Hints for optimum use
As some splintering along the line of cut on the top side
N
of the workpiece cannot be avoided, cut on the side
where splintering is acceptable.
Where splintering is to be minimised, e.g. when cutting
N
laminates, clamp a piece of plywood onto the top of the
workpiece.
Using the sight guide (fig. G)
The tool is equipped with a sight guide for straight cutting (27)
and for 45° mitre cutting (28).
Adjust the sight guide as described below.
N
Align the left edge of the guides (27) or (28) with the
N
cutting line (29).
Keep the sight guide aligned with the cutting line while
N
sawing.
Work with the shoe pressed against the workpiece.
N
Adjusting the sight guide
Make a test cut halfway through a piece of scrap wood.
N
Withdraw the saw so the cutting line (29) becomes visible.
N
While keeping the saw in this position, loosen the sight
N
guide on the saw shoe as shown.
Align the 0° mark (27) on the sight guide with the cutting
N
line (29). When adjusting for 45° mitre cuts, align the 45°
mark (28) on the sight guide with the cutting line.
Secure the sight guide using the screw (30).
N
How to use the laser (fig. H)
The laser projects the line of cut on the workpiece surface.
To switch the laser on, press the button (6).
N
To switch the laser off, press the button (6) again.
N
Viewing from directly above the saw, the line of cut can be
easily followed. Should this view be restricted for any reason,
the laser can be used as an alternate cutting guide.
Use a pencil to mark the cutting line.
N
Position the saw over the line.
N
Switch on the laser.
N
Dust extraction
An adaptor is required to connect a vacuum cleaner or dust
extractor to the tool.
Insert the dust extraction adaptor into the saw dust outlet
N
(12).
Connect the vacuum cleaner hose to the adaptor.
N
