See also figures R1 – R6.
Positioning the riving knife (see figures b1–b2)
Note: If necessary, clean all parts to be fitted before you po-
sition them.
– Turn the crank (20) clockwise as far as possible so that
the saw blade (33) is in the highest possible position
above the saw table.
– Loosen the clamping lever (46).
– Slide the riving knife (7) towards the clamping lever (46)
until it can be pulled upwards.
– Pull the riving knife all the way up until it is positioned ex-
actly over the centre of the saw blade.
– Allow both pins (47) to engage in the lower bore holes in
the riving knife and then retighten the clamping lever
(46).
Fitting the table insert (see figure c)
– Hook the table insert (32) into the rear recesses (48) of
the tool chamber.
– Guide the table insert down.
– Press down on the table insert until it engages in the front
of the tool chamber.
The front side of the table insert (32) must lie flush with or a
little below the saw table; the rear must lie flush with or a
little above the saw table.
Fitting the protective cover (see figures d1–d2)
Note: Only fit the protective cover when the riving knife is in
the top position directly over the centre of the saw blade
(see figure b2). Do not fit the protective cover when the riv-
ing knife is in the bottom position (position when delivered/
position for sawing grooves) (see figure b1).
– Loosen the clamping lever (49) and remove the protect-
ive cover (6) from the bracket (22).
– Hold the saw blade guard (upper metal rail) of the pro-
tective cover (6) with one hand, while using the other
hand to move the clamping lever (49) up.
– Push the guide pin (50) backwards into the groove on the
riving knife (7).
– Move the protective cover (6) down until the saw blade
guard (upper metal rail) is parallel with the surface of the
saw table (17).
– Push the clamping lever (49) down. The clamping lever
must be felt and heard to engage; the protective cover (6)
must be securely and safely fitted.
Always check that the blade guard can move properly
u
before use. Do not use the power tool if the blade
guard cannot move freely and does not close immedi-
ately.

Fitting the saw table extension (see figure e)
Use the "saw table extension" fastening set (43) (2 fastening
screws, 2 washers, 1 open-ended spanner) to fit the exten-
sion.
– Screw the saw table extension(10) to the guide bars
(24). Do this by fixing the guide bars in place with the
open-ended spanner while tightening the fastening
screws using the hex key.
The recesses in the saw table extension must be facing
upwards.
Fitting the parallel guide (see figure f)
The parallel guide (8) can be positioned on either the left or
the right of the saw blade.
– Loosen the clamping handle (51) of the parallel guide
(8). This lightens the load on the V guide (44).
– First insert the parallel guide with the V guide into the
guide groove (30) of the saw table. Then position the par-
allel guide in the front guide groove (35) of the saw table.
The parallel guide can now be moved freely.
– To secure the parallel guide, push the clamping handle
(51) down.
Fitting the additional parallel guide (see figure g)
To saw narrow workpieces and bevel angles, you must fit
the additional parallel guide (52) on the parallel guide (8).
The additional parallel guide can be fitted on the left or right
of the parallel guide (8) as required.
Use the "additional parallel guide" fastening set (39) (two
fastening screws, two washers, two wing nuts) for fitting the
guide.
– Slide the fastening screws through the lateral holes on the
parallel guide (8).
– The heads of the screws are used to guide the additional
parallel guide.
– Slide the additional parallel guide (52) over the heads of
the fastening screws.
– Place the washers on the fastening screws and tighten the
screws using the wing nuts.
Fitting the angle guide (see figure h1−h2)
– Push the rail (53) of the angle guide (3) into one of the
guide grooves (9) provided in the saw table.
Note: The position of the angle guide can be fixed in the left
guide groove by tightening the knurled screw (54) on the
slide carriage (2).
To make it easier to position long workpieces, the angle
guide can be extended with the profile rail (34).
– If necessary, fit the profile rail on the angle guide using
the fastening set (55).
