Operation
This power tool is supplied from single-phase al-
ternating current mains only. It is double insulat-
ed according to EN 60745-1 and IEC 60745 and
can be connected to grounded or not grounded
sockets. This power tool is radio suppressed in
compliance with EMC Directive.
This power tool is designed for longitudinal and
cross sawing wood in a straight line at bevel an-
gle from 0° to 45°.
PRIOR TO INITIAL OPERATION
▪ Make sure the power supply voltage corre
-
sponds to the value indicated on the name
plate with technical data of the tool.
▪ Always check the position of ON/OFF switch.
The power tool must be connected to the
power supply socket only when this switch is
in OFF position. If the plug is connected to
a receptacle while the power switch is in the
ON position, the power tool will start operat-
ing immediately, which could cause a serious
accident.
▪ Make sure that the cord and the plug are in
order. If the replacement of the supply cord is
necessary, this has to be done by the manu-
facturer or his agent in order to avoid a safety
hazard.
▪ Always inspect the blade. Use only well grind
-
ed blades. Never use blades with cracks and
indents or HSS-blades.
▪ The riving knife must not touch the blade.
▪ Check if the mobile guard moves freely.
▪ Make sure the work piece or the material is
well secured.
WARNING:
Always switch off and un-
plug the power tool prior to any adjustment,
servicing or maintenance or in case of mains
drop-out.

DUST EXTRACTION
Use a vacuum cleaner during operation. Con-
nect the vacuum cleaner to the dust extraction
port and switch on the vacuum cleaner prior to
starting a cut.
MOUNTING AND REPLACING THE
BLADE
WARNING:
Draw the plug out of
mains socket!
The blade is covered by mobile guard 10 at rest
and during work. Turn the guard over and hold in
this position. Unscrew by Allen key screw 6, while
detaining clamping washer 8 by a spanner or by
placing the blade upon wood. Dismount washer
8 and blade. Mounting the blade is achieved in
reverse order. The supporting surfaces of thrust
washer 5, blade and clamping washer 8 must
be clean. The directions of arrows on the blade
and the immobile guard must correspond.
After replacing the blade and prior to work let
the machine operate at no-load for 30 seconds.
Vibrating blades must be replaced.
ADjUSTING THE SLOTTING KNIfE
Slotting knife 9 prevents jamming the blade. It
should be adjusted so that the distance to top
of teeth and cutting depth must not exceed
5 mm (see the drawing). Tighten the slotting
knife by Allen-head screw 11 on the rear of the
immobile guard.
