Connecting the Dust Extraction
Place a vacuum hose 3 (accessory) onto the vac-
uum connection 4. Connect the vacuum hose 3
with a vacuum cleaner (accessory). An overview
for the connection of various vacuum cleaners
can be found at the end of these instructions.
Switch the saw dust blower off when a dust ex-
traction system is connected (see "Sawdust
Blower Device").
The vacuum cleaner must be suitable for the ma-
terial being worked.
When vacuuming dry dust that is especially det-
rimental to health or carcinogenic, use a special
vacuum cleaner.
Operation

Operating Modes

Before any work on the machine itself, pull
the mains plug.
Adjusting the Cutting Angle (see figures D–E)
The base plate 5 can be swivelled by 45° to the
left or right for mitre cuts.
Insert a saw blade 8.
The splinter guard 14 can not be inserted for mi-
tre cuts.
Loosen the screw 17 and lightly slide the base
plate 5 toward the vacuum connection 4.
For adjustment of precise mitre angles, the base
plate has adjustment notches on the left and
right at 0°, 22.5° and 45°. Swivel the base plate
5 to the desired position according to the scale
18. Other mitre angles can be adjusted using a
protractor.
Afterwards, push the base plate 5 to the stop in
the direction of the saw blade 8.
Position the holder for the guide roller 16 in
such a manner that the guide roller 7 faces
against the back of the saw blade. Precise cuts
are possible only when the guide roller faces
tightly against the back of the saw blade.
Tighten the screw 17 again.

Cut Control for Bevel Cuts
22 9 10 5
For cutting-line control of bevel cuts, the "Cut
Control" viewing window 9 has a mark 22 for 0°
right-angle cuts and a mark 23 each for the left-
or rightward sloping 45° bevel cut according to
scale 18.
The cutting mark for bevel cuts between 0° and
45° results proportionally. It can additionally be
drawn on the "Cut Control" viewing window 9
with a non-permanent marker, and easily be re-
moved again.
For accurate working, it is best to carry out a
test cut.
Offsetting the Base Plate (see figure D)
For sawing close to edges, the base plate 5 can
be offset to the rear.
Insert a saw blade 8.
Loosen the screw 17 and slide the base plate 5
toward the vacuum connection 4 to the stop.
Position the holder for the guide roller 16 in
such a manner that the guide roller 7 faces
against the back of the saw blade. Precise cuts
are possible only when the guide roller faces
tightly against the back of the saw blade.
Tighten the screw 17 again.
Sawing with the base plate 5 offset is possible
only at a 0° bevel angle. Additionally, "Cut Con-
trol" may not be used together with the base 10,
the parallel guide with circle cutter 19 (accesso-
ry), as well as the splinter guard 14.
