6. Operation

Warning!
Always remove the battery pack before making
adjustments to the equipment.
6.1 Working with the hand-held circular saw
•
Always hold the tool firmly by the handles
provided (1 and 10) to ensure that you handle
it safely when using it.
•
The swing guard hood (20) is pushed back
automatically by the workpiece.
•
Do not use force!
•
Push forwards gently and evenly with the
circular saw.
•
The waste piece should be on the right-hand
side of the circular saw so that the wide
section of the support bench supports its full
area.
•
If you are sawing down a line that has been
drawn, guide the circular saw along the corre-
sponding notch.
•
Clamp small pieces of wood securely before
sawing them. Never hold them with your
hand.
•
Always follow the safety instructions. Wear
safety goggles.
•
Do not use defective saw blades or blades
that are cracked or broken.
•
Do not use any flanges / flange nuts whose
bore hole is larger or smaller than those in the
saw blade.
•
The saw blade must not be decelerated by
hand or by applying lateral pressure to the
blade.
•
Check that the swing guard hood works pro-
perly. The swing guard hood must not jam,
and it must return to its initial position when
you have completed the cut.
•
Before you use the circular saw, check the
function of the swing guard hood with the
mains plug disconnected.
•
Before you use the machine, ensure that the
safety equipment such as the swing guard
hood, flanges and adjustment devices are in
working order and are correctly adjusted and
secure.
•
You can connect a suitable dust extraction
GB
system to the sawdust extraction connector
(14). Ensure that the dust extractor line is sa-
fely and correctly connected.
•
The moving swing guard hood must not be
fixed in the retracted guard hood when the
saw is in use.
6.2 Using the circular saw
•
Adjust the cutting depth, cutting angle and
parallel stop (see section 5.1, 5.2 and 5.4)
•
Do not switch on the circular saw until you
have fitted a saw blade.
•
Place the saw foot flat on the workpiece you
wish to saw. The saw blade must not be in
contact with the workpiece.
•
Hold the circular saw firmly with both hands.
6.3 Switching ON/OFF (Fig. 12)
To switch on:
Press the locking button (3) and the ON/OFF
switch (2) at the same time
•
Allow the saw blade to accelerate until it
reaches full speed. Then slowly move the saw
blade along the cutting line. Only exert gentle
pressure on the saw blade as you do so.
To switch off :
Release the locking button and ON/OFF switch
•
If you release the handle the equipment will
shut down automatically which means that it
cannot operate accidentally.
•
Ensure that you do not cover or block the ven-
tilation openings whilst working with the tool.
•
Do not slow down the saw blade after you
switch it off by pressing it sideways.
•
Important! Do not put down the machine until
the saw blade has reached a complete stand-
still.
Important. Carry out a trial cut in a piece of
waste wood
6.4 Changing the saw blade (Fig. 13-18)
Warning!
Always remove the battery pack before making
adjustments to the equipment.
Use only saw blades which comply with standard
EN 847-1 and are of the same type as the saw
blade supplied with this circular saw. Ask your
dealer for advice.
