  • Cast-iron squaring fence for maximum stability and cutting repeatability
  • Rack and pinion lifting system of the guide unit for a fast and safe setup
  • Saw blade tensioning indicator that guarantees immediate and continuous control of the value
  • Cast-iron work table with lapped surface for maximum smoothness of the piece
  • Full disc cast iron wheels to keep the blade speed constant during machining
  • Top and bottom blade guide with ball bearings to minimize lateral movements of the blade and therefore increase the precision of the cut
  • Cleaning brush on bottom wheel to reduce the wheel wear

Solidity and sturdiness

Very thick, cast iron wheels, as well as the worktable, running on sealed for life ball bearings.

 

Safety first

Total safety machining with telescopic protections with rackwork to the blade.

 

Perfect results

A perfect cut result is assured by the top and bottom high precision blade guides. Practical machines suitable also to perform straight and tilted cuts on wood, plastic and aluminum.
