3. Insert new table insert.
4. Tighten the screws at the table insert.
10.3 Adjust parallel guide/ripping fence
1. Loosen Allen screws
.
2. Adjust the parallel guide/ripping fence
such a way that it is exactly perpendicular to
the saw blade when the turntable engages in
the 0° position.
3. Tighten the Allen screws
10.4 Adjust the cutting laser
Align the laser perpendicularly
– Loosen the middle screw
Align laser laterally
Shift the laser horizontally. Tighten the right
10.5 Cleaning the tool
Remove chips and saw dust with vacuum cleaner
or brush from:
– adjustment installations
– controls;
– motor vent slots;
– space under table insert;
– cutting laser;
– illumination of cutting line
10.6 Storage of device
Danger!
Store the device in such a way that it cannot be
put into operation by unauthorised personnel.
Ensure that the stationary device cannot cause
injury.
Caution!
Do not store the tool outdoors or in damp
conditions without protection.
10.7 Maintenance
Prior to each use
Remove saw chips with vacuum or brush.
Check power cable and power cable plug or
battery pack for damage; if necessary have
damaged parts replaced by a qualified
electrician.
Check all movable parts if they can be moved
freely across the entire range of movement.
Regularly, depending on conditions of use
Check all screwed joints, retighten if necessary.
Check reset function of the saw head (saw head
has to return to the upper starting position by
means of spring force), if required have spring
replaced.
Slightly oil guide elements.
– Use appropriate supports on the left and right of
the saw for long workpieces.
– Hold workpiece on the right of the saw blade for
suitable cuts.
– When cutting small pieces, use additional guide
(a suitable wooden board attached with screws
to the guide of the device, can be used as
additional guide).
– When cutting a curved (contorted) board
place the convex side at the parallel guide/
ripping fence.
– Do not cut workpiece upright, but flat on the
turntable.
Use only genuine Metabo accessories.
Use only accessories which fulfil the requirements
and specifications listed in these operating
instructions.
