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 ma-
chine parts. Remove possibly mounted aux-
iliary stops or adjust them accordingly.
f
Wenn slotting, ensure that the saw blade
doesn’t get jammed in the workpiece.
Protect the saw blade against impact and shock.
Do not subject the saw blade to lateral pressure.
Do not saw warped/bent workpieces. The work-
piece must always have a straight edge to face
against the fence.
Marking the Cutting Line (see figure K)
A laser beam indicates the cutting line of the
saw blade. This allows for exact positioning of
the workpiece for sawing, without having to
open the retracting blade guard.
– For this, switch the laser beam on with the
switch
34
.
– Align the cutting mark on your workpiece
with reference to the right-hand edge of the
laser line.
Position of the Operator (see figure L)
f
Do not stand in a line with the saw blade in
front of the machine. Always stand aside of
the saw blade.
This protects 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.

Cutting Off
– Firmly clamp the workpiece as appropriate
for its dimensions.
– Adjust the requested horizontal and/or verti-
cal mitre/bevel angle.
– Switch on the machine.
– Push the locking lever

and guide the tool
arm slowly downward with the tool handle

.
– Saw through the workpiece applying uniform
feed.
– Switch off the machine and wait until the
saw blade has come to a complete stop.
– Guide the tool arm slowly upward.
Special Workpieces
When sawing curved or round workpieces,
these must be especially secured against slip-
ping. At the cutting line, no gap may exist be-
tween workpiece, fence and saw table.
Provide for special fixtures, if required.
