operation, this indicates an overload. Relieve the

machine of the load.

7.3 Working directions

Lay out the mains cable so that the saw cut can be

executed without hindrance.

KS 66, KSE 68 Plus: To do this the mains cable can

be held by the cable guide (3).

The arrow (20) on the guide plate is an aid for

applying the saw to the workpiece and during

sawing. At maximum cut depth it marks roughly the

outer diameter of the saw disc, i.e. the cutting edge.

Do not turn the machine on or off while the saw

disc is touching the workpiece.

Let the saw blade reach its full speed before

making a cut.

When the hand-held circular saw is added, the

movable safety guard is swung backwards by the

workpiece.

KSE 68 Plus: To facilitate application to the

workpiece, the movable safety guard can be

swivelled back manually with the lever (10).

While sawing, do not take the machine out of

the material if the saw disc is still rotating.

Instead, let the saw disc come to a standstill first.

If the saw disc blocks, turn the machine off

immediately.

How to saw following a straight marking: this is

what the cut indicator (7) is for. The width of the cut

indicator represents roughly the width of the saw

disc.

The cut indicator (7) is adjustable. To do so, make a

trial cut. Undo the locking screw on the cut indicator.

Set the cut indicator to suit the saw cut. Retighten

the locking screw.

How to saw following a small rail attached to

the workpiece: In order to achieve an exact cutting

edge, you can attach a rail to the workpiece and

then guide the hand-held circular saw by means of

the guide plate (4) along this rail.

Sawing with a parallel guide:

For cuts parallel to a straight edge.

KS 66, KS Partner Edition: The parallel stop (9) can

be inserted from the right into its holding fixture.

Read off the cut width on the right of the cut

indicator (7). Tighten the locking screw (8). It is best

to calculate the exact cut width by making a test cut.

KSE 68 Plus: The double-guided parallel stop (9)

can be inserted into its holding fixture from both

sides. When inserting it, make sure that it is

parallel with the saw disc. Read the cut width

from the right or left of the cutting display (7).

Tighten the locking screws (8). It is best to calculate

the exact cut width by making a test cut.

7.4 Sawing with guide rail 6.31213

For straight and splinter-free cutting edges accurate

to the millimetre. The anti-slip coating keeps the

surface safe and protects the workpiece against

scratches. The machine can be placed against the

stops on the guide rail for plunge cutting and cuts

can be executed with a uniform length.

Adapter parts 6.31020 must be attached prior to

use. See Accessories section.

Clean the machine regularly. This includes vacuum

cleaning the ventilation louvres on the motor.

Changing saw discs

Pull the plug out of the plug socket before any

adjustments or servicing are performed.

Press in the spindle locking button (18) and hold in

place. Turn the saw spindle slowly with the spanner

in the saw disc fixing screw (24) until the lock

catches.

Remove the saw disc locking screw (24) by turning

it in counter-clockwise direction.

Take off the outer saw disc flange (23). Pull back the

movable safety guard (26) and remove the saw disc

(22).

The contact areas between the inner saw disc

flange (21), the saw disc (22), the outer saw disc

flange (23) and the saw disc fixing screw (24) must

be clean.

For correct operation of the safety clutch,

the contact surface of the saw blade fixing

screw (24) that contacts the saw blade must be

coated with a thin film of grease. Regrease with

a multi-purpose grease (DIN 51825 - ME /

HC 3/4 K -30).

Insert a new saw disc, making sure the direction of

rotation is correct. The direction of rotation is

indicated by arrows on the saw disc and safety

guard.

Put on the outer saw disc flange (23). Tighten the

saw disc fixing screw (24).

Only use sharp, undamaged saw discs.

Do not use saw discs that are cracked

or that have changed their shape.

Do not use any saw discs which have a thicker

base body or a smaller width cut than the

splitting wedge.

Do not use any saw discs made from high-

alloy high-speed steel (HSS).

Do not use any saw discs which do not

conform to the specified rating.

The saw disc must be suitable for the no-load

speed.

Use a saw blade that is suitable for the

material being sawn.

Use only genuine Metabo accessories.

Use only accessories that fulfil the requirements

and specifications listed in these operating instruc-

tions.
