When the hand-held circular saw is added, the
movable safety guard is swung backwards by the
workpiece.
While sawing, do not take the machine out of
the material if the saw disc is still rotating.
Instead, let the saw disc come to a standstill first.
If the saw disc blocks, turn the machine off
immediately.
How to saw following a straight marking: this is
what the cut indicator (6) is for. The width of the cut
indicator represents roughly the width of the saw
disc.
How to saw following a small rail attached to
the workpiece: In order to achieve an exact
cutting edge, you can attach a rail to the workpiece
and then guide the hand-held circular saw by
means of the guide plate (3) along this rail.
Sawing with a parallel guide:
For cuts parallel to a straight edge.
The parallel stop (8) can be inserted from the right
into its holding fixture. Read off the cut width on
the right of the cut indicator (6). Tighten the locking
screw (7). It is best to calculate the exact cut width
by making a test cut.
Sawing with a guide rail:
This can be used to make straight-line, tear-free
cut edges, precise to the millimetre. The anti-slip
coating keeps the surface safe and protects the
workpiece against scratches. See section
Accessories.
9 Maintenance
Clean the machine regularly. This includes vacuum
cleaning the ventilation louvres on the motor.
Changing saw discs
Pull the plug out of the plug socket before
any adjustments or servicing are performed.
Press in the spindle locking button (15) and hold in
place. Turn the saw spindle slowly with the spanner in
the saw disc fixing screw (20) until the lock catches.
Remove the saw disc locking screw (20) by turning
it in counter-clockwise direction.
Pull back the movable safety guard (22) and
remove the saw disc (19).
The contact areas between the inner saw disc
flange (18), the saw disc (19) and the saw disc
fixing screw (20) must be clean.
In order to ensure that the safety clutch
functions properly, the saw disc fixing
screw (20) must be coated with a thin layer of
grease at its point of contact with the saw disc.
16
Re-lubricate with multi-purpose grease
(DIN 51825 - ME / HC 3/4 K -30).
Insert a new saw disc, making sure the direction
of rotation is correct. The direction of rotation is
indicated by arrows on the saw disc and safety
guard.
Tighten the saw disc fixing screw (20).
Only use sharp, undamaged saw discs. Do
not use saw discs that are cracked or that
have changed their shape.
Do not use any saw discs which have a
thicker base body or a smaller width cut than
the splitting wedge.
Do not use any saw discs made from high-
alloy high-speed steel (HSS).
Do not use any saw discs which do not
conform to the specified rating.
The saw disc must be suitable for the no-
load speed.
Use a saw blade that is suitable for the
material being sawn.

If you need accessories, check with your dealer.
For dealers to select the correct accessory, they
need to know the exact model designation of your
power tool.
