Fine Steel, aluminium, plastic
Very fine Wood (curves)
Remove the guard from the machine to change
the saw blade.
Always saw with guard.
Fitting a saw blade
Fig. 2
The machine is equipped with a quick blade
exchange system.
• Turn the clamping ring (13) of the saw blade
holder (5) completely to the left, in order to
open up the holder.
• Insert the saw blade (15) in the saw blade
holder (5) as far as possible. The teeth of
the saw blade (15) must point upward and
forward. The smooth side of the saw blade
must engage in the slot of the guide roller (6).
• Release the clamping ring (13) to close the
holder.
• Make sure when changing the saw blade that
the blade holder (5) is free of material debris
(such as splinters of wood or metal).
• Before use, always check that the saw blade is
securely fixed.
Removing the saw blade
• Turn the clamping ring (13) of the saw blade
holder (5) completely to the left, in order to
open up the holder.
• Remove the saw blade from its holder.
• Release the clamping ring (13) to close the
holder.
4. USE
Switching on and off
Fig. 3
• To switch on the machine, press the on/off
switch (1).
• To switch the machine to continuous mode,
keep the on/off switch (1) pressed and
simultaneously press the lock-on button (2).
• To switch off continuous mode, press the on/
off switch (1) again.
• To switch off the machine, release the on/off

Setting the speed
Fig. 3
The speed adjustment wheel (3) is used for setting
the speed. The ideal speed depends on the profile
and the teeth of the saw blade and on the material
to be worked.
Do not set the speed during use.
• Turn the speed adjustment wheel (3) to the
required position.
- For hard materials, use a saw blade with
fine teeth and select a lower speed.
- For soft materials, use a saw blade with
coarse teeth and select a higher speed.
Setting the mitre angle
Fig. 4
The mitre angle is variable between 0° and 45°.
The mitre angle can be read from the scale.
Do not set the mitre angle during use.
• Slacken the Hex screws(14) using the Hex key(8).
• Tilt the Base plate (7) to the required position.
• Tighten the Hex screws(14) using the Hex key(8).

Fig. 5
• Insert the dust extraction adapter (11) into the
dust extraction connection (10).
• Connect the hose of a vacuum cleaner to the
dust extraction adapter (11).
Hints for optimum use
• Clamp the workpiece. Use a clamping device
for small workpieces.
• Draw a line to define the direction in which to
guide the saw blade.
• Firmly hold the machine by the grip.
• Set the sawing speed.
• Set the mitre angle.
• Switch on the machine.
