Remain at least 3 cm. from the front of
the saw blade before you switch on the
motor. 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.
• S witch on the motor and wait until the saw
blade has reached the maximum number of
revolutions before you start sawing.
• W hile you press the wood against the bench
and the fence, you can carefully push the
wood through the saw blade without forcing it.
• N ever pull the workpiece backwards. If
necessary, switch off the motor 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
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 push stick instead
of by hand.
Crosswise sawing
• R emove the fence and apply the cross-cut
fence in the righthand carriage.
• A djust the height of the saw blade (see
lengthwise sawing).
• P ress the workpiece against the cross-cut
fence and keep at least 2,5 cm distance from
the front of the saw blade.
• S witch on the motor and wait until the
maximum number of revolutions has been
reached.
• P ress 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 motor and keep
this position until the saw blade has stopped

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.
5. MAINTENANCE
These machines have been designed to operate
over a long period of time with a minimum of
maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation
depends upon proper machine care and regular
cleaning.
Transporting the bench saw
Before transporting the bench saw, the following
steps must be carried out:
• P ull the mains plug
• T urn the hand-wheel 5 (Fig. A) in anticlockwise
• R emove all accessories that cannot be
If possible, place unused saw blades in an
enclosed container for transport
• S lide the saw-table extension 9 completely
• W ind the mains cable and bind it
• F or lifting or transport, carry the main table 2
completely before you remove the wood.

saw blade has stopped completely.
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.
Make sure that the machine is not live
when carrying out maintenance work on
the motor.
