Removal of the Saw Blade (see figure A)
– To avoid damage, provide for sufficient clearance between
power tool and workpiece.
– Hold the power tool by the handle 11.
– Press release lever 4 for base plate 3 down. The base plate
3 opens.
– Press the spindle lock button 12 and keep it pressed.
The spindle lock button 12 may be actuated only when
the saw spindle is at a standstill. Otherwise, the power
tool can be damaged.

direction of the teeth (arrow direction on the saw blade)
and the direction-of-rotation arrow on the saw must corre-
spond.
– Press the spindle lock button 12 and keep it pressed.
– Using hex key 16, screw in the clamping bolt with clamping

(for Cutting Applications, e.g. Cutting Tiles)
Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains
plug.
When mounting and replacing diamond cutting discs, it
is recommended to wear protective gloves.
Diamond cutting discs become very hot during opera-
tion; do not touch them until they have cooled down.
Use only diamond-tipped cutting discs.
Do not used segmented cutting discs and do not use
bonded, reinforced cutting discs.

Dust/Chip Extraction
Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains
plug.
Dusts from materials such as lead-containing coatings,
some wood types, minerals and metal can be harmful to
one's health. Touching or breathing-in the dusts can cause
allergic reactions and/or lead to respiratory infections of
the user or bystanders.
Certain dusts, such as oak or beech dust, are considered
as carcinogenic, especially in connection with wood-treat-
ment additives (chromate, wood preservative). Materials
containing asbestos may only be worked by specialists.
– Use a dust extraction system suitable for the material
being worked.
– Provide for good ventilation of the working place.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respirator.
Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the
materials to be worked.
Prevent dust accumulation at the workplace. Dusts can
easily ignite.
