Cut Control for Bevel Cuts
24 11 10 6
For cutting-line control of bevel cuts, the "Cut
Control" viewing window 11 has a mark 24 for
0° right-angle cuts and a mark 25 each for the
left- or rightward sloping 45° bevel cut accord-
ing to scale 20.
The cutting mark for bevel cuts between 0° and
45° results proportionally. It can additionally be
drawn on the "Cut Control" viewing window 11
with a non-permanent marker, and easily be re-
moved again.
For accurate working, it is best to carry out a
test cut.
Offsetting the Base Plate (see figure G)
For sawing close to edges, the base plate 6 can
be offset to the rear.
Loosen the screw 19 and slide the base plate 6
toward the vacuum connection 4 to the stop.
Tighten the screw 19 again.
Sawing with the base plate 6 offset is possible
only at a 0° bevel angle. Additionally, "Cut Con-
trol" may not be used together with the base 10,
the parallel guide with circle cutter 21 (acces-
sory), as well as the splinter guard 16.

Starting Operation of the Power Tool
Switching On and Off
To start the machine, press the On/Off switch 2.
To lock the On/Off switch 2, keep it depressed
and push the lock-on button 1 to the right or left.
To switch off the machine, release the On/Off
switch 2. When the On/Off switch 2 is locked,
press it first and then release it.
Controling the Stroke Rate
Increasing or reducing the pressure on the
On/Off switch 2 enables stepless stroke-rate
control of the switched-on machine.
When the On/Off switch 2 is locked, it is not
possible to reduce the stroke rate.
The required stroke rate is dependent on the
material and the working conditions and can be
determined by a practical trial.
Reducing the stroke rate is recommended when
the saw blade engages in the material as well as
when sawing plastic and aluminium.
After longer periods of work at low stroke rate,
the machine can heat up considerably. Remove
the saw blade from the machine and allow the
machine to cool down by running it for approx.
3 minutes at maximum stroke rate.
Switching on the sawdust blow-
er device: For cuts in materials
with high removal rate, such as
in wood, plastic, etc., push the
switch 8 toward the vacuum
connection.
Switching off the sawdust blow-
er device: For cuts in metal and
when a dust extraction system is
connected, push the switch 8 to-
ward the saw blade.
Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage
of the power source must agree with the
voltage specified on the nameplate of the
machine. Power tools marked with 230 V
can also be operated with 220 V.
