sharp saw blade is an essential requirement for a perfect
cut.
7.1.1 Removing the saw blade 2
1.
Pull the battery out of the power tool.
2.
Press the drive spindle lockbutton and hold it in this
position.
3.
Turn the saw blade clamping screw with the hex.
socket wrench until the locking pin engages fully.
4.
Release the clamping screw by turning the wrench
further clockwise.
5.
Remove the clamping screw from the outer clamping
flange.
6.
Open the pivoting guard by swinging it to the side
and then remove the saw blade.
7.1.2 Fitting the saw blade 3
1.
Pull the battery out of the power tool.
2.
Clean the mounting flange and the clamping flange.
3.
Fit the mounting flange.
4.
Open the pivoting guard.
5.
CAUTION Only use blades which are suitable for
this saw. Observe the direction-of-rotation arrow
on the saw blade.
Fit the new saw blade.
6.
Fit the outer clamping flange.
7.
Press the drive spindle lockbutton.
8.
Fasten the clamping flange with the clamping screw
by turning it anti-clockwise.
9.
Before using the power tool, check that the saw
blade is securely attached.
7.2 Adjusting the cutting depth 4
NOTE
The cutting depth set should always be approx. 5 to 10
mm greater than the thickness of the material to be cut.
The cutting depth can be infinitely adjusted between 0
and 57 mm.
1.
Pull the battery out of the power tool.
2.
Place the power tool on a supporting surface.
3.
Release the cutting depth adjustment clamping
lever.
The depth setting can be read from the raised indic-
ator mark at the rear of the blade guard.
4.
Lift the power tool in a scissor movement and set
the desired cutting depth by closing the clamping
lever.
7.3 Setting the cutting angle 5
The saw can be set to any angle between 0 and 50º for
bevel cuts.
1.
Pull the battery out of the power tool.
2.
Release the cutting angle adjustment clamping
lever.
3.
Pivot the power tool to the desired position.
4.
Tighten the cutting angle adjustment clamping lever.
7.4 Sawing along a line
There is a cutting line indicator for straight cuts or bevel
cuts (0° and 45°) at the front section of the base plate of
the power tool. This permits precise cuts to be made at
the selected cutting angle. The edge of the line indicator
corresponds to the inside of the saw blade. The viewing
window provides a better view of the cutting line and thus
ensures a better cut. Additional cutting line indicators are
located at the front opening for the saw blade and at the
end of the base plate.
1.
Secure the workpiece so that it can not move.
2.
Position the workpiece so that the saw blade is free
to move under the workpiece.
3.
Check to ensure that the on / off switch on the
power tool is in the "off" position.
4.
Fit the battery into the power tool.
5.
Place the power tool with the base plate on the
workpiece in such a way that the blade still has no
contact with the workpiece.
6.
If the switch-on interlock has been pressed, switch
the power tool on by pressing the on/off button.
7.
Guide the power tool along the cutting line on the
workpiece at a suitable speed.
7.5 Sawing using the rip fence (accessory)
Use of the single arm rip fence allows precise cuts to be
made along the edge of the workpiece, or strips of even
width to be cut.
The rip fence can be fitted on either side of the base
plate.
7.6 Fitting / adjusting the rip fence 6
1.
Pull the battery out of the power tool.
2.
Screw the clamping screw into the baseplate, leav-
ing enough space to slide the rip fence guide
through.
3.
Slide the rip fence guide under the clamping screw.
4.
Set the desired cutting width.
5.
Tighten the clamping screw.
7.7 Using the saw on the guide rail 7
7.7.1 Fitting the guide rail adapter 8
NOTE
The saw can be equipped with a guide rail adapter which
is available as an accessory.
1.
Remove the rip fence, if one is fitted.
2.
Fit the base plate into the side retaining channels of
the guide rail adapter.
3.
Fully insert the base plate into the guide rail adapter.
4.
Lock the guide rail adapter by pressing in the two
sliders as far as they will go.
7.7.2 Longitudinal cuts at 0 °
Place the saw on the guide rail so that the rib fits into the
groove in the adapter.
