Guide system (fi g. 1, 7)
The guide rails, which are available in different
lengths, allow for precise, clean cuts and
simultaneously protect the workpiece surface

angled cuts, mitre cuts and fitting work can be
completed with the guide rail system.
Securing the workpiece with clamps ensures a
secure hold and safe working.

adjust the clearance.
2. Adjust the knob until saw locks on rail.
