Cut Control for Bevel Cuts (PST 900 PEL/PST 9500 PEL)
29 12 13 7
For cutting-line control of bevel cuts, the "Cut Control" view-
ing window 12 has a mark 29 for 0° right-angle cuts and a
mark 30 each for the left- or rightward sloping 45° bevel cut
according to scale 25.
The cutting mark for bevel cuts between 0° and 45° results
proportionally. It can additionally be drawn on the "Cut Con-
trol" viewing window 12 with a non-permanent marker, and
easily be removed again.
For accurate working, it is best to carry out a test cut.

proportionally. It can additionally be drawn on the "Cut Con-
trol" viewing window 12 with a non-permanent marker, and
easily be removed again.
For accurate working, it is best to carry out a test cut.

Offsetting the Base Plate

For sawing close to edges, the base plate 7 can be offset to
the rear.
PST 900 PEL/PST 9500 PEL (see figure G):
– Pull the saw blade storage 21 out of the base plate 7.
– Loosen the screw 24 and slide the base plate 7 toward the
vacuum connection 5 to the stop.
– Tighten the screw 24 again.
PST 1000 PEL (see figure H):
– Release the base plate clamping lever 6 and push the base
plate 7 to the stop in the direction of the vacuum connec-
tion 5.
– Close the base plate clamping lever 6 to lock the base plate
in the adjusted position.
Sawing with the base plate 7 offset is possible only at a 0°
bevel angle. Additionally, "Cut Control" may not be used to-
gether with the base 13, the parallel guide with circle cutter
26 (accessory), as well as the splinter guard 22.

Sawdust Blower Device

With the air jet of the sawdust blower device 9, the cutting line
can be kept free of dust and chips.

Starting Operation

 Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage of the pow-
er source must agree with the voltage specified on the
nameplate of the machine. Power tools marked with
230 V can also be operated with 220 V.
Switching on the LED Work Area Illumination
The worklight 14 improves the visual conditions in the direct
working range. Particularly good cutting results can be
31 11 25
achieved by using the worklight together with "Cut Control".
The worklight 14 is switched on by lightly pressing the On/Off
switch 3. Pressing the On/Off switch further starts the ma-
chine, while the worklight continues to be lit.
 Do not look directly into the work area illumination –
your sight can be temporarily degraded!
Switching on the sawdust blower device:
For cuts in materials with high removal
rate, such as in wood, plastic, etc., push
the switch 9 toward the vacuum connec-
tion.
Switching off the sawdust blower device:
For cuts in metal and when a dust extrac-
tion system is connected, push the switch
9 toward the saw blade.
