I'm probably buying a KF700 professional with a 2050mm slider (not the S model). My shop is quite small so I have to take every inch into consideration.
At last I have managed to find a good spot for the saw (I've built a scale model which I can move around in the shop to try positions). The only good spot I have found is space limited backwards, i.e. the 2050 slider cannot move all the way back. If I move the saw forward 10 inches I can slide all the way back, but then I'll have some side space issues so I won't be able to cross cut a full sheet in this position.
Q1: I know that the slider should be slid back for blade change. Does anyone know if blade change is possible when the slider is all the way forward instead?
Q2: If forward position blade change is not possible I need to juggle with inches. Does anyone know the minimum distance the slider (including handle) will protrude backwards in order to change blade? I won't have a scoring blade, so I'm hoping that I don't have to slide all the way back.
Thanks!
