x Store saw blade(s) in such a man-

ner that nobody can get hurt.

A

Risk of sawhead kickback (the

saw blade is caught in the work piece

and the sawhead kicked up all of a

sudden)!

x Make sure the saw blade is suitable

for the work piece material.

x Hold the handle firmly. When the

saw blade enters the work piece, the

kickback risk is particularly high.

x Cut thin or thin-walled work pieces

only with fine-toothed saw blades.

x Always use sharp saw blades.

Replace blunt saw blades immedi-

ately. Increased risk of kickback

when a blunt tooth gets caught by

the work piece's surface.

x Do not jam work pieces.

x Avoid lateral pressure on the saw

blade when grooving – use a stock

clamp.

x If in doubt, check work piece for

inclusion of foreign matter (e.g. nails

or screws).

x Do not cut more than one work

piece at a time – and also no bun-

dles containing several individual

pieces. Risk of personal injury if indi-

vidual pieces are caught by the saw

blade uncontrolled.

c

Entanglement hazard!

x Ensure that no parts of the body or

clothing can be caught and drawn in

by rotating components (no neck-

ties, no gloves, no loose-fitting

clothes; contain long hair with a hair-

net).

x Never attempt to cut any work

pieces which contain

 ropes,

 strings,

 cords,

 cables or

 wires, or to which any of the

above are attached.

A

Hazard generated by insuffi-

cient personal protection gear!

x Wear ear protection.

x Wear safety goggles.

x Wear dust mask.

x Wear suitable work clothes.

x Wear non-skid foot wear.

A

Risk of injury by inhaled wood

dust!

x Some types of wood dust (e.g. oak,

beech, ash) may cause cancer

when inhaled. Work only with a suit-

able dust collector connected to the

machine. The dust collector must

comply with the data stated in the

technical specifications.

x Make sure that as little as possible

wood dust can escape into the envi-

ronment:

 remove wood dust deposit in the

work area (do not blow away!);

 fix any leakages on the dust col-

lector;

 ensure good ventilation.

A

Hazard generated by modifica-

tion of the machine or the use of non-

OEM parts not tested and approved

by the manufacturer!

x Assemble the machine in strict

accordance with these instructions.

x Use only parts approved by the

manufacturer. This applies espe-

cially for:

by a qualified specialist. Have dam-

aged switches replaced by a service

centre. Do not operate the machine

if the switch can not be turned ON or

OFF.

x Keep handles free of oil and grease.

A

Risk of injury by noise!

x Wear ear protection.

x For reasons of noise protection do

not use warped saw blades. A

warped blade is exiting vibrations to

an especially large extent, which

means noise.

A

Laser radiation hazard!

A laser beam can cause serious eye

injury.

Therefore, avoid direct eye contact with

the laser beam. Never look into the laser

outlet.

3.3 Symbols Used

blade guard: the saw blade remains cov-

ered and the sawhead cannot be low-

ered unless the safety lock is disen-

gaged by pushing it to the side.

Fence (29)

The fence keeps the work piece from

moving while it is cut. The fence must

always be installed when sawing.

Installation

For safe working the machine must be

securely fastened to a sturdy support.

 This support may be a firmly

attached plywood sheet or a work

bench.

 As an alternative the machine can

be mounted on the work stand,

available as optional accessory:

 For mobile use the machine can be

screw fastened to a plywood sheet

or wood core plywood sheet

(500 mm x 500 mm, thickness

19 mm minimum). When using the

machine the sheet must be attached

to a work bench with G-clamps.

 The ideal height of the base is

800 mm.

 The saw must stand securely, even

when cutting larger work pieces.

1. Drill four holes into the support (not

required if mounted on the work

stand).

2. Firmly bolt machine to the support.

9.1 Changing the Saw Blade

A

Danger!

x Directly after cutting the saw

blade can be very hot – burning

hazard! Let a hot saw blade cool

down. Do not clean a hot saw

blade with combustible liquids.

x Risk of injury, even with the saw

blade at standstill. When loosen-

ing and tightening the arbor bolt,

the retractable blade guard must

encompass the saw blade. Wear

gloves when changing blades.

x Laser radiation hazard!

Always disable the laser guide

when servicing the machine!

1. Arrest sawhead assembly in the

upper position with the transport

lock.

2. Unscrew screw (41) fully.

3. Swing the retractable blade guard

(43) up.

4. Loosen screw (42) on the right.

5. Fully unscrew Allen head screw

(45).

6. Lift blade cover (43) and flange

guard (44) and put assembly

wrench on the arbor bolt.

 saw spindle (47),

 saw blade,

 outer blade flange,

 inner blade flange (48).

11. Mount the new saw blade –

pay attention to the direction: when

viewed from the left (opened) side,

the arrow on the saw blade must

point in a clockwise direction!

A

Danger!

Use only suitable saw blades,

designed for the maximum speed

(see "Technical Specifications") –

when using unsuitable or damaged

saw blades, there is a risk of parts

being hurled away explosion-like by

the centrifugal force.

