• A wood underlay can be used to achieve a
better cutting quality. The wood underlay will,
however, be damaged.
6.6 Extraction of dust and splinters (Figure 6)
Attention! When working with items coated in lead-
containing 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.
• Connect the suction hose (9) to the dust
extraction connection (6).
• Make sure that the seal inside the smaller of
the connecting pieces on the hose (9) fits on to
the dust extraction connection (6).
• Turn the suction hose to the right until it engages.
Attach a suitable dust extraction device.
notes:
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. 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.
6.7 Auxiliary handle (Figure 4)
Screw the auxiliary handle (12) into the
attachment point on the upper side of the
housing.
Attention! Always use the electric power tool with
the auxiliary handle attached.

7.1 general instructions
• Select a suitable tool insert for the material
that is to be worked on.
• Check the condition and sharpness of the tool
insert.
• Always hold the electric power tool with a firm
grip.
• Exert no force! Push the electric power tool
forwards, gently and evenly.
• The electric power tool must not be braked
with the hand or by applying lateral pressure.
• The safety guard may not be blocked and
must be returned to the starting position after
the final working step.
• Before use of the electric power tool, inspect
the function of the safety guard with the tool
unplugged from the mains.
• Before each use of the electric power tool,
make sure that the safety mechanisms such
as the safety guard, flanges and adjustment
devices are functioning and/or are correctly
installed and fastened.
• A suitable dust extraction system is to be
connected to the dust extraction connection
(6). Make sure that the dust extraction is
correctly and securely attached.
7.2 Set the rotation speed
• Before starting work, set a suitable rotation
speed for the application. For example, when
working with soft materials a higher rotation
speed will be set than for hard materials.
• To adjust the rotation speed, turn the
adjustment wheel (14) according to the
application. For the lowest rotation speed set
the wheel to "1"; the maximum rotation speed
is achieved with a setting of "6".
7.3 Switching on and off
Switching on: Slide the On/Off switch (1) towards
the rear, press and hold.
Switching off: Release the On/Off switch (1).
7.4 overload protection
The electric power tool is equipped with an overload
protection. The overload indicator (2) displays the
operating condition of the electric power tool.
Overload indicator (2) flashing: The electric power
tool is approaching the limiting load – reduce the
