Blade guard
– Always ensure that the BS-BG blade guard is in place when the saw
is in operation. The blade guard is in two sections to permit cutting
into corners.
– Thanks to its symmetrical design, the blade guard can simply be
turned to permit cutting into a corner to the left or right (or upwards
and downwards) without removing the blade from the kerf.
– Use the 10 mm AF hex. wrench, item no 221193/6, to tighten the
blade guard holder. The blade guard than always stays in the same
position.
– Use the DS-BGF blade guard (open on one side) for flush cutting.

Using the DS-RFP angular cutting plate
– The angular cutting plate is used for sawing on stairs, in tunnels and
for cutting at an angle of up to 45°.
– Align the equipment by using a protractor to measure the angle at the
blade when mounted on the saw.
– Due to the angle of the blade, cutting depth is reduced. The blade is
also subjected to additional bending loads. Please refer to the follow-
ing table for setting-up dimensions and cutting depths.
IMPORTANT:
When making angular cuts, make a shallow guide cut and begin cut-
ting gently!

Flush cutting using the innovative DS-FCA-110 flush-cutting flange
– As for standard sawing applications, the blade can be fitted after the
saw has been mounted on the rail. (Old method: The saw and the fit-
ted saw blade had to be lifted together onto the rail and the saw blade
guided into the kerf.)
– Use the new 2-piece DS-FCA-110 flush-cutting flange, item no.
258436/5. It will permit more rapid progress and help prevent back
injuries caused by lifting heavy loads.
– The Hilti saw system can be preassembled and positioned precisely,
to the millimetre.
– The electric remote control system permits the saw arm to be pivot-
ed effortlessly into position in the saw blade.
– Spindle speeds and the sawing procedure are as for standard appli-
cations.
