workpieces.
– Unscrew the rotary knob (7.1) that clamps
the support.
– Insert the slot nut (7.3) into the top slot
(7.2) on the stop profi le or the adjustable
spacer.
– Slide the support to the required positi-
on.

distance between the saw blade and the
workpiece so that the workpiece is cut to
the required length.
– Unscrew the rotary knob (1.11) on the
adjustable spacer.
– Move the stop profi le (1.1) and the spacer
(1.6) approx. 8 cm apart.
– Unscrew the rotary knob (8.1) that clamps

3 Adjustments
3.1 Tape measure
The tape measure starts at 30 cm so that
it does not come into contact with the saw
blade. Therefore, make sure that the dis-
tance between the tape measure and the
saw blade is correct:
– Set both the horizontal and vertical mitre
angles on the KS 120 to 0°.
– Place a workpiece (9.4) with a length of
450 mm on the KS 120 lengthways against
the saw blade (9.3).
– Slide the stop fl ag (9.1) up to the workpi-
ece. Clamp the stop fl ag in this position.
– Unscrew the rotary knob for the measuring
tape clamp (9.5).
– Move the tape measure until the measu-
rement at the edge (9.2) of the stop fl ag
indicates 450 mm.
– Use the tape measure clamp (9.5) to se-
cure the tape measure in this position. The
tape measure now indicates the exact dis-
tance to the saw blade. The measurement
at the edge (9.2) is the distance between
the stop fl ag and the saw blade.
3.2 Length adjustment
Unscrew the rotary knob (1.12) to extend
and retract the end piece (1.7). The maxi-
mum extension length is 2300 mm.
Unscrew the rotary knob (1.11) to move
the spacer.
4 Working
To trim a workpiece to a certain length, pro-
ceed as follows:
– Adjust the stop fl ag to the required dimen-
sion.
– Place the workpiece against the stop
fl ag.
– Cut through the workpiece with the
KS 120.
