Sawing with Rip Fence
The rip fence
35
(sold separately) enables
exact cuts along a workpiece edge and
cutting strips of the same dimension.
A.
Slide the guide rods of rip fence
35
through the guides in footplate
7
(Fig.
28).
B.
Thread the wing bolt assembly
35a
into
front mounting
10
. Thread the wing bolt
35b
into rear mounting
17
. Do not
tighten the wing bolts yet (Fig. 28).
C.
Adjust the desired cutting width as the
scale value at the respective line guides
33
or
34
, see section “Cutting Line
Guides”.
D.
Tighten the wing bolts
35a and 35b
.
Sawing with Straight Edge
Guide
For sawing large workpieces or straight
edges, a board or strip can be secured with
clamp
C
(sold separately) to the workpiece
as a straight edge guide. The footplate of
the circular saw can be guided alongside
the straight edge guide
36
(Fig. 30).
•
The s t r a i g h t e d g e g u i d e should be
positioned such that the motor side of
the saw rides against it when cutting the
desired line.
•
The deeper the cut, the thinner the
straight edge guide must be, because
the clearance below the battery pack
along the motor side of the base can be
limited.
•
Ensure that the clamps do not interfere
with free movement of the saw.
