8. Attachment and operation
Before starting the equipment
Make sure the machine stands securely, i.e. bolt it
to a workbench or solid base. There are two holes
for this purpose in the machine foot. • The saw table
must be mounted correctly.
• All covers and safety devices have to be properly
fitted before the machine is switched on.
• It must be possible for the blade to run freely.
• When working with wood that has been processed
before, watch out for foreign bodies such as nails
or screws etc.
• Before you actuate the On/Off switch, make sure
that the saw blade is correctly fitted and that the
machine's moving parts run smoothly.
• Before you connect the machine to the power
supply, make sure the data on the rating plate is
the same as that for your mains.

• Mount the frame struts above (C), each with 4 car-
riage bolts M8 x 16, 4 washers and 4 nuts on the
frame feet (A) as shown in Fig. 3.
• Place a cardboard box behind the machine and
then carefully tip the machine backward until the
machine rests on its housing.
• Place the previously assembled frame (Fig. 2) un-
der the base plate (E) of the band saw; screw it into
place by hand with 4 hex bolts M8x45, 8 washers,
4 circlips and 4 hex nuts. (Fig. 3)
• Set the machine with the base on a level surface
and tighten all the screws and nuts firmly.
8.2 Assembling the work table, (Fig. 4-6)
• Lay the table insert (a) in the recess in the work
table intended for this (Fig. 4). (To replace, disas-
semble the work table in reverse order.)
• Place the band saw blade through the slot on the
machine table. Place the machine table on the ta-
ble guide so that the fixing screw (b) fits through
the bracket (c).
• Screw the machine table tight with the wing nut
(E).
• Check that the bandsaw blade runs freely and does
not touch the table.
• Using the adjustment screw (F) to adjust the table
to a right-angle.
– Use a set square –
• Counter the adjustment screw (F) and tighten the
wing nut (E).
• Set the scale pointer (G) to 0.
• Adjust the angle scale (I):
• By loosening the screws (H) and shifting the angle
scale (I) until the scale pointer (G) points to 0. Fix
screws.
8.3 Assembly of the length end stop (Fig. 7+8)
• Turn the four knurled screws (J), each with a
flat washer, roughly 5 mm into the table surface
(Fig. 7)
• Place the guidance tube so that it touches the table
and tighten the four knurled screws (J).
• Now, put the length end stop (5) on the guidance
pipe, to the left of the saw blade, and clamp it
tightly. The end stop pipe should now be parallel
to the table groove.
