The clamping force of the clamping handle must hold the
glide arm securely in place at any bevel angle.
Setting the Standard 22.5° Bevel Angle (see figure K)
Pull the adjustment knob (29) all the way out and turn it 90°.
Then use the handle (3) to swivel the glide arm (23) until
you hear the glide arm engage.
Start-up
Products that are only sold in AUS and NZ: Use a resid-
u
ual current device (RCD) with a nominal residual current
of 30 mA or less.
Switching on (see figure L)
– To switch on the power tool, first slide the lock-off
button (4) to the middle and then press and hold the on/
off switch (52).
Note: For safety reasons, the on/off switch (52) cannot be
locked; it must remain pressed during the entire operation.
Switching off
– To switch off, release the on/off switch (52).
Starting current limitation
The electronic starting current limitation feature restricts the
power of the power tool when it is switched on and enables
operation using a 16 A fuse.
Note: If the power tool runs at full speed immediately after
being switched on, this means that the starting current limit-
ation has failed. The power tool must be sent to the after-
sales service without delay. For addresses, see: After-sales
service and advice on using products.
Practical advice
General sawing instructions
Always tighten the locking knob (11) and the clamp-
u
ing handle (13) firmly before sawing. Otherwise the
saw blade can become wedged in the workpiece.
Always tighten the locking knob (11) and the clamp-
u
ing lever firmly before sawing. Otherwise the saw
blade can become wedged in the workpiece.
For all cuts, it must first be ensured that the saw blade
u
at no time can come in contact with the fence, screw
clamps or other machine parts. Remove any mounted
auxiliary stops or adjust them accordingly.
Protect the saw blade against impact and shock. Do not sub-
ject the saw blade to lateral pressure.
Only saw materials which are permitted within the scope of
the intended use.
Do not saw warped/bent workpieces. The workpiece must
always have a straight edge to face against the fence.
The free end of long and heavy workpieces must have some-
thing placed underneath it or be supported.
Make sure that the retracting blade guard operates properly
and that it can move freely. The retracting blade guard must
open when the tool arm is guided downwards. When the tool
arm is guided upwards, the retracting blade guard must
close again over the saw blade and lock in the uppermost po-
sition of the tool arm.

Position of the operator (see figure M)
Do not stand in line with the saw blade in front of the
u
power tool. Always stand to the side of the saw blade.
This protects your body against possible kickback.
– Keep hands, fingers and arms away from the rotating saw
blade.
– Do not reach one hand across the other when in front of
the tool arm.
Replacing the Insert Plates (see figure P)
The red insert plates (9) can become worn after prolonged
use of the power tool.
Replace defective insert plates.
– Bring the power tool into the work position.
– Loosen the screws (53) using the hex key (4 mm) (30)
and remove the old insert plates.
– Insert the new right-hand insert plate.
– Screw the insert plate as far as possible to the right with
the screws (53) so that the saw blade does not come into
contact with the insert plate over the entire length of the
possible slide motion.
– Repeat the work steps in the same manner for the left-
hand insert plate.
Permissible workpiece dimensions
Maximum workpiece dimensions:
Mitre angle Bevel angle
0° 0°
45° 0°
0° 45° (left)
0° 45° (right)
45° 45° (left)

Minimum workpiece dimensions (= all workpieces that can
be secured left or right of the saw blade using the supplied
screw clamps (19)): 145 x 306 mm (length x width)
Maximum cutting depth (0°/0°): 100 mm
Sawing
Sawing without slide movement (cutting off) (see
figure N)
– Slide the glide arm (23) all the way back and secure it in
this position.
Make sure that the depth stop (25) is pressed all the way
in and that the adjusting screw (24) fits through the re-
cess without touching the depth stop when moving the
glide arm.
– Firmly clamp the workpiece as appropriate for its dimen-
sions.
– Set the required mitre and/or bevel angle as necessary.
– Switch on the power tool.
– Slowly guide the glide arm (23) downwards using the
handle (3).
