OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
The saw is started by pressing the ON/OFF
switch, the switch can be maintained in the ope-
rating position by using the lock-on button. The
lock-on button can be released by press and re-
leasing the ON/OFF switch once more.
ELECTRONIC SPEED
REGULATOR
The electronic speed
control wheel is used to
program the required
saw speed.
In this way, the speed
can be adapted to the
material being worked.
Turn forward for speed up, otherwise down.
The figure is larger, the speed is quicker.
PENDULUM STROKE ADJUSTMENT
Together with the electronic speed regulation,
the pendulum stroke adjustment helps to set
the best combination of blade speed and ag-
gressiveness needed to achieve a desired cut
rate and fineness.
The pendular knob
is used to make the
adjustment. The best
pendulum stroke set-
ting for the particular
work to be carried out
obtained from the fol-
low table;
NOTE: When using a knife blade, the pendulum
setting should be 0. We recommend the use of
appropriate lubricants for cutting metal.
SAW SHOE ADJUSTMENT FOR ANGULAR
CUTTING
Disconnect the unit from the power supply.
Raise the safety guard and loosen the hex
screws on the shoe plate with the hex key taken
form its holder.
Pull the shoe plate
backward and set the
desired angular adjust-
ment according to the
scale or push the shoe
plate forward for fixed
locks at 0˚, 15˚, 30˚ or
45˚.
Tighten the hex screw again. Always replace the
hex key in the hex key holder of shoe plate im-
mediately after use.
DUST EXTRACTION
In order to improve dust extraction from the
working surface, the saw has a saw dust blow-
ing system which clears dust from the cutting
line. In addition a vacuum cleaner adapter can
be used to connect an ordinary household vac-
uum cleaner.
ADDITIONAL OPERATION ADVICE
POCKET CUTTING
The saw blade can be inserted directly into a
wood surface without first drilling a pilot hole
thus eliminating drilling operation.
First measure and clearly mark the surface to be
cut.
Then tip the saw forward
so that the rounded tips
of the shoe rest on the
work surface, but with
the blade well clear of it.
Switch ON and move the
saw in its tilted-up position until the moving
blade is exactly over the chosen point of entry.
Lower the rear of the shoe toward the work
maintaining a firm pivoting.
Pressure in the shoe lips with the blade ex-
actly on lined NOT MOVE THE SAW FORWARD
ALONG ITS CUT until the saw blade has com-
pletely entered the material and the shoe comes
to rest flat on its surface.
SUGGESTIONS FOR PROPER USE
• Cut at an even rate and take care not to over
load the saw.
• Excessive force on the saw will prevent the
pendulum action operating correctly and re-
duce the cutting efficiency.
