Frequently Asked Questions
What cutting height does the BKS 500 / 400 V offer?
See "Max. cutting height" in the technical table: typically 70-130 mm at 90°.
The height decreases with blade tilt. For angled cuts (45°), check the usable height at that particular angle in the technical sheet.
Supported blade diameter?
See "Blade diameter" in the technical table: typically 250-400 mm.
Larger diameter blades offer higher cutting height but require a motor with adequate power. Check the standard of the blade arbor hole.
Does it have precision guides and fences?
Professional models are equipped with a rip fence, miter fence, and sliding carriage on panel saw models.
Panel saws offer a sliding carriage for precise squaring. Standard table saws require accessory guides for series production.
Does it have integrated dust extraction?
Yes, a dust extractor connection with a standard diameter (typically Ø100 or Ø120 mm).
Dust extraction is essential in woodworking to reduce breathable dust and maintain visibility in the cutting area.
What power supply does it require?
See "Voltage" in the table: 230 V single-phase for compact machines, 400 V three-phase for professional ones.
Models with motors over 2 kW typically require 400 V three-phase. Check availability in the workshop before purchasing.
