Rail cutting
General
NOTICE! The rail fixture must not be mounted on the
machine during transport or when handling the
equipment.
The rail fixture is a precision tool that can be damaged if
not handled with care which results in less precise cuts.
Assembling the rail fixture
• Mount the rail fixture onto the rail. Screw the lock
handle tight.
• Mount the power cutter with its right side to the fixture.
The mounting on the power cutter is fitted closest to
the spindle on the cutting blade when assembling
from this side. Assembly should therefore be carried
out primarily from this direction.
NOTICE! The rail fixture must be first fitted to the rail
before the power cutter is fitted to the rail fixture. This is
done to guarantee that the fixture is attached at right
angles to the rail.
OPERATING
Cutting guide
The cutting guide is used to facilitate guiding the blade to
where the cut is to be made. The first time you use the
power cutter, you must cut the guide.
• Fold out the cutting guide.
• Fix the cutting guide parallel to the rail in an
appropriate manner.
• Carefully cut off the guide.
Work procedure
• Fold out the cutting guide.
• Align the saw cut and fold in the guide.
• Begin the cutting process by swinging the machine
back and forth horizontally. This way the cutting
blade's contact surface to the rail is minimised, which
reduces the risk of the blade glazing.
• When you have cut through the head (A), you continue
cutting the rib (B) and foot (C).

If the cut cannot be completed from one side, the power
cutter must be turned around.
• Shut off the machine.
• Dismantle the power cutter from the fixture.
