attached as shown in Fig. 34. To do this,
use the carriage bolt (o).
Caution:
Do not push the stop rail (g) too far toward
the blade.
Distance between the stop rail (g) and saw
blade (5) should be about 2cm.
9.7 Adjusting the scale of the cross stop
(Fig. 35)
Set an angle of 90° on the saw blade (5).
Attach the cross stop (13) to the stop rail (g)
of the parallel stop (7).(See also 9.6).
Loosen the knurled screw (30) on the cross
stop (13).
Position the cross stop (13) so that the stop
rail is at a 90° angle to the saw blade (5).
Now align the cross stop exactly with the
saw blade with the aid of the 90° angle and
re-tighten the knurled screw (30).
Check that the cross stop shows exactly
90°. If this is not the case, proceed as
follows:
Loosen both screws (p) which are holding
the scale (q) of the cross stop (13) to the
cross stop enough so that this can be
adjusted to the correct position.
Now re-tighten the screws (p).
9.8 Adjusting the scale on the saw bench
(Fig. 30; 36)
Make sure that the parallel stop (7) runs in
line with the saw blade (5) (see also 9.5)
Set the parallel stop so that it touches the
saw blade (5) (Setting for thick material, see
also 9.4)
Loosen the screw (r) which attaches the
scale (k; l) to the chain bar (12) by about 2
turns.
Adjust the scale (k/l) so that the line on the
gauge (m) of the parallel stop (7) is the
same as the zero line on the scale (k).
Re-tighten the screw (r).
9.9 Using the laser (Fig 37-40)
The laser (31) enables you to make
precision cuts with your circular saw.
The laser light is produced by a laser diode
which is powered by two batteries. The
laser light is enlarged to form a line and is
emitted through the laser emission aperture.
You can then use the line as an optical
marker for the sawing line for precision cuts.
Follow the laser safety instructions.
Insertion of batteries:
- Remove the saw blade guard (2). (See
8.4) The laser is attached to the splitter (4)
and therefore now easily accessible.
- Set the Laser ON/OFF switch (32) to the 0
position (laser off).
- To remove the battery compartment cover
(34), loosen the screw (33) and fold the
battery compartment away sideways.
- Insert the batteries. Make sure of the right
polarity (see Fig. 39).
- Replace the battery compartment cover
(34) and fasten it with the screws (33).
Re-attach the saw blade guard (2).
To switch the laser ON: Set the ON/OFF
switch to I. The ON/OFF switch (32) is
easily accessible when the saw blade guard
is attached (2) because of a recess in the
saw blade guard (Fig. 40). Now a red laser
beam is projected from the laser emission
aperture. Using a laser beam along the
intersection marking when sawing can
ensure more precise cuts.
To switch the laser OFF: Set the ON/OFF
switch (32) to 0. The laser beam is
extinguished. Please turn the laser off when
it is not being used, to protect the batteries.
The laser beam can be affected by deposits
of dust and chips. Therefore remove these
particles from the laser emission aperture
after each use.
10. Operation
Important!!
After each new adjustment, we recommend
a trial cut to test the adjusted measurement.
After turning the saw on, wait until the saw
blade has reached its maximum rotation
speed before starting to cut.
Caution when cutting into the wood.
