2. Clean the mounting flange and the clamping

flange.

3. Fit the mounting flange.

4. Open the pivoting guard.

5. CAUTION Only use blades which are suitable

for this saw. Observe the direction-of-rotation

arrow on the saw blade.

Fit the new saw blade.

6. Fit the outer clamping flange.

7. Press the drive spindle lockbutton.

8. Fasten the clamping flange with the clamping

screw by turning it anti-clockwise.

7.2 Adjusting the cutting depth 4

The cutting depth can be infinitely adjusted between

0 and 57 mm.

1. Pull the battery out of the power tool.

2. Place the power tool on a supporting surface.

3. Release the cutting depth adjustment clamping

lever.

4. Lift the power tool in a scissor movement and set

the desired cutting depth by closing the clamping

lever.

7.3 Sawing along a line

The position of the saw blade is indicated by the

mark on the base plate. This allows accurate cuts to

be made. The edge of the line indicator corresponds

to the inside of the saw blade. The viewing window

provides a better view of the cutting line and thus

helps ensure a more accurate cut.

1. Secure the workpiece to prevent movement.

2. Position the workpiece so that the saw blade is

free to rotate beneath it.

3. Check to ensure that the on / off switch on the

power tool is in the “off” position.

4. Fit the battery into the power tool.

5. Position the forward section of the saw’s base

plate on the workpiece but do not bring the blade

into contact with the workpiece.

6. If the switch-on interlock has been pressed,

switch the power tool on by pressing the on/off

button.

7. Guide the saw along the cutting line on the

workpiece at a suitable speed.

7.4 Sawing using the rip fence (accessory)

Use of the single arm rip fence allows precise cuts to

be made along the edge of the workpiece, or strips of

even width to be cut.

The rip fence can be fitted on either side of the base

plate.

7.5 Fitting / adjusting the parallel guide (rip

fence) 5

1. Remove the battery from the power tool.

2. Press the clamp together.

3. Push the parallel guide (rip fence) into the base

plate as far as you wish.

4. Release the clamp when the parallel guide is in

the desired position.

7.6 Emptying the chip collector 6

CAUTION

Wear protective gloves when emptying the chip

collector. The metal chips are sharp-edged and may

be hot.

CAUTION

Empty the chip collector and clean the power tool

before putting it away in the toolbox or other con-

tainer for storage or transport. Metal chips may

otherwise fall out of the collector and find their way

into the power tool, battery or charger, presenting a

risk of damage or malfunction.

When the power tool is in use you can check with

the aid of the viewing window whether the collector

is full.

1. Remove the battery from the tool.

2. Pull the chip collector away from the tool to the

rear.

3. Swing the two halves of the chip collector apart

and empty out its contents.

4. Push the chip collector onto the guard until in

engages in position.

7.7 Procedure if the chip / dust channel is

blocked

1. Remove the battery from the tool.

2. Remove the chip collector.

3. Clean the chip / dust channel.
