Determining the Cutting Line
The cutting line (9) is marked on the base plate (4) of the plunge saw.
Align cutting line (9) at the front and back of the base plate with your marked
cutting line when using the plunge saw without guide rail for straight cuts.
Dust Extraction
Attention! When working with items coated in leadcontaining paint, for
example, or with some types of wood, harmful or poisonous dust particles may
be generated. This presents a danger both for the user and for other people
nearby. Protect yourself with suitable personal safety clothing and equipment
and keep other people away from the working area. Connect an extraction
system or a vacuum cleaner to the electric power tool. This will provide you
with optimum extraction of dust and splinters from the workpiece.
Advantages: You preserve both the electric power tool and your health.
Moreover, you're working area remains clean and safe.
1. Connect the suction hose (23) to the dust extraction flange (11).
2. Attach a suitable dust extraction device.
Notes:
 Make sure that the vacuum cleaner is suitable for use with the electric
power tool. Most dry vacuum cleaners for domestic use are well suited to
this purpose.
 The vacuum cleaner is particularly useful if many cuts are being performed
successively. It means that less frequent stops are required to clean the
electric power tool and the workplace.
 When you are cutting materials which may produce dangerous dust,
always use a vacuum cleaner. This applies, in particular, to hardwoods,
MDF sheets and ceramics.
 Do not use dust extraction when cutting metal. Metal dust may be explosive
and should not be stirred up into the air.
Preparation
 Before each use check the proper function of
all installation fixtures of the plunge saw and
only use the plunge saw if everything works
properly.
 Attach the work piece in such way that it cannot move or bend during work.
Line the work piece respectively, e.g. with scrap strips of wood.
