Working Advice

General Sawing Instructions
¢ For all cuts, it must first be ensured that the
saw blade at no time can come in contact
with the fence, screw clamps or other ma-
chine parts. Remove possibly mounted aux-
iliary stops or adjust them accordingly.
Protect the saw blade against impact and shock.
Do not subject the saw blade to lateral pressure.
Do not saw warped/bent workpieces. The work-
piece must always have a straight edge to face
against the fence.
Long workpieces must be underlaid or support-
ed at their free end.
Marking the Cutting Line
(see figure J)
A laser beam indicates the cutting line of the
saw blade. This allows for exact positioning of
the workpiece for sawing, without having to
open the retracting blade guard.
– For this, switch the laser beam on with the
switch 20.
– Align the cutting mark on your workpiece
with reference to the right-hand edge of the
laser line.
Hand Positioning
(see figure K)
Keep hands, fingers and arms away from the ro-
tating saw blade.
Do not cross your arms when operating the tool
arm.
