Switch the machine off then. Then switch the
machine on again and continue sawing at a reduced
feed speed.
Switching off:Release switch trigger 10 (Fig. 2)
to switch off the machine.
5.3 Light
The power tool is equipped with a light module 36
(Fig. 3).
The light module is supplied with power for a certain
period of time as soon as the machine is switched on,
and is then ready for operation.
When the machine is ready for operation, the light
module automatically switches the light on when the
machine is moved or switches it off when the
machine is standing still for longer periods.
5.4 Cutting depth adjustment
The cutting depth is continuously variable between 0
and 66 mm (2.60 in.).
Proceed as follows to adjust it:
Unfasten the clamping lever 12 (Fig. 1).
Set the cutting depth with the plunge lever 13
(Fig. 1).
The set depth can be read off the scale 14 (Fig.
1). The bevelled edge of the plunge lever serves
as indicator.
Retighten the clamping lever 12 (Fig. 1).
Always set the cutting depth
approx. 2 to 5 mm (5/64 to 13/64
in.) larger than the material
thickness to be cut.
5.5 Setting for bevel cuts
For bevel cuts, the saw unit can be set to any angle
between 0°and 45°.
In order to incline it, bring the machine into
home position and support it such that it is
possible to tilt the saw unit.
Release the lever 15 (Fig. 2).
Adjust the angle according to the scale on the
segment for tilting.
Retighten the lever 15 (Fig. 2) afterwards.
5.6 Plunge cuts
Danger
Risk of backlash during plunge
cuts! Prior to plunging, place the
machine with the rear edge of its
base plate against a limit stop
fastened on the workpiece. Keep a
firm hold on the machine handle
during plunging and push the saw
lightly forward!
Unfasten the clamping lever 12 (Fig. 1) and put
the machine in the topmost position with plunge
lever 13 (Fig. 1).
Completely open the retractable saw guard with
the pre-feed lever 16 (Fig. 1), so that the
machine can be placed onto the workpiece to be
processed. The saw blade is now freely
suspended above the material and can be
aligned with the marking.
Switch on the machine and press the plunge
lever 13 (Fig. 1) downwards. This causes the
saw blade to plunge vertically into the
workpiece. While doing so, the plunge depth
can be read off the scale 14 (Fig. 1). The riving
knife/splitter swings up and away when the
blade enters the workpiece. As soon as the slit
behind the saw blade is cleared during the
forward motion of the machine, the riving knife
reverts to its normal position.
In case of repetitive plunge cuts of
the same depth, the plunging depth
can be preset.
Proceed as follows:
Set the machine to the desired cutting depth.
Open the clamping screw 17 (Fig. 2) and set the
stop bar 18 (Fig. 2) downwards up to the limit
stop.
Retighten the clamping screw. After completion
of the plunge work, set the stop bar into the top
position.
5.7 Sawing according to tracings
The retractable marking indicator 19 (Fig. 3) is
automatically adjusted for bevel cuts as well. The
tracing edge corresponds to the saw blade's inside.
