Adjusting Bevel Angles
Adjusting Standard Bevel Angles (see figure L)
For quick and precise adjustment of commonly used bevel an-
gles, stops are provided for 0°, 45° and 33.9° angles.
– Loosen clamping lever
23
.
– Adjust stops
19
or
26
as follows:
– Swing the tool arm with the handle
4
to the requested po-
sition.
– Tighten clamping lever
23
again.
Adjusting Any Bevel Angle
The bevel angle can be set in a range from –2° to +47°.
– Loosen clamping lever
23
.
– Turn stop
19
completely to the front and pull stop
26
com-
pletely to the front.
The complete tilting range is now available.
– Tilt the tool arm by the handle
4
until the angle indicator
25
indicates the desired bevel angle.
– Hold the tool arm in this position and tighten clamping le-
ver
23
again.
Starting Operation
f
Observe the mains voltage!
The voltage of the power
source must correspond with the data on the type plate of
the machine.
Switching On (see figure M)
– For
starting operation
, pull the On/Off switch
33
in the di-
rection of the handle
4
.
Note:
For safety reasons, the On/Off switch
33
cannot be
locked; it must remain pressed during the entire operation.
The tool arm can only be guided downward when pressing le-
ver
22
.
– For
sawing
, you must additionally press lever
22
in addi-
tion to actuating the On/Off switch
33
.
Switching Off
– To
switch off
the machine, release the On/Off switch
33
.
When not using the power tool, switch it off in order to save
energy.
Reduced starting current
The electronic reduced starting current limits the power con-
sumption when switching the tool on and enables operation
from a 13 ampere fuse.
Note:
When the machine runs at full speed immediately after
switching on, the reduced starting current has failed. The
power tool should be sent immediately to an after-sales serv-
ice (for addresses, see section “After-sales Service and Cus-
tomer Assistance”, page 37).
Working Advice
General Sawing Instructions
f
For all cuts, it must first be ensured that the saw blade
at no time can come in contact with the fence, screw
clamps or other machine parts. Remove possibly
mounted auxiliary stops or adjust them accordingly.
Protect the saw blade against impact and shock. Do not sub-
ject the saw blade to lateral pressure.
Do not saw warped/bent workpieces. The workpiece must al-
ways have a straight edge to face against the fence.
Long workpieces must be underlaid or supported at their free
end.
Marking the Cutting Line (see figure N)
A laser beam indicates the cutting line of the saw blade. This
allows for exact positioning of the workpiece for sawing, with-
out having to open the retracting blade guard.
– For this, switch the laser beam on with the switch
31
.
– Align the cutting mark on your workpiece with reference to
the right-hand edge of the laser line.
Note:
Before sawing, check if the cutting line is still indicated
correctly (see “Adjusting the Laser”, page 35). The laser
beam, as an example, can misadjust due to vibrations after in-
tensive use.
Position of the Operator (see figure O)
f
Do not stand in a line with the saw blade in front of the
machine. Always stand aside of the saw blade.
This pro-
tects your body against possible kickback.
– Keep hands, fingers and arms away from the rotating saw
blade.
– Do not cross your arms when operating the tool arm.
