n
Secure long workpieces against falling off at the
end of the cut (e.g. with a roller stand etc.) (e.g.
roller table etc.)
9.1.1 Cutting narrow workpieces (Fig. 40)
Be sure
to use a push stick (17) when making
longitudinal cuts in workpieces smaller than 120 mm
in width. A push block is supplied with the saw!
Replace a worn or damaged push stick
immediately.
9.1.2 Cutting very narrow workpieces
(Fig. 41)
n
Be sure to use a push block when making
longitudinal cuts in very narrow workpieces with a
width of 30 mm and less.
n
The low guide face of the parallel stop is best
used in this case.
n
There is no push block supplied with the
saw! (Available from your specialist dealer)
Replace the push block without delay when it
becomes worn.
9.1.3 Making angular cuts (Fig. 42)
Angular cuts must always be made using the parallel
stop (7).
n
Set the blade (5) to the desired angle. (See 9.3.)
n
Set the parallel stop (7) in accordance with the
workpiece width and height (see 9.3)
n
Carry out the cut in accordance with the
workpiece width (see 10.1.1 and 10.1.2).
9.2 Making cross cuts (Fig. 31,43)
n
Slide the cross stop (13) into one of the grooves
(32) in the table and adjust to the required angle.
(see 9.6). If you also want to tilt the blade (5), use
the groove (32) which prevents your hand and the
cross stop from making contact with the blade
guard.
n
If necessary, use the stop rail (e).
n
Press the workpiece firmly against the cross stop
(13).
n
Switch on the saw.
n
Push the cross stop (13) and the workpiece
toward the blade in order to make the cut.
n
Important:
Always hold the guided part of the
workpiece. Never hold the part which is to be
cut off.
n
Push the cross stop (13) forward until the
workpiece is cut all the way through.
n
Switch off the saw again. Do not remove the
offcut until the blade has stopped rotating.
9.3 Cutting particle boards
To prevent the cutting edges from cracking when
working with particle boards, you should not set the
saw blade (5) more than 5mm greater than the
thickness of the workpiece (also see Point 9.2).
10. Replacing the power cable
If the power cable for this equipment is damaged, it
must be replaced by the manufacturer or its after-
sales service or similarly trained personnel to avoid
danger.
11. Cleaning, maintenance, storage
and transport
Always pull out the power plug before starting any
cleaning work.
11.1 Cleaning
n
Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor
housing free of dirt and dust as far as possible.
Wipe the equipment with a clean cloth or blow it
down with compressed air at low pressure.
n
We recommend that you clean the equipment
immediately after you use it.
n
Clean the equipment regularly with a damp cloth
and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents
or solvents; these may be aggressive to the
plastic parts in the equipment. Ensure that no
water can get into the interior of the equipment.
11.2 Carbon brushes
In case of excessive sparking, have the carbon
brushes checked only by a qualified electrician.
Important. The carbon brushes should not be
replaced by anyone but a qualified electrician.
11.3 Servicing
There are no parts inside the equipment which
require additional maintenance.
11.4 Storage
Store the equipment and accessories out of children’s
reach in a dark and dry place at above freezing
temperature. The ideal storage temperature is
between 5 and 30 °C. Store the electric tool in its
original packaging.
