5.7 Sawing along a line
Note
Secure the workpiece to prevent movement.
Position the workpiece so that the saw blade is free to rotate beneath it.
Check to ensure that the on/off switch on the product is in the "off" position.
Position the forward section of the saw's base plate on the workpiece but do not bring the blade into
contact with the workpiece.
1. Fit the battery into the product.
2. While pressing the safety lock, switch the product on by pressing the on/off button.
3. Guide the product along the cutting line on the workpiece at a suitable speed.
5.8 Fitting / adjusting the rip fence (parallel guide)
1. Pull the battery out of the product to the rear.
2. Screw the clamping screw into the baseplate, leaving enough space to slide the parallel guide through.
3. Slide the rip fence guide under the clamping screw.
4. Set the desired cutting width.
5. Tighten the clamping screw.
5.9 Fitting the guide rail adapter
Note
The saw can be equipped with a guide rail adapter which is available as an accessory.
1. Remove the battery.
2. Remove the rip fence, if one is fitted.
3. Fit the base plate into the side retaining channels of the guide rail adapter.
4. Fully insert the base plate into the guide rail adapter.
5. Lock the guide rail adapter by pressing in the two sliders as far as they will go.
5.9.1 Longitudinal cuts at 0°
1. Place the saw on the guide rail so that the rib fits into the groove in the adapter.
2. Guide the saw along the rail.
5.9.2 Longitudinal cuts at angles up to 50 °
1. Set the angle.
2. Guide the saw along the guide rail with the outer edge of the guide rail adapter on the rib on the guide
rail. The saw blade will otherwise collide with the guide rail.
5.9.3 Making cuts at an angle across the surface of the workpiece
1. Position the guide rail with the zero mark at the edge of the workpiece and then pivot the rail until the
desired angle shown on the angle scale is opposite the zero mark. The cutting angle indicated is the
angle of deviation from a straight, right-angled cut.
2. Use the two screw clamps to secure the guide rail.
5.10 Using the saw without a dust and chip removal system
1. Check that the sawdust is ejected without obstruction.
2. If required, the hose connector can be removed from the blade guard after releasing the hex. socket
screw using the wrench supplied (located on the product).
