Using the saw guard
(Fig.26A-26B-27)
For safety and health reasons, the saw cover must be connected to a dust extraction system. This
must have a flow rate of min 1200m³ / h at 20 m / s.
The connection at the bottom of the saw unit has a diameter of 120 mm, on the saw guard (via the
support pipe) with a diameter of 100 mm. The saw guard itself must be set so that the saw blade and
the scoring blade are protected and the piece to be machined can be moved just under the cover. The
height adjustment of the hood is done by pulling back the pin (fig. 27, 2). With normal use pull the pin
(fig. 27,2) backwards and lower the saw blade onto the work table. The saw cover will automatically
raise when entering workpieces up to a certain thickness. For workpieces where a larger cutting height
is required: grasp the saw blade on the handle (4), pull the pin (2) back and place the saw blade in the
desired position. Push the clamping pin 2 forward again and the saw blade is fixed. The saw cover can
no longer lower, but will go up if a higher workpiece is inserted. To lock the saw blade in both
directions, screw in the clamp pin (fig. 27,1). To set a maximum cutting height, place the ring (3) in the
desired position.
The saw blade has a narrow cover for sawing under 90 °. To place it, slide the plate (fig 26A, 1) down
into the key holes and attach the 2 clamp screws (26A, 2).
The wide hood serves for cutting under 45 °. This is also fixed with 2 clamping screws (fig 26B, 2) and
also slides into 2 key holes.
