5.2 Miter stop (Figure 4/5)
•
The preset standard angle between the saw
foot (6) and saw blade (12) is 90°. You can
adjust this angle to carry out angled cuts.
•
Release the locking lever for miter setting (7)
on the front of the saw foot.
•
You can now adjust the cutting angle to
around 45°. Keep an eye on the cutting angle
scale (9) as you do so.
•
Refasten the locking lever for miter setting (7).
Check the handle is securely fastened.
5.3 Extraction of dust and chips (Figure 6)
•
Connect a suitable vacuum cleaner (a) to the
provided chip extractor connector (14) of your
circular saw (vacuum cleaner not included).
This will provide excellent dust extraction on
the workpiece. The benefits are that you will
protect both the equipment and your own
health. Your work area will also be cleaner
and safer.
•
Dust created when working may be dange-
rous. Refer to the section entitled "Safety inst-
ructions".
•
Important! The vacuum cleaner you use for
the extraction work must be suitable for the
workpiece material.
•
Check that all the parts are properly connec-
ted.
5.4 Parallel stop (Figure 7/8)
•
The parallel stop (16) enables you to saw par-
allel lines.
•
Loosen the locking screw for the parallel stop
(8) on the saw foot (6).
•
To assemble, slide the parallel stop (16) into
the guide (a) on the saw foot (6)
(see Figure 7)
•
Set the required spacing and then tighten the
locking screw (8) again.
•
Using the parallel stop: Position the parallel
stop (16) flat on the edge of the workpiece
and start the cut.
Important! Carry out a trial cut in a piece of
waste wood

6. Operation
6.1 Working with the hand-held circular saw
•
Always hold the circular saw firmly.
•
The swing guard hood (19) is pushed back
automatically by the workpiece.
•
Do not use force! Push forwards gently and
evenly with the circular saw.
•
The waste piece should be on the right-hand
side of the circular saw so that the wide
section of the support bench supports its full
area.
•
If you are sawing down a line that has been
drawn, guide the circular saw along the corre-
sponding notch.
•
Clamp small pieces of wood securely before
sawing them. Never hold them with your
hand.
•
Always follow the safety instructions. Wear
safety goggles.
•
Do not use defective saw blades or blades
that are cracked or broken.
•
Do not use any flanges / flange nuts whose
bore hole is larger or smaller than those in the
saw blade.
•
The saw blade must not be decelerated by
hand or by applying lateral pressure to the
blade.
•
The swing guard hood must not jam and must
return to its initial position after the operation
has been completed.
•
Before you use the circular saw, check the
function of the swing guard hood with the
mains plug disconnected.
•
Before you use the machine, ensure that the
safety equipment such as the swing guard
hood, splitter, flanges and adjustment de-
vices are in working order and are correctly
adjusted and secure.
•
You can connect a suitable dust extraction
system to the sawdust extraction connector
(14). Ensure that the dust extractor line is sa-
fely and correctly connected.
•
The moving swing guard hood must not be
fixed in the retracted guard hood when the
saw is in use.
•
Saw blades whose main body is thicker or
tooth set thinner than the thickness of the
splitter must not be used.
Important. Always pull out the power plug
before doing any work on the circular saw!
