Sawing laminates
When cutting laminates splintering may occur
which can damage the presentation surface. The
most common saw blades cut on the upward
stroke, therefore if the shoe plate is sitting on the
presentation surface either use a saw blade that
cuts on the downward stroke or:

Pull the shoe plate (4) forward, rotate to the
centre and push it back into the 0° location.
Push the blade support roller (5) forward until it
touches the saw blade (7).
Tighten the screws (8).

aluminium and PVC and low speed for metals
other than aluminium.
To switch the tool on, press the on/off switch
(1).
To switch the tool off, release the on/off switch
(1).
For continuous operation, press the lock-on

Hold the tool fi rmly with both hands while
cutting.
The shoe should be held fi rmly against the
material being cut. This will help prevent
the saw from jumping, reduce vibration and
minimise blade breakage.
Let the blade run freely for a few seconds
before starting the cut.
Apply only a gentle pressure to the tool while
performing the cut.
Use a fi ne-tooth saw blade.
Saw from the back surface of the workpiece.
Clamp a piece of scrap wood or hardboard
to both sides of the workpiece to minimise
splintering, and saw through this sandwich.
Be aware that sawing metal takes much more
time than sawing wood.
Use a saw blade suitable for sawing metal.
