1Introduction
This operating manual applies exclusively to the PANHANS
sliding table saw type 690|100. The purpose of this document
is to acquaint the user with the machine and enable him to
use it to the full extent of its intended capabilities. Additional-
ly it contains important information to operate the machine
safely, properly and economically. Observance of the manual
helps to avoid hazards, reduce repair costs and downtimes
and increase the reliability and service life of the machine.
Furthermore, this operating manual serves to supplement
instructions based on national regulations for accident pre-
vention and environmental protection.
Figure 1: Saw blade
Apart from the operating manual and the legally binding accident prevention provisions applicable in the coun-
try and place of use, the recognized technical regulations for safe and proper work must also be observed.
This operating manual must always be available at the place of use of the machine. It must be
read and followed by every person who is assigned to work on the machine, e.g.
•during operation, including set-up, troubleshooting in the work process, removal of produc-
tion waste and maintenance,
•during maintenance (servicing, inspection, repair)
•and/or during transport.)

3General
This sliding table saw was produced by HOKUBEMA Maschinenbau GmbH according to the current state of the
art and placed on the market as a complete machine. All legal and normative regulations were observed.
All measuring scales are manufactured in accordance with the calibration regulations to accuracy class 2.
3.1 Intended Use
The PANHANS - 690|100 sliding table saw is designed for cutting materials for which the respective saw blade
used is suitable (e.g. wood, pressboard, veneer, plastic or aluminium). This machine is not suitable for cutting
metal, plastic or scrap wood (which could contain nails, screws and other metal parts). The machine may only
be operated on a firm, level surface with a minimum load-bearing capacity of 1,000 kg/m².
Improper use can lead to danger to persons and to a defect or damage to the machine.
3.2 Target Group and Previous Experience
This operating manual is intended for the operating and maintenance personnel of the machine. The operating
personnel is to be determined by the operator and must further meet the following requirements:
•Basic technical knowledge (e.g. apprenticeship as carpenter, machine fitter, etc. and/or practice in operat-
ing sliding table saws resp. woodworking machines)
•Reading and understanding these operating and maintenance instructions
In order to acquire the knowledge required to operate this machine, the operator must ensure the following
measures:
•Product training for every operator (also possible external personnel)
•Regular safety instruction
3.3 Requirements for the Operators
•The sliding table saw may only be operated by trained personnel who have also read this manual.
•Inspection, maintenance, cleaning and repair may only be performed by technical specialists
with product-specific training and mechanical and/or electrical training.
•Specialists with product-specific training are to be commissioned and held responsible for
planning and checking the work.
•The national protective regulations for employees must be observed.
•The operator is responsible for the safe use of the machine.
•The legal minimum age must be observed.
