1. Lift the adjustment ring (14) and turn in such a 

way that the indexable insert (21) does not 

remove any material. (chamfer height = 0 mm)

2. Loosen the two clamping screws (13). 

3. Turn the graduated ring (13) until the chamfer 

height 0 mm is shown.

4. Tighten the two clamping screws (13).

5. Carry out trial cut.

Chips and particles can deposit at the cutter head. 

This can lead to blockage of the cutter head. 

Regularly clean the cutter head and its 

surroundings and remove chips and particles.
It is possible that particles deposit inside the power 

tool during operation. This impairs the cooling of the 

power tool. Conductive build-up can impair the 

protective insulation of the power tool and cause 

electrical hazards.
The power tool should be cleaned regularly, often 

and thoroughly through all front and rear air vents 

using a vacuum cleaner or by blowing in dry air. 

Prior to this operation, separate the power tool from 

the power source and wear protective glasses and 

dust mask.

10.1 Mains powered machines:

-

Overload protection: There is a MAJOR 

reduction in load speed.

 The motor temperature 

is too high! Allow the machine to run at idle speed 

until it has cooled down.

-

Overload protection: There is a MINOR 

reduction in load speed.

 The machine is 

overloaded. Reduce the load before continuing to 

work.

-

Metabo S-automatic safety shut-down: The 

machine has SHUT DOWN by itself.

 If the slew 

rate of the current is too high (for example, if the 

machine suddenly seizes or kickback occurs), the 

machine switches off. Switch off the machine 

using the slide switch (4). Switch it on again and 

continue to work as normal. Try to prevent the 

machine from seizing. See chapter 3.1.

-

Restart protection: The machine does not 

start. 

The restart protection is active. If the mains 

plug is inserted with the machine switched on, or if 

the power supply is restored following an 

interruption, the machine does not start up. Switch 

the machine off and on again.

10.2 Cordless machines:

-

The electronic signal display (8) lights up and 

the load speed decreases.

 The temperature is 

too high! Run the machine in idling until the 

electronics signal indicator switches off.

-

The electronic signal display (8) flashes and 

the machine does not start. 

The restart 

protection is active. The machine will not start if 

the battery pack is inserted while the machine is 

on. Switch the machine off and on again.

Use only genuine Metabo accessories.
Use only accessories which fulfil the requirements 

and specifications listed in these operating 

instructions.
Fit accessories securely. If the machine is operated 

in a holder: Secure the machine well. Loss of control 

can cause personal injury.

Repairs to electrical tools must ONLY be 

carried out by qualified electricians! 

Contact your local Metabo representative if you 

have Metabo power tools requiring repairs. See 

www.metabo.com for addresses.
You can download a list of spare parts from 

www.metabo.com.

Observe national regulations on environmentally 

compatible disposal and on the recycling of disused 

machines, packaging and accessories.

Special notes regarding cordless machines:

Battery packs may not be disposed of with regular 

waste. Return faulty or used battery packs to your 

Metabo dealer!
Do not allow battery packs to come into contact with 

water!
Before disposal, discharge the battery pack in the 

power tool. Prevent the contacts from short-

circuiting (e. g. by protecting them with adhesive 

tape).
