When sawing wood pieces, sawdust and dust get into the work area
which can cause breathing difficulties.

Wear your personal protective equipment, in particular the mask,
when cleaning.
ATTENTION
Damage to the rocker circular saw!
The performance of the saw blades decreases when cutting
unsuitable wood pieces.
›
Only cut wood pieces whose dimensions correspond to the
specified dimensions.
›
Remove all nails and metallic objects from the workpiece to be
cut before cutting.
›
Make sure that the wood pieces contain no cables, ropes, etc.
›
Secure the rocker circular saw against movement using the support
(see “Setting up the transport protection” on page 62).

Switch on the rocker circular saw.
›
Wait until the rocker circular saw has reached the operating speed.

Insert one or more wood pieces on the left-hand side of the wood
insertion area of the rocker.
Wood pieces may have a maximum diameter of 190 mm