Do not use:

 saw blades made of high speed

steel (HSS);

 damaged saw blades;

 cut-off wheel blades.

A

Danger!

 Mount saw blade using only OEM

parts.

 Do not use loose-fitting reducing

rings; the saw blade could work

loose.

 Saw blades have to be mounted

in such way that they do not wob-

ble or run out of balance and can

not work loose during operation.

12. Slide the outer blade flange on –

the plain side must point towards the

saw blade!

13. Insert the arbor bolt (left-hand

thread!) and hand-tighten it.

To keep the saw blade from turning

press the lock knob, while at the

same time turning the saw blade by

hand until the blade lock engages.

A

Danger!

 Do not extend your wrench to get

more leverage.

 Do not hit your assembly wrench

with a hammer to tighten the

arbor bolt.

14. Re-install blade cover and flange

guard:

 Fit Allen head screw (45) and

tighten.

 Tigthen screw (42) on the right.

15. Insert screw (41) again and tighten.

16. Check the function. To do so, push

the safety lock to the side and lower

the sawhead:

 The retractable blade guard must

open without touching the saw

blade or any other parts

 When returning the sawhead to

its starting position the retracta-

ble blade guard must return auto-

matically so that the entire saw

blade is covered.

 Turn the saw blade by hand. The

saw blade must turn freely in any

possible sawhead position with-

out touching other parts.

9.2 Replacing the Table

Insert

A

Danger!

If the table insert is damaged

there is a risk that small parts may

become stuck between table insert

and the saw blade, causing the saw

blade to jam. Replace a damaged

table insert immediately!

1. Loosen Allen head screws (49).

2. Remove the fence (50).

3. Loosen the table insert fixing

screws.

4. Remove the table insert (51).

5. Put in a new table insert.

6. Tighten the table insert fixing

screws.

7. Install the fence and align it.

9.3 Adjusting the Fence

1. Loosen Allen head screws (52).

2. Adjust fence (53) so that it is exactly

square with the saw blade when the

rotating table is locked in the 0°

position.

3. Tighten the Allen head screws.

9.4 Replacing the Laser

Guide's Batteries

A

Laser radiation hazard!

Always disable the laser guide

when servicing the machine!

1. Unscrew the battery compartment

cover (54).

2. Remove the battery set (two button

cells AG13).

3. Insert fresh battery set, positive pole

first. The polarity is imprinted above

the battery compartment.

4. Screw the battery compartment

cover (54) on.

nizable by

 intermittent operation of the motor;

 interference in radio and TV recep-

tion while the motor is running;

 motor stalling.

To check or replace the carbon brushes:

1. Unplug power cable.

2. Remove plug holding the carbon

brushes from the motor housing with

a suitable screwdriver.

Illustrated is the replacement of the

front carbon brush (59). The second

carbon brush is on the opposite

side.

3. Pull carbon brushes (59) out and

check. Each carbon brush should be

at least 6 mm long.

4. Put intact carbon brushes back into

the brush holder. The two lugs on

the sides of the small metal plate

must fit into the grooves in the brush

holder.

5. Replace the plug.

6. Check functioning of the saw.

9.7 Cleaning

Remove chips and saw dust with brush

or vacuum cleaner from:

 the setting devices;

 the operating elements;

 the motor ventilation slots;

 the space below the table insert.

9.8 Storage

A

Danger!

x Store the saw in such way that it

cannot be used or tampered with

by unauthorized persons.

x Make sure that nobody can get

injured by the stored machine.

A

Caution!

x Do not store saw unprotected

outdoors or in damp environ-

ment.

x Observe the permissible ambient

conditions (see "Technical Speci-

fications").

9.9 Maintenance

Prior to every use

x Remove saw dust and chips with a

vacuum cleaner or brush.

x Check power cable and plug for

damage; if necessary have dam-

aged parts replaced by a qualified

electrician.

x Check all moving parts and make

sure that they can move freely and

smoothly across their entire ranges.

Periodically, depending on operating

conditions

x Check all nuts, bolts and screws for

proper fit and tightness and tighten

where necessary.

x Check the pull-back springs of the

sawhead (the sawhead must return

by spring power to its upper starting

position), replace if necessary.

x Apply light coat of oil to all guide ele-

ments.

 For long stock use suitable supports

on both sides of the saw.

 When performing bevel cuts, hold

the work piece on the right side of

the saw blade.

 When making cuts that will result in

small cutoffs, use an auxiliary fence

(this may be a suitable wooden

board, fixed to the machine's fence

with screws).

 When cutting warped or bent work

pieces, make sure that you place

work piece so that the convex side

(i.e. the outer side of the bow)

against the fence.

 Do not cut any work piece while it is

standing on edge; always place it

flat on the rotating table.

 Keep the supporting surfaces clean

– in particular, remove resin residue

with a suitable cleaning and mainte-

nance spray.
