Operation
Pull the plug out of the socket before carrying out any
u
work on the power tool.
Transport Safety Lock (see figure A)
The transport safety lock (26) makes it easier to handle the
power tool when transporting it to various working locations.
Unlocking the Power Tool (Work Position)
– Press the glide arm (23) down slightly by the handle (3)
to release the transport safety lock (26).
– Pull the transport safety lock (26) all the way out.
– Slowly guide the glide arm (23) upwards.
Locking the Power Tool (Transport Position)
– Slide the glide arm (23) all the way back and secure it in
this position.
– Guide the glide arm downwards until you can press the
transport safety lock (26) all the way in.

Locking the Glide Arm
The glide mechanism of the glide arm (23) can be locked
with the clamping lever (2). The glide arm can be placed in
two positions:
– Glide arm pushed all the way back (for cross cuts)
– Glide arm pulled all the way forward (for a compact trans-
port position)
Unlocking the Glide Arm (see figure B1)
After unlocking the glide arm (23), the whole gliding mech-
anism is ready for operation.
– Press the clamping lever (2) all the way down.
– The clamping wedge of the clamping lever releases the
two articulated parts at the bottom of the glide arm.
When sawing mitre and/or bevel angles, you have to pull the left-hand or right-hand adjustable fence (7) outwards depending
on the cutting direction, or remove it completely.

Adjusting the damping of the glide arm (see figure F)
The glide mechanism of the glide arm (23) is preset at the
factory and is not damped when the power tool is delivered.
The damping of the glide mechanism can be adjusted using
the damper (47):
1 609 92A 5U5 | (01.10.2020)
Securing the Glide Arm (see figure B2)
Glide arm pushed all the way back:
– Push the glide arm (23) all the way back.
– The two articulated parts at the top of the glide arm are
now upright and closed.
– Pull the clamping lever (2) upwards until the clamping
wedge is positioned between the two articulated parts at
the bottom of the glide arm.
– This locks the glide arm (23), which is pushed all the way
back.
Glide arm pulled all the way forward:
– Pull the glide arm (23) all the way forward.
– The glide mechanism is now completely extended.
– Pull the clamping lever (2) upwards until the clamping
wedge is positioned between the two articulated parts at
the bottom of the glide arm.
– This locks the glide arm (23), which is pulled all the way
forward.
Preparing for operation
Extending the Saw Table (see figure C)
The free end of long workpieces must have something
placed underneath it or be supported.
The workpiece support on the saw table can be extended left
and right using the extension bar (16).
– Push the clamping lever (18) inwards.
– Pull out the extension bar (16) to the required length
(maximum 204 mm).
– To lock the extension bar in place, push the clamping
lever (18) back out.
Moving the fence (see figures D–E)
– Loosen the locking screw (46).
– Pull the left-hand adjustable fence (7) all the way out.
– Loosen the locking screw (46).
– Pull the left-hand adjustable fence (7) all the way out.
– Lift the adjustable fence upwards and out of the way.
– Remove the locking screw (46).
– Loosen the locking screw (46).
– Pull the right-hand adjustable fence (7) all the way out.
– Lift the adjustable fence upwards and out of the way.
Hard – for more controlled work movements;
Soft – for fast saw cuts.
– For softer damping, loosen the two set screws (48) using
the hex key (4 mm) (30)
