edge corresponds to the left cutting edge of the saw

blade.

Sawing with parallel guide:

For cuts parallel to a straight edge.

The double parallel guide (4) can be inserted from

either side into the support provided for it. Maintain

parallelism to the saw blade when making the

setting. Retighten the front and then the rear

locking screw (6). It is best to calculate the exact cut

width by making a test cut.

For cuts parallel to a straight workpiece edge:

Apply

the parallel stop (4) such that the stop rail is facing

down.

For cuts parallel to a straight edge on the

workpiece: Apply the parallel stop (4) such that the

stop rail is facing up.

Sawing narrow sections, e.g. along a wall:

the machine is designed and shaped so that the

upper guard, for example, can be guided along a

wall. Sawing is thus possible at very narrow

sections near a wall. False joints, for example, can

also be created.

Plunge cuts:

When plunge cutting, always hold the

machine firmly with both hands on the

handles provided Otherwise there is a risk of

back-kicks.

For a safer hold on the machine when

plunge cutting, the rear edge of the guide

plate must be placed against a fixed stop.

Mount the machine therefore on guide rail

6.31213 and against its stop, or secure a stop

rail on the workpiece.

When plunge cutting with a blade inclined

more than 15° from a vertical position,

observe the following:

- For safety reasons, always use guide rail

6.31213.

- Secure the guide rail to the workpiece using 2

clamps 6.31031.

- Hold the machine firmly by the handle with

your right hand while pushing down the guide

plate onto the guide rail with your right hand

so that the machine rests securely on the

guide rail.

- Release the locking screw (20) and move the

motor section to its top position.

- Completely open the movable guard with the lever

(17) so that the machine can be mounted on the

workpiece.

- Preselect the desired depth of cut with the cutting

depth stop (22), see illustration, page 2. To do

this, release the clamping lever (21), set the

cutting depth stop (22) on the scale (23) to the

desired depth of cut and clamp the clamping lever

again.

- Align the saw blade to the scribe mark.

- The rear edge of the guide plate should be

positioned against the stop of the guide rail, or

against the stop rail fitted on the workpiece.

-Switch on machine.

- Hold the machine firmly and push downwards in

one smooth action. The saw blade now cuts into

the workpiece. The plunging depth can be read off

on the scale (23).

7.4 Sawing with guide rail 6.31213

For straight and spinter-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.

For guide rail 6.31213, see

chapter on Accessories.

Depending on the application type and cutting

width, the parallel stop (4) can be inserted from the

right or left into its holder.

Sawing very narrow sections:

Insert the parallel stop (4) from the right into its

holder.

Clean the machine regularly. This includes vacuum

cleaning the ventilation louvres on the motor.

9.1 Changing saw blades

Pull the plug out of the plug socket before any

adjustments or servicing are performed.

- Press in spindle locking button (24) and hold in

place.

- Insert the hexagon spanner in the saw blade fixing

screw (27). Turn the saw shaft slowly with the

hexagon spanner until the lock catches. (The

spindle is now secured against twisting.)

- Unscrew saw blade fixing screw (27) by turning

counterclockwise.

- Release the spindle locking button (24).

- Open guard (3) manually as far as the stop and

hold open.

- Press in spindle locking button (24) and hold in

place.

- Release the guard. (It is now held by the spindle

locking button (24)).

- Release the spindle locking button (24).

- Remove saw blade (26).

- The contact areas between inner saw blade

flange (25), saw blade (26) and saw blade fixing

screw (27) must be free of sawdust.

- Ensure that the inner saw blade flange (25) is

inserted the correct way round (the collar faces

the saw blade).

For correct operation of the safety clutch,

the contact surface of the saw blade fixing

screw (27) 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 blade, making sure the direction

of rotation is correct. The direction of rotation is

indicated by arrows on the saw blade and guard.

- Press in spindle locking button (24) and hold in

place.
