Mounting the Saw Blade
If required, clean all parts to be mounted prior
to assembly.
– Place the new saw blade onto the interior
clamping flange 15.
Take care during the mounting that the cut-
ting direction of the teeth (direction of the
arrow on the saw blade) agrees with the di-
rection of the arrow on the casing!
– Place on the clamping flange 14 and the
screw 12.
Press the spindle lock 13 until it engages and
tighten the screw turning in anticlockwise di-
rection.
– Push the lever 11 downward and, at the
same time, rotate the retracting blade guard
22 downward again until the lever engages.
– Screw in and tighten the locking screw 10
again.
Transport (see figure g)
Before any work on the machine itself, pull
the mains plug.
Before transporting the power tool, the follow-
ing steps must be carried out:
– Bring the power tool into the table saw work-
ing position. (see "Working Position", page
67)
– Position the parallel guide 63 completely
over the protection guard 65.
To lock the parallel guide, push the clamping
knob 66 downward.
– Attach the hold-down stick onto the pins 69.
– Insert the lower saw blade cover 68 into the
saw table 24.
– Remove all accessories that cannot be
mounted firmly to the power tool.
If possible, place unused saw blades in an
enclosed container for transport.
– For lifting or transporting, hold the power
tool by the recessed grips 4 on the side of the
saw table 24.
The power tool should always be carried by
two persons in order to avoid back injuries.
When transporting the power tool, use only
the transport devices and never use the
protective devices.
