Setting / Adjustment

4.1 Mains connection

Prior to commissioning make sure that the mains
voltage complies with the operating voltage stated on
the machine's rating plate.

4.2 Chip extraction

Danger
Substances that are harmful to
health must be taken up with an M-
suction device.
Connect the machine to a suitable external dust
extractor during all work generating a considerable
amount of dust. The air velocity must be at least 20
m/s (65.6 ft / sec.).
The internal diameter of hose connector 3 (Fig. 1) is
35 mm ( 1 3/8 in.).

4.3 Saw blade selection

Use a sharp tool to obtain a good cut quality and
select a tool from the following list according to
material and application:
For cuts along and across the grain in soft or
hard wood:
- TCT circular saw blade Ø 237 x 2.5 x 30 mm (9
21/64 x 3/32 in. x 30 mm), 24 teeth
For cuts especially along the grain in soft or hard
wood:
- TCT circular saw blade Ø 237 x 2.5 x 30 mm (9
21/64 x 3/32 in. x 30 mm), 12 teeth
For cuts especially across the grain in soft or
hard wood:
- TCT circular saw blade Ø 237 x 2.5 x 30 mm (9
21/64 x 3/32 in. x 30 mm), 56 teeth

4.4 Saw blade change

Danger
Pull the power plug during all
service work.

Press the push-button 2 (Fig. 2) and pull the
locking lever 19 upwards. Now the saw shaft is
locked in position and the gearshift lever locked.
You can lock the retractable saw guard in an
open position with the aid of the pre-feed lever 1
(Fig. 2) or manually to make the tool change
easier.

Using the Allen key 5 (bracket Fig. 2), release
the flange screw 18 (Fig. 3) counter clockwise.
Now remove both the screw and the front
clamping flange 12.

You can now remove the saw blade.

The clamping flanges must be free of adhering
parts.

Pay attention to the sense of rotation when
inserting the saw blade.

Afterwards, push on the clamping flange, apply
the flange screw and tighten it by turning it
clockwise.

Close the retractable saw guard. To do so,
press the locking lever 19 (Fig. 2) downwards.

4.5 Riving knife/splitter

Danger
Pull the power plug during all
service work.
The riving knife / splitter 15 (Fig. 3) prevents the saw
blade from jamming during longitudinal cutting. The
correct distance to the saw blade is shown in (Fig. 4).

For adjustment purposes, release the screw 4
(Fig. 3) with the Allen key 5 that is included in
the supply (Fig. 2)

Adjust the riving knife/splitter by moving it in its
longitudinal groove and retighten the screw
afterwards.
