Insert the dust/chip box 25 firmly into the chip ejector 16.

ciency.

tor 16. Press the slider 26 upward, turn the dust/chip box 25

chip box 25.
Operation
Operating Modes
f Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains
plug.
Adjusting the Cutting Depth (see figure F)
f Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the work-
piece. Less than a full tooth of the blade teeth should be
visible below the workpiece.
Loosen the clamping lever 27. For a smaller cutting depth,
pull the saw away from the base plate 12; for a larger cutting
depth, push the saw toward the base plate 12. Adjust the de-
sired cutting depth at the cutting-depth scale. Tighten the
clamping lever 27 again.
Adjusting the Cutting Angle
Loosen the wing bolts 7 and 14. Tilt the saw sidewards. Ad-
just the desired measure on the scale 5. Tighten the wing
bolts 7 and 14 again.
Note: For bevel cuts, the cutting depth is smaller than the set-
ting indicated on the cutting-depth scale 28.
Cutting Marks (see figure G)
(PKS 55 A/PKS 66 A/PKS 66 AF)
The “CutControl” 9 viewing window, which folds out to the
front, is used for precise guiding of the circular saw alongside
the cutting line on the workpiece. The “CutControl” 9 viewing
window has a mark each for right-angled cuts and for 45°
cuts.
The 0° cutting mark (30) indicates the position of the saw
blade for right-angled cuts. The 45° cutting mark (29) indi-
cates the position of the saw blade for 45° cuts.
For precise cuts, position the circular saw against the work-
piece as shown in the figure. It is best to carry out a trial cut.

piece 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 pow-
er 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 button for the
On/Off switch 1 and then press the On/Off switch 2 and keep
it pressed.
To switch off the machine, release the On/Off switch 2.
Note: For safety reasons, the On/Off switch 2 cannot be
locked; it must remain pressed during the entire operation.
When not using the power tool, switch it off in order to save
energy.
Working Advice
Protect saw blades against impact and shock.
Guide the machine evenly and with light feed in the cutting di-
rection. Excessive feed significantly 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. There-
fore, 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 extraction.
