Note: For bevel cuts, the cutting depth is small-

er than the setting indicated on the cutting-

depth scale 15.

Cutting Marks

The 0° cutting mark (9) indicates the position of

the saw blade for right-angled cuts. The 45° cut-

ting mark (8) indicates the position of the saw

blade for 45° cuts.

For precise cuts, position the circular saw

against the workpiece as shown in the figure. It

is best to carry out a trial cut.

Starting Operation

f Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage

of the power source must agree with the

voltage specified on the nameplate of the

machine. Power tools marked with 230 V

can also be operated with 220 V.

Switching On and Off

To start the machine, first push the lock-off but-

ton for the On/Off switch 2 and then press the

On/Off switch 1 and keep it pressed.

To switch off the machine, release the On/Off

switch 1.

Note: For safety reasons, the On/Off switch 1

cannot be locked; it must remain pressed during

the entire operation.

Working Advice

Protect saw blades against impact and shock.

Guide the machine evenly and with light feed in

the cutting direction. Excessive feed significant-

ly reduces the service life of the saw blade and

can cause damage to the power tool.

Sawing performance and cutting quality depend

essentially on the condition and the tooth form

of the saw blade. Therefore, use only sharp saw

blades that are suited for the material to be

worked.

Sawing Wood

The correct selection of the saw blade depends

on the type and quality of the wood and whether

lengthway or crossway cuts are required.

When cutting spruce lengthways, long spiral

chips are formed.

Beech and oak dusts are especially detrimental

to health. Therefore, work only with dust extrac-

tion.

Sawing with Parallel Guide (see figure D)

The parallel guide 10 enables exact cuts along a

workpiece edge and cutting strips of the same

dimension.

Loosen wing bolt 7 and slide the scale of the

parallel guide 10 through the guide in the base

plate 13. Adjust the desired cutting width as the

scale setting at the respective cutting mark 9 or

8; see Section “Cutting Marks”. Tighten wing

bolt 7 again.

Sawing with Auxiliary Guide (see figure E)

For sawing large workpieces or straight edges, a

board or strip can clamped to the workpiece as

an auxiliary guide; the base plate of the circular

saw can be guided alongside the auxiliary guide.

Sawing with Guide Rail (see figure G)

The guide rail 27 is used to carry out straight

cuts.

The adhesive coating prevents the guide rail

from slipping and protects the surface of the

workpiece. The coating of the guide rail allows

the circular saw to glide easily.

The rubber lip on the guide rail acts as a splinter

guard that prevents fraying or tearing out of the

surface when sawing wooden materials. For

this, the teeth of the saw blade must face direct-

ly against the rubber lip.

The guide rail 27 must not extend beyond the

face side of the workpiece where the cut is to

be started.
