Danger of injury when touching the saw blade.
Selecting a Saw Blade
An overview of recommended saw blades can be found at the

and turn approx. 3–4 turns in anticlockwise direction.
 Insert the saw blade 6 lateral to the cutting direction into
the stroke rod 10.
 Turn the saw blade 6 so that the toothing faces toward the
cutting direction. Pull the saw blade 6 a little downward
until it engages.
 Insert the screwdriver 9 from above into the stroke rod 10
and turn in clockwise direction until the saw blade 6 is
locked.
Push the assembly plate with the guide roller 5 forwards until
it faces against the back of the saw blade and tighten the
screws 12 again.
 Check the tight seating of the saw blade. A loose saw
blade can fall out and lead to injuries.

Splinter Guard (see figure B)
The splinter guard 11 (accessory) can prevent fraying of the
surface while sawing wood. The splinter guard can only be
used for certain saw blade types and only for cutting angles of
0°. When sawing with the splinter guard, the base plate 4
must not be moved back for cuts that are close to the edge.
Press the splinter guard 11 from the bottom into the base
plate 4.

Dust/Chip Extraction

 Dust from materials such as lead-containing coatings,
some wood types, minerals and metal can be harmful to
one's health. Touching or breathing-in the dust can cause
allergic reactions and/or lead to respiratory infections of
the user or bystanders.
Certain dust, such as oak or beech dust, is considered car-
cinogenic, especially in connection with wood-treatment
additives (chromate, wood preservative). Materials con-
taining asbestos may only be worked by specialists.
– Provide for good ventilation of the working place.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respirator.
Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the
materials to be worked.
 Prevent dust accumulation at the workplace. Dust can
easily ignite.
