Mounting the jigsaw
To mount the jigsaw, the machine plate has to be removed (see the
chapter "Installing/removing and adjusting the machine plate", as well
as Fig. 2.23 to Fig. 2.28). First remove the gap insert, then remove the
machine plate and reinstall the appropriate machine plate. You can
hang the gap insert that is not on use on the hook.
Insert the gap insert for jigsaws into the machine plate (Fig. 2.42). Align the jigsaw
on the machine plate in such a way that the saw blade runs in the centre of the
saw opening (Fig. 2.43). Mount the jigsaw as illustrated (Fig. 2.44). Mount the ma-
chine plate and once again check that the jigsaw blade is running freely. Fasten
the safety shield centred over the jigsaw blade (Fig. 2.45).
OPERATION
INITIAL USE
CAUTION
Warning: electrical voltage
Always pull out the mains plug when the table is not in use.
Connection to the power supply: Insert the connector plug of the device into the
safety switch and lay an extension cord (not included) from the safety switch to the
mains power socket (Fig. 3.1).
The safety switch also contains a thermal cut-out. It trips if the current consump-
tion is too high. Prior to first use, press the button to the side (Fig. 3.2). Then press
the red button (OFF) (Fig. 3.3).
Fasten the switch clamp to the device. Press the green button (ON) and check that
the machine rotates freely in the gap insert. Then press the red button (OFF). If the
power is interrupted due to excess voltage, wait 5 - 10 minutes before pressing the
thermostatic switch again. Then press the ON button (Fig. 3.2 - Fig. 3.4).
NOTICE
Before starting work, always check that the riving knife and all fastening parts are
securely fastened.
STATIONARY SAWING WITH THE CIRCULAR HANDSAW
(FUNCTION: CIRCULAR BENCH SAW) - 90° CUTS
WARNING
Risk of injury due to lack of an emergency stop
When the power tool is not connected via the safety switch, it cannot be switched
off in an emergency.
Always connect the circular handsaw to the safety switch (Fig. 3.1 - Fig. 3.4).
CAUTION
Risk of injury from flying parts
If you do not use a safety shield and/or dust extractor, there is risk of injury from
parts flying around.
Always work with the safety shield and switch on dust extraction at the safety
shield.
CAUTION
Risk of injury at the saw blade
There is risk of injury from touching the rotating saw blade.
Always make sure that your hands are kept far enough from the rotating saw
blade. Always use the push stick for narrow workpieces.
Sawing with the parallel guide:
CAUTION
Risk of injury from incorrectly mounted parallel guide
There is a risk of injury from the workpiece being kicked back.
The short aluminium profile may not be pushed in beyond the end of the saw
blade, to prevent workpiece kickback during cutting (Fig. 3.6).
Mount the aluminium profile on the long aluminium profile. To do so, unfasten the
two hexagon socket screws, push the aluminium profile onto the two square nuts
and subsequently tighten the screws (Fig. 3.5 and Fig. 3.6). With the eccentric
levers open, align the parallel guide for the desired cutting width. To ensure paral-
lel alignment of the parallel guide, pay attention to the markings on the profiles of
the table. Then close the two eccentric levers.
Connecting the dust extraction: Connect the end of the dust extraction hose with
the receptacle at the safety shield. Now fasten the dust extraction hose at the
safety shield holder, using the hook and loop straps. Switch on the circular hand-
saw via the safety switch. Push the workpiece towards the circular saw blade in the
direction of the arrow until the blade cuts all the way through the workpiece. After
sawing, switch off the circular handsaw using the safety switch (Fig. 3.8). For nar-
row workpieces, always use the push stick included in the scope of delivery
(Fig. 3.9). Pay attention to the specified max. workpiece widths (Fig. 3.10). The
parallel guide can also be mounted on the left of the circular saw blade if neces-
sary. To this end, the aluminium profile has to be reinstalled on the parallel guide
(Fig. 3.11).
Sawing with the angle stop: Mount the aluminium profile (1.13) of the parallel
guide on the angle stop (Fig. 2.17 - Fig. 2.22). Push the angle stop into the guide
slot (Fig. 3.12). Make sure that the black end of the stop runs under the safety
shield, to ensure that the cover is lifted up correctly (Fig. 3.13). Now retract the
angle stop and rest the workpiece against the angle stop. Switch on the circular
handsaw at the safety switch. Push the workpiece at the angle stop towards the
circular saw (Fig. 3.14) in the direction of the arrow, until the blade cuts all the
way through the workpiece. Then switch off the circular handsaw using the safety
switch. The angle stop makes it possible to saw workpieces at angles from 0° to
60°. Loosen the handle screw, set the required angle and firmly tighten the handle
screw again (Fig. 3.15).
STATIONARY SAWING WITH THE CIRCULAR HANDSAW
(FUNCTION: CIRCULAR BENCH SAW) - VERTICAL MITRE CUTS
The circular handsaw must be realigned for vertical mitre cuts. Set the required
mitre angle. Then mount the circular handsaw as described in the chapter "Mount-
ing the circular handsaw".
Circular handsaw with integrated riving knife:
– For alignment, see Fig. 3.16 to Fig. 3.19.
– For installation, see Fig. 2.29 and Fig. 2.41
Circular handsaws without an integrated riving knife:
– For installation and alignment, see Fig. 7.18 to Fig. 7.31.
If necessary, the safety shield can be adjusted laterally so that the saw blade can
turn freely and with sufficient space under the safety shield. Make sure that the
saw blade can rotate freely in the gap insert and that the saw blade is aligned par-
allel to the machine plate.
USING THE WORKPIECE STOPPER
The scope of delivery includes four workpiece stoppers for machining workpieces
(Fig. 3.20).
