Ceramic tiles and slate
• Use a suitable blade. It is necessary to use
dust extraction, because the dust which
is created can hinder the movement of the
protective cover.
• Place protective tape or PVC tape on the base
plate or on the object to be sawn. This makes
it easier to saw and protects the tiles against
becoming scratched.
Practice sawing wood before trying
something more complicated, such as
metal or some types of plastic. More
force is required to hold the object to be
sawn and you may sometimes have to
use clamps to keep the object in place.
Dust extraction
Fig. 1
The Precision Circular Saw is a powerful saw. A
lot of dust will be produced when sawing. Since
the blade is fully enclosed, it is necessary to
extract the dust.
A vacuum cleaner can be attached to the saw's
dust extraction pipe (8) using the dust adapter
included with the machine.
• Make sure the vacuum cleaner is suitable for
use with an electrical machine. In general,
household water and dust vacuum cleaners
are suitable.
• It is recommended to use dust extraction when
a lot of sawing is to carried out, because less
breaks will then be required to clean the saw
and the surroundings.
• It is necessary to extract the dust when sawing
dangerous materials, such as hardwood, MDF
and ceramics.
• It is recommended to extract dust if you wish
to keep the work area clean.
• It is necessary to extract the dust if the
material to be sawn is damp.

when carrying out maintenance work on
the motor.
This machine has been designed to operate
12
over a long period of time with a minimum of

depends upon proper machine care and regular
cleaning.
Maintenance
Machines are designed to function without
problems for a long time with a minimum of
maintenance. Cleaning the saw regularly and
handling it properly will help extend its lifespan.
Cleaning
For safety reasons, the saw must be cleaned
regularly. A build-up of dust can affect the
operation of the saw.
• Remove the plug from the plug socket.
• Remove the protective cover and clean it
thoroughly using a soft brush, such as a paint
brush.
• Clean the housing regularly with a soft cloth,
preferably each time after use. Make sure that
the ventilation holes are free of dust and dirt.
Use a damp soft cloth to remove stubborn dirt.
Do not use any solvents such as petrol, alcohol
or ammonia, etc. These types of substances
damage the plastic parts.
Lubrication
The device does not need any additional
lubrication.
