Safety information
Specified conditions of use
This machine is intended for ripping and crosscutting of solid timber, faced board, particle board,
wood-core plywood and similar wood-derived materials.
Do not cut round stock without a suitable fixture, as
the rotating saw blade could turn the workpiece.
Any other use is considered to be not as specified
and not allowed. Damages caused by unspecified
use are not covered by the manufacturer's liability.
Modification of the machine or use of parts not
tested and approved by the equipment manufacturer can cause unforeseeable damage.
General safety information
Follow the basic safety requirements for the operation of power tools, to keep the risk of
- personal injury
- fire
- electric shock
as little as possible.
Please note in particular:
A circular saw is a dangerous tool which can, due to
operator carelessness, cause serious personal
injury. It is therefore recommended you follow the
safety information given below, and know and follow
the legal regulations pertaining to the operation of
circular saws.
Danger!
A
The circular saw shall only be started and
operated by persons familiar with circular
saws, and who are at any time aware of the
dangers associated with the operation of
such tool.
Persons under 16 years of age shall use this
saw only under the supervision of an instructor in the course of their vocational training.
The following residual risks do principally
exist with circular saws, and can not, even by
employing safety devices, completely eliminated:
- Risk of injury by touching the revolving saw
blade: Keep sufficient distance to the saw
blade when sawing. Use push stick if necessary.
Prevent adverse body positions. Ensure
firm footing, and keep your balance at all
times.
- Risk of injury by touching the saw blade at
standstill: Lower the saw blade after sawing until the blade guards rest on the table.
Wear gloves when changing blades.
- Hazard by cluttered work area (e.g. by cutoffs on the floor):
Always keep work area clean.
- Risk of injury by objects being caught during sawing by the revolving saw blade (e.g.
tools on the saw table or metal parts hidden in the workpiece):
Keep saw table clean. If in doubt check
workpiece for inclusion of foreign matter.
- Risk of kickback (workpiece is caught by
the saw blade and thrown against the operator):
Always work with a properly set riving
knife. Keep blade sharp and do not jam.
- Hazard generated by environmental influences:
Do not operate the circular saw in rain or in
damp environment. Ensure sufficient lighting. Do not operate the circular saw near
inflammable liquids or gases.
- Danger to other persons in the work area:
Keep bystanders, particularly children, out
of the danger zone.
- Hazard generated by overloading:
Use circular saw within its limits, and only
as specified.
- Danger by machine faults:
Check the circular saw for damage before
every use. Before switching ON check to
see that keys or setting tools are removed.
Do not operate the saw with a damaged
ON/OFF switch. Keep knobs and handles
free of oil and grease.

Symbols shown on the machine
Danger!
A
Disregard of the following warnings can lead
to severe personal injury or material damage.
Read instructions.
Do not reach into the revolving saw blade.
Wear hearing protection.
f
Use push stick if distance
between saw blade and rip fence
is £ 120 mm.
Cut round stock only with a suitable holding device.
Use table extension, if otherwise
workpiece would fall off the table
after cutting.
Max. saw blade Ø 250 mm
Saw blade arbor bore Ø 30 mm
Max. blade speed 4000 min
Max. depth of cut 80 mm
Safety devices
Push stick
The push stick serves as an extension of the right
hand and protects against accidental contact with
the saw blade.
Always use push stick if distance
rip fence saw blade is £ 120 mm.
In order for the push stick to be always at hand, it
can be stored in a sheath in the machine's housing
(arrow).
Operating controls
On/off switch with motor protection
· To start main saw blade
= set rotary switch to ON.
-1
· To start scribing blade= push green button.
· To stop everything
= set rotary switch to OFF or hit red button.
Riving knife
The riving knife prevents the workpiece from being
caught by the rising teeth of the saw blade and
being thrown against the operator.
Always have riving knife installed during operation.
Blade guard
The blade guard protects against accidental contact
with the blade and keeps chips from flying about.
Always have blade guard installed during operation.
A motor protection switch is built into the
3
switch enclosure, to switch the motor off in
the event of an overload.
An undervoltage relay trips in the event of a
voltage failure, to prevent a restarting of the
saw when the power is restored.
To start the saw again after a power failure
the on/off switch has to be set to ON.

Handwheel for blade tilt setting
The saw blade can be tilted steplessly between 0°
and 45°.
The centre of motion is at saw table level, so the
depth of cut remains the same, regardless of the
bevel angle.
Ratchet lock lever
The set bevel angle can be locked with a ratchet
lock lever, so it does not change during sawing.
There are several ratchet lock levers on the
3
saw. If the swivelling range is not sufficient,
the lever position can be shifted:
pull lever up, turn and let engage again.
Handwheel for setting the depth of cut
The depth of cut can be adjusted by turning the
handwheel.
To compensate for possible play in the blade
3
height setting mechanism, always raise the
blade to the desired position.
Travelling sizing table
The travelling sizing table provides for exact workpiece guiding during the cutting operation.
Travelling sizing tables are available in 950 mm and
1800 mm length.
The travelling sizing table is mounted on the saw to
the left of the saw blade (see „Assembly and connection").

· To move the travelling sizing table pull travel
lock lever and turn by 90˚.
2.5
· To lock, return travelling sizing table to its rest
position, then turn travel lock lever by 90˚ and let
engage in borehole.
· wide edge:
- for cutting thick stock
(max. 65 mm).
Hold-down plate
The hold-down plate is fitted into the fitting hole provided on the travelling sizing table.
The hold-down plate firmly holds long stock on the
travelling sizing table during cutting. This is especially useful for trimming cuts.
Rip fence
The rip fence slides onto the saw from the righthand side and locks on the saw’s front.
For locking always tighten the lower lock
3
lever, to prevent jamming.
The auxiliary fence extrusion can be repositioned
after loosening the two wing nuts:
· small edge (as shown):
- for cutting thin stock;
- when the saw blade is tilted.
Mitre fence
The mitre fence is pushed into the groove of the
travelling sizing table and locked in position with the
lock lever (black arrow).
For mitre cuts the fence extrusion turns through 45˚
in both directions. To set a mitre angle loosen lock
lever (grey arrow).

Connection to dust collector
Danger!
A
Some kinds of wooden dust (e.g. from oak
and ash) can be carcinogenic when inhaled.
When working indoors always connect to a suitable dust collector (air speed at suction port of
saw ³ 20 m/s).
2.6
Caution! Operation without a dust collector is
A
only possible
- outdoors;
- for a short duration (up to max.
30 minutes);
