not use a spray, steam pressure cleaning equipment or
running water for cleaning. This may negatively affect
the electrical safety of the power tool.
Maintenance
Regularly check all external parts of the tool for damage
and check that all controls operate faultessly. Don’t oper-
ate the tool when parts are damaged or when the con-
trols do not function faultessly. Have your tool repaired
by a Hilti service center.
Repairs to the electrical selections of the tool may be
carried out only by trained electrical specialists.
10. Accessories
Guides
Sawing using the parallel guide
G
The parallel guide (accessory) is used to make precise
cuts along the edge of the workpiece, thus making it pos-
sible to cut strips of even width. In addition, it can be
used as an extension to the saw baseplate.
Fitting the parallel guide
G
When fitting the parallel guide, better access can be
achieved by releasing the cutting depth locking lever and
raising the tool as far as it will go. The locking lever should
then be re-engaged to lock the tool at its maximum height.
G
Insert the hex. screws through the holes in the base-
plate from the contact surface side so that the threaded
sections of the screws are visible from above
G
Place the pressure springs and then the clamping
plates on the screws.
G
Screw the hex. nuts onto the screws. Do not tighten
the nuts.
G
Slide the rods of the parallel guide into the guide chan-
nels provided in the baseplate until they are under the
clamping plates.
G
Tighten the hex. nuts by hand until they are free of play.
G
Push the clamping lever onto the hex. nut while press-
ing the tab located on the inside of the lever. This should
be done so that the concave surface of the lever faces to
the right and the hex. nut is thus tightened when the
clamping lever is brought into the closed position.
G
The parallel guide can now be fixed in position by turn-
ing the clamping levers. If a secure hold cannot be obtained
by turning the clamping levers, the clamping levers should
be removed from the nuts, repositioned, and then re-tight-
ened. The clamping levers can be removed by pressing
the tab positioned on the inside of the lever. Replace the
clamping levers as previously described (at the outset posi-
tion or in the middle, depending on the clamping move-
ment necessary) and then tighten the levers securely.
G
The parallel guide can be removed at any time by releas-
ing the clamping levers (the clamping levers and other
clamping parts may remain attached to the tool).
Using the parallel guide
G
Release both clamping levers.
G
Slide the guide to the desired position (dimension)
G
Tighten the clamping levers securely.
The cutting dimension between the circular saw blade
and the parallel guide can be pre-set by making use of
the two notches in the guide rods and the correspond-
ing scale. The parallel guide can be fitted on either side
of the baseplate. When reversed (edge of the guide fac-
ing upwards), the parallel guide serves as an extension
to the baseplate.
Sawing using the guide rail
The guide rail is designed for making precise mitre cuts
at up to 45° and cuts across the surface of the work-
piece at angles of up to 60°. The guide rail must be in
faultless condition in order to ensure good results. The
non-slip strips located on the underside prevent the rail
slipping out of position and also protect the surface of
the workpiece. It is, however, recommended that screw
clamps are used to secure the guide rail. All parts are
manufactured from materials which ensure smooth oper-
ation. The cut is made approx. 1 mm from the edge of
the rail at all angle settings. Use of the guide rail reduces
the set cutting depth by approx. 5 mm. The tool must
be placed on the guide rail so that the rail profile and the
channel in the baseplate of the tool correspond and thus
provide a smooth guide. Two adjustable play compen-
sators are provided on the baseplate of the circular saw.
These can be used to adjust play between the circular
saw and the guide rail, thus ensuring optimum guid-
ance.
Cutting / trimming
G
Use two screw clamps fitted from below to attach the
rail so that the section of the rail for positioning the tool
projects beyond the workpiece.
G
Position the tool on the corresponding section of the
guide rail and ensure that the saw blade is not in contact
with the workpiece.
G
Switch the tool on and slide it evenly towards the work-
piece. The pivoting guard opens when it contacts the
edge of the rail and closes again when the saw is pushed
off the far end of the guide rail.
Cuts at an angle across the surface of the workpiece
G
Position the guide rail with the zero mark at the edge
of the workpiece and pivot the rail until the desired angle
shown on the angle scale is opposite zero.
G
Use two screw clamps to secure the guide rail in this
position and then make the cut as described above. The
cutting angle indicated is the angle of deviation from a
straight, right-angled cut.
Plunge cutting
G
Use two screw clamps to fasten the guide rail to the
workpiece.
