B) Plunge cuts
In order to avoid kickbacks, the
following in structions absolutely must be ob­
served when plunge cutting:
– The machine must always be placed with
the rear edge of the saw table against a
fixed stop.
– When working with a guide rail, the ma­
chine must be positioned against the kick­
back stop [9-2], accessories), which is
clamped on the guide rail.
– The machine must always be held securely
with both hands and only plunged slowly.
Procedure
► Place the machine onto the workpiece and
position it against a stop (kickback stop).
► Switch the machine on.
► Slowly press it down onto the set cutting
depth and push it forward in the cutting di­
rection.
The markings [10-1] display the absolute front
and the absolute rear cutting points of the saw
blade (dia. 6-1/4" (160 mm) at maximum cutting
depth and using the guide rail.
C) Aluminium processing
When processing aluminium,
the following measures must be taken for safe­
ty reasons:
– Install an upstream residual-current circuit
breaker (FIG, PRCD).
– Connect the machine to a suitable dust ex­
tractor.
– Regularly remove dust deposits from the
motor housing.
– Use a aluminium saw blade.

– Close the viewing window/chipguard.

Wear protective goggles.
– When sawing panels, they must be lubri­
cated with paraffin but thin-walled profiles
(up to 1/8" (3 mm)) can be sawed without
lubrication.
D) Plaster and cement-bonded fibre boards
Due to the high build-up of dust, use of a cover
ABSA-TS55 (accessory) mounted to the side of
the protective cover is recommended.

10 Service and maintenance

Any maintenance or repair work that re­
quires opening of the motor or gear housing
should only be carried out by an authorised
Customer Service Centre (name supplied by
your dealer)!
► Maintenance or repair work carried out by
an unauthorised person can lead to the
wrong connection of the power cord or oth­
er components, which in turn can lead to
accidents with serious consequences.
To prevent accidents, always remove the
plug from the power supply socket before
carrying out any changes or maintenance
work on the tool!
► Do not use compressed air to clean the
electrical tool! Do not try to clean parts in­
side the tool in this way, as you could let
foreign objects in through the openings of
the tool housing.
Certain cleaning agents and solvents are
harmful to plastic parts.
► Some of these include, but are not limited
to: Gasoline, Acetone, Methyl Ethyl Ketone
(MEK), Carbonyl Chloride, cleaning solu­
tions containing Chlorine, Ammonia, and
household cleaners containing Ammonia.
