Sawing cut-outs (plunge cuts)
In order to avoid kickbacks, the following
instructions must always be followed
when plunge cutting:
Always position the machine with the rear
edge of the saw table against a fixed stop.
When working with the guide rail, position
the machine at the kickback stop [7-1],
which is clamped to the guide rail (see
Fig. [7]; when not in use, the kickback stop
can be stored by the guide plate [7-2] of the
machine).
Always hold the machine securely using
both hands and plunge slowly.
Procedure
Position the machine on the workpiece and
place it against a stop (kickback stop), switch on
the machine, slowly push it down to the set cut­
ting depth and push it in the cutting direction.
The marks [6-2] indicate the absolute front and
rear cutting points of the saw blade (210 mm di­
ameter) when using the saw at maximum cut­
ting depth with the guide rail.

Observe the following instructions:
► Damaged safety devices and parts, such as
a faulty lever for changing tools [1-8], must
be properly repaired or replaced in a recog­
nised specialist workshop, unless otherwise
indicated in the operating manual.
► Check the condition and fault-free function­
ing of the recuperating springs, which push
the entire drive mechanism bearing into the
upper protected end positions.
► To ensure constant air circulation, always
keep the cooling air openings in the housing
clean and free of blockages.
► Use an extractor on all openings in order to
remove wood chips and splinters from the
power tool. Never open the protective
lid [4-7].
► When working with plaster- and cement-
bonded fibreboards, clean the tool particu­
larly thoroughly. Clean the vents of the
power tool and on/off switch using dry, oil-
free compressed air. Otherwise, gypsum
dust deposits may build up inside the power
tool's housing and on the on/off switch and
harden when exposed to humidity. This may
impair the switching mechanism

Parallel stop, extension table
A parallel stop can be used for sections up to
180 mm wide. The parallel stop can also be
used as an extension table.

surface of the workpiece from damage.
In conjunction with the extensive range of ac­
cessories, exact angled cuts, mitre cuts and fit­
ting work can be completed with the guide sys­
tem. The option of attaching the guide rail se­
curely using clamps [6-4] ensures safer work­
ing conditions.

and the guide rail using the two adjustable
jaws [1-3].
Bed in the splinter guard [1-4] before using
the guide rail for the first time:
► Set the machine speed to 6.
