between the wood grain, but we name the method
where we saw off a part of the width of the panel
(lengthwise sawing) and when we cut off the length
(cross-cutting or cutting-off).
For both sawing methods one of the
fences must be used. Therefor never
saw without a fence!
Attention! Before you start sawing, first check the
following:
1. Is the saw blade secured?
2. Are all the locking handles secured?
3. Is the fence parallel to the saw blade?
4. Is the protective cap working properly?
5. Are you wearing safety goggles?
6. Is the saw blade not rubbing against anything?
It is absolutely necessary to take these
points into consideration before you start
work!
Lengthwise sawing
•
Secure the fence to the correct measuring
position and remove the cut-off guide from the
bench carriage.
•
Turn the saw blade approximately 2 mm
higher than the total thickness of the wood to
be sawn.
•
Press the wood lightly towards the bench and
let it glide against the cut-off fence.
Remain at least 3 cm. from the front of
the saw blade before you switch on the
engine. The side of the wood which is
against the fence must be completely
straight. Keep your hands at least 10 cm
away from the saw track to be followed.
•
Switch on the engine and wait until the saw
blade has reached the maximum number of
revolutions before you start sawing.
•
While you press the wood against the bench
and the fence, you can carefully push the
wood through the saw blade without forcing it.
•
Never pull the workpiece backwards. If
necessary, switch off the engine first without
altering the position of the workpiece.
Lengthwise sawing with a (vertical) mitre
This method is practically the same, except that the
saw blade is placed at the angle required.
With this type of method the fence may
only be along the righthand side of the
10
sawblade.
Lengthwise sawing of narrow workpieces
Assume that this process is extremely
dangerous.
Take all the necessary safety measures and
continually push the workpiece through (until behind
the saw blade) using a synthetic aid instead of by
hand.
Crosswise sawing
•
Remove the fence and apply the cross-cut
fence in the righthand carriage.
•
Adjust the height of the saw blade (see
lengthwise sawing).
•
Press the workpiece against the cross-cut
fence and keep at least 2,5 cm distance from
the front of the saw blade.
•
Switch on the engine and wait until the
maximum number of revolutions has been
reached.
•
Press the workpiece against the fence and the
bench. Carefully push the wood through the
saw blade. Continue until behind the saw
blade. Then switch off the engine and keep
this position until the saw blade has stopped
completely before you remove the wood.
•
Never pull the wood back. If necessary, switch
the engine off and keep the position until the
saw blade has stopped completely.
Crosswise sawing with a vertical mitre
This method is practically the same, except that
the saw blade is placed in the angle required.
Only place the cross-cut fence on the
righthand side of the saw blade. Never
saw too small pieces of wood. Never
use your hands to carry out difficult
operations.
Crosswise sawing with a horizontal mitre
With this method the cross-cut fence must be
secured at the angle required. Keep the
workpiece pressed firmly against the cross-cut
fence and the bench before you start cutting off.
