8.1 Free hand according to the
scribe mark
The triangular shape of the splinterguard [4-
3] shows the cutting line of the saw blade
and thus facilitates cutting to a scribe mark.
8.2 Plunge cutting without pilot
drilling
The base runner must be in the front position
for plunge cuts in timber materials (basic
setting, see Figure [1]).
Place saw on the front edge of the runner.
Set saw to maximum no. of strokes and pen-
dulum stroke setting 3 and start the plunge
cut into the workpiece (Figure [6]).
Damaged safety devices and components
must be repaired or replaced in a recognised
specialist workshop, unless otherwise indi-
cated in the operating manual.
To ensure constant air circulation, always
keep the cooling air openings in the motor
housing clean and free of blockages.
Use only original Protool accessories and
Protool consumable material intended for
this machine because these components are
designed specifically for the machine. Using
accessories and consumable material from
other suppliers will most likely affect the
quality of your working results and limit any
warranty claims. Machine wear or your own
personal workload may increase depending
on the application. Protect yourself and your
machine, and preserve your warranty claims
by always using original Protool accessories
and Protool consumable material!

ner:
