When not in use, the hex wrench can be conveniently stored. 

 

CAUTION:

 Always be sure that he tool is switched off and battery cartridge is 

removed before any adjustment is attempted.   

ADJUSTING DEPTH OF CUT

 

Loosen the lever on the depth guide and move the base down. 

At the desired depth of cut, secure the base by tightening the lever. 

 

CAUTION: 

Use a shallow depth of cut, when cutting thin work pieces for cleaner, safer cuts.   

After adjusting the depth of cut, always tighten the lever securely. 

 

OPERATION 

1.

 

Switch on the tool and apply to the material with the front edge of guide 

plate. 

2.

 

Align the tool with the parallel guide or a line drawn by hand prior to 

operation. 

3.

 

Hold the tool firmly by both handles. 

 

BEVEL CUTTING 

Loosen the screw on the bevel scale plate on the front of the base. Set for 

desired angle (0-45°) by tilting accordingly, then tighten the swing nut securely. 

 

CAUTION:  

Cutting work pieces that exceed the maximum cutting depth will result in 

overload of the battery. Overheating and smoke emitting from the battery 

will occur. 

 

Hints 

ƒ

 

When sawing along a line use the cutting information shown in the 

window according to the cutting angle. 

ƒ

 

Right-angled cut –indicator on 0-45°.   

ƒ

 

For bevel cuts the guide (i. e. parallel guide, ridge) must be applied 

shifted to scale (carry out a test cut). The parallel guide allows a 

maximum cutting length of 5.91 inches/150 mm and maximum cutting 

depth 1.97 inches/50 mm. 

ƒ

 

For wider cuts use a guide bar (accessory) or lead the tool along a fixed
