fPull the saw forwards.
fAllow the saw to slide back slowly.
fYou can push the notch lever [1-9] down after
a few millimetres.
If the saw continues to slide back, the notch le-
ver will engage in the guide rod and fix the saw in
the centre of the table (bench sawing position).
9.1a
Rip cuts
fPlace the saw blade on the centre of the table,
see section 9.1.
fUse the preset profile setting rail as a leng-
thwise ruler (fig. 1) to guide the workpiece.
fYou can adjust the cutting width using the
scales.
fGuide the workpiece by hand, keeping your
arms away from the saw blade's centre line.
fUse the push stick [11-2] to guide the work-
piece accurately past the saw blade.
fPlace the push stick in the accessory holder
[11-4] when not in use.
9.1b
Angled cuts
The mitre angle of the saw blade needs to be
adjusted for angled cuts, see section 8.7.
9.1c
Non-through cuts
If the guard has been removed, the riving knife
can be adjusted by firmly pulling by two locking
positions. The riving knife is used in the upper
locking position for all applications, except for
non-through cuts.
Before starting work
fRemove the upper guard [6-4].
fMove the riving knife [6-1] into the lower
locking position by pushing it down firmly.
Creating non-through cuts
When executing non-through cuts, pay particular
attention that the tool is guided precisely. To do
this, push the workpiece down firmly onto the
table. Select the cutting sequence so that the
workpiece side already sawed out is not the fence
side (risk of kickback).

Rabbeting
fSet the cutting depth and fence of the first side
of the rebate.
fCarry out the first saw cut of the rebate by gui-
ding the workpiece by hand. Keep your arms
away from the saw blade's centre line.
fUse the push stick [11-2] to guide the work-
piece past the saw blade.
fTurn the workpiece.
fSet the cutting depth and fence of the second
side of the rebate.
fMake the second saw cut of the rebate.
fUse the push stick [11-2] to guide the work-
piece past the saw blade.
Rabbeting on workpieces ≤ 12 mm with a circu-
lar trimming saw (with the saw blade locked)
fUse the fence as a cross-cutting fence (fig. 3).
fObserve the manufacturer's instructions for
cross cuts (see section 9.2a).
NEVER use the fence as a rip fence when
rabbeting on the short side.
Grooving
fAdjust the cutting depth on the saw blade.
fUse the fence as a guide.
fGuide the workpiece by hand. Keep your arms
away from the saw blade's centre line.
fUse the push stick [11-2] to guide the work-
piece past the saw blade.
fRepeat the process until the required grooving
depth is achieved.
After finishing work
fAfter executing the non-through cuts, move
the riving knife [6-1] back into the upper posi-
tion and attach the guard [6-4].
Complicated concealed cut process
fe.g. plunge saws, resawing, dadoing, profile
routing and fluting are not permitted.
