1Functional Description
With the double-sided mitre fence DSG-D, mitre cuts can be made quickly and precisely. The wooden support
block included in the scope of delivery enables tear-free cuts and further serves as an additional support during
cutting, especially for narrow and short workpieces.
DSG-D - Features
•Ideal for fast and stepless production of mitre cuts on narrow and short workpieces
at any angle from 0°... 90°
•Automatic length compensation for preferred angles 5/10/15/22.5/30/45/60/67.5°
•An imprinted scale simplifies the production of incorrect mitres
•Easy handling and quick mounting on the trolley of the saw
•Angle & length measurement adjustable via digital display
•The leg length available for cutting is maximum 1375 mm
•Including wooden support block and wall bracket
•Bounce-free mounted flip stops
•Including adapter

2Working with the DSG-D
Placing the fence on the Panhans edging table
CAUTION: Secure the machine against unintentional switch-on!
Figure 2: Placing the DSG-D on the edging table
Figure 3: Clamping the DSG-D on the edging table
1. Move eccentric lever to "handle up" position.
2. Place the fence on the edging table.
3. Check whether the press-on screws are in
contact with the edging table and re-adjust
if necessary.
1. Loosen the two M8 screws. This ensures that the
fence rests correctly on the edging table.
2. Clamp the fence by tightening the eccentric
lever.
3. Retighten the two M8 screws.

Adjusng the fence

Precise adjustment of the DSG-D fence is of enormous importance, as it affects the accuracy of
all cuts made with it. To achieve optimum cutting results, always use sufficiently precise measur-
ing equipment (e.g. vernier calliper) for adjustment.
1. Swivel the fence to approxi-
mately 45° and loosen the
four M8 clamping screws
(Figure 1).
2. Now swivel the fence to-
wards position 0 (90°)
until the stop screws are in
contact (Figure 2).
3. The line in the magnifying
glass for reading the swivel
angle is now congruent with
the 0 resp. 90° line on the
angle scale.
4. Clamp the turntable at this
position.
5. Insert the support block into
the fence profile, which is
approximately parallel to the
saw blade.
CAUTION: Make sure
that the support
block is in contact
with the profile!
Figure 1: Adjusting the DSG-D (1)
Figure 2: Adjusting the DSG-D (2)
6. Carefully push the fence with the material up to the saw blade (Figure 3).
7. At this position, retighten the M8 clamping screws –
first on one side.
Then swivel the fence so that the two clamping
screws on the other side can be easily reached and
tighten them as well.
CAUTION: To prevent the saw blade
from being pushed out of position,
place an additional material strip to
the right of the saw blade and fix it in
place with the rip fence!
Figure 3: Adjusting the DSG-D (3)
8. Make a test cut in the 0° resp. 90° position and check whether the position of the scale corresponds to the
value measured on the test piece.

9. The length measurement must correspond to position "0" (90°) on the angle scale (Figure 4).
10. If the length measurement does not correspond to the "0" position, leave the DSG-D fence in the clamped
state, loosen the screws of the scale, and move it until the 0 of the upper scale corresponds exactly to the
measured value (Figure 4). Then re-tighten the screws.
Example: If a piece of material is
cut with the setting 110 mm, but
it only has 109 mm when meas-
ured, the scale display must be
shifted so that the 0 corresponds
to the value 10.9 (109 mm) on
the lower scale (see Figure 4).
11.Then slide the flap rail into the
other profile and check the
length here as well.
Figure 4: Adjusting the DSG-D (4)
Because the fence scale has different markings for reading the length, it is possible to set the exact length
to the cutting line at certain angles.
Example: If, for example, the fence
is set to an angle of 22.5° and the
length dimension is set so that the
marking line on the scale below
the 22.5 is congruent with any
measure (for example 350 mm)
on the scale of the profile, this
value is cut measured in the tip
(see Figure 5).
Figure 5: DSG-D adjustment example

The measuring scale in the profile has two measurement rows:
1. Upper scale → First stop flap
2. Lower scale → Second stop flap (distance = 640 mm)
The maximum cutting length at
position "0" resp. 90° is 1375 mm.
If this dimension is to be cut at
(for example) 45°, the clamping
screw for the flap rail must be
offset as shown in Figure 6.

Produce wrong mitres
To produce incorrect mitres, the DSG-D has a patented
printed scale that makes it easy to set the correct angle for
the wider and narrower workpiece at the same time.
The procedure is very simple.
Example:
1. Measure the width of wider workpiece
(e.g. 180 mm)
2. Measure the width of narrower workpiece
(e.g. 100 mm)
3. Calculate factor
  
4. Turn the turntable as shown in Figure 7 with
the large magnifying glass (L) to a factor of 1.8
and clamp it tight.
This automatically results in the correct angle to the saw
blade for the narrower workpiece (S) on the left side of
the DSG-D and for the wider workpiece (B) on the right
(refer Figure 8).
The corresponding sides for the narrow and wide workpiece
are also shown graphically on the turntable plate.
Figure 7: Set factor by scale
Figure 8: Angles for wrong mitres
Table for length compensaon on the double-sided mitre fence
Using the table (refer to section 2.5) the length compensation dimension can be set in addition to the angles
printed on the scale of the mitre fence (refer to Figure 9).
Example: If a tip dimension of 350
mm is to be set for an angle of 17.5°,
the length compensation results in
the value of 29.0 mm according to
the table on the next page. This value
must now be added to the value 350
mm (35 on the length scale). Thus
the 0 on the scale of the stop rail
must now be set congruent with 37.9
(379 mm) on the length scale.
Values with a minus (marked red in
the table) are to be subtracted from
the tip dimension.

Digital Angle Display
2.6.1 Calibrate indicator to the fence
Pressing the key will set the display to the value 0.00. This can be done
at any angle setting of the fence.
To return the display to its original position (0.00 at 0° resp. 90°), swing
the fence against the fence screws (refer to Figure 2) and then press
key.
2.6.2 Battery change
The power supply for the position indicator is provided by two 1.5 Volt
batteries type Micro "AAA", which are accessible by loosening the two
screws of the battery case on the rear of the unit. When the battery
symbol (see Figure 10) appears in the display, the battery should be
replaced as soon as possible. Please ensure that the polarity is correct
(see Figure 11).
Figure 10: Digital angle display
Figure 11: Battery case (rear)

Since the current angular position is not saved when the battery is changed, the indicator
must be recalibrated to the fence afterwards (as described in section  2.6.1).
Fire, explosion and burn hazard! Never recharge batteries or expose them to temperatures
above 85° C. Please dispose of the used batteries properly.
2.6.3 Further documentation
Further documentation and manuals for the digital display can be found on the manufacturer's website:

3Wall Bracket
The wall bracket for the DSG-D offers
a practical way to store the fence
within easy reach when not in use.
It is already included in the scope of
delivery.
The two clamping pins shown in
Figure 12 are located on the un-
derside of the fence. They can be
used for quick and tool-free attach-
ment of the device to the wall
bracket.
