Tilt the locking lever 20 (Fig. 2) clockwise up to
the limit stop. The scoring depth is now set to
approx. 3 mm (1/8 in.).

Place the machine with the guide groove onto
the guide rail.

5.9 Working with the diamond saw blade in fibre
cement board (special accessories)
Proceed as follows:

Use a suitable saw blade (see Chapter 4.5).

Exchange the saw blade (see Chapter 4.6).
The diamond saw blade was
developed for fibre cement board.
The diamond-fitted teeth are more
delicate than the teeth of the HM
saw blade. This is why you are
working with a guide rail.

5.10 Working with guide rails


To achieve more accurate guidance, set the
guide clearance with the two setting wheels 21
(Fig. 4).
The plunge cut saw can be used to work with the
guide rails that are available as special accessories.
In addition, it is possible to use some rails that are
freely available on the market.

To do so, unscrew the screws and remove the
insert 24 (Fig. 2).
