Saw blade selection 

Use  a  sharp  tool  to  obtain  a  good  cut  quality  and 
select  a  tool  from  the  following  list  according  to 

material and application: 

  

For  cuts  along  and  across  the  grain  in  soft  or 
hard wood: 

Circular saw blade carbide Ø 160 x 1.8 x 20 mm 
(6.30 x 0.07 x 0.79 in.), 32 teeth 

  

For cuts especially along the grain in soft or hard 
wood: 

Circular saw blade carbide Ø 160 x 1.8 x 20 mm 

(6.30 x 0.07 x 0.79 in.), 16 teeth 

  

For  cuts  especially  across  the  grain  in  soft  or 
hard wood: 

Circular saw blade carbide Ø 162 x 1.8 x 20 mm 

(6.38 x 0.07 x 0.79 in.), 48 teeth 

  

For cuts in fibre cement board: 

Diamond saw blade Ø 160 x 3.0 x 20 mm (6.30 x 

0.12 x 0.79 in.), 4 teeth

Saw blade change 

 

Danger 
Unplug the rechargeable battery for 

all service work. 

  

 

To fold the saw guard cover 23 (Fig.3) down on 
the  side,  press  push-button  2  (Fig.  4)  and  pull 
up the locking lever 3. Pulling the locking lever 
automatically locks the saw shaft and locks the 

gearshift lever. 

 

Use the Allen key 4 (brackets Fig. 2) to release 
the flange screw 5 (Fig. 3) counter clockwise. 
Remove the screw and the front clamping flange 

6.  

 

You can now remove the saw blade by lifting it 

to the front. 

 

The clamping flanges must be  free of adhering 

parts.  

 

Pay  attention  to  the  sense  of  rotation  when 

inserting the saw blade.  

 

Afterwards,  mount  the  clamping  flange,  attach 
the  flange  screw  and  tighten  it  by  clockwise 

turning.  

 

Lock the saw guard cover. To this end, close the 
cover  and  press  the  locking  lever  3  (Fig.3) 

downwards.

Operation 

5.1

 

Initial operation 

Personnel  entrusted  to  work  with  the  machine  must 
be  made  aware  of  the  operating  instructions,  calling 
particular  attention  to  the  chapter  "Safety 

instructions". 

  

5.2

 

Switching on and off 

 

Switching on: Press the switch-on lock 7 (Fig. 
4)  forward  to  unlock  it.  Then  actuate  switch 
trigger  8  (Fig.  4)  when  the  switch-on  lock  is 

pressed. 

  

As  this  is  a  switch  without  locking  device,  the 
machine will only run for as long as this shift lever is 

pressed. 
The  built-in  electronic  system  provides  for  jerk-free 
acceleration  when  the  machine  is  switched  on  and 

under load readjusts the speed to the fixed setting. 
In  addition,  this  electronic  system  adjusts  the  motor 
down in case of overload, i.e. the saw blade will stop. 
Switch  the  machine  off  then.  Then  switch  the 
machine on again and continue sawing at a reduced 

feed speed. 

  

 

Switching off:Release switch trigger 8 (Fig. 4) 
to switch off the machine. 

  

5.3

 

Cutting depth adjustment 

The cutting depth is continuously variable between 0 
and 57 mm (0 to 2 ¼ in.), graduated in 1 mm steps. 

  

Proceed as follows: 

  

 

Adjust the indicator 10 (Fig. 4) by turning it into 
the  top  or  bottom  position,  depending  on 
whether  you  are  working  with  or  without  the 

guide rail. 

 

Set  the  cutting  depth  with  the  depth  stop  11 
according  to  the  scale.  The  limit  stop  has  a  1 

mm latching mechanism. 

 

In order to set intermediate measurements, you 
can turn the cylinder screw 12 (Fig. 4) with the 
Allen key 4 (retaining bracket Fig. 2). One turn 

corresponds to 1 mm change in cutting depth.
