material is on inner or outer side of blade 6b
! cutting width is determined by width of blade
teeth and not by width of blade body
! always make trial cuts first to verify actual line of
cut
Dust suction
- connect vacuum cleaner to extension R 7
! never let the vacuum cleaner hose interfere with
the lower guard or the cutting operation
- one may also use a dust bag (SKIL accessory

APPLICATION ADVICE
When using guide-rail (SKIL accessory 2610Z04064) in
combination with adapter, the depth of cut will be
reduced with 14 mm for 90° as well as 45° cuts
Always face the good side of the workpiece down to
ensure minimum splintering
Only use sharp saw blades of the correct type 8
- quality of cut improves by the number of teeth
- carbide tipped blades stay sharp up to 30 times longer
than ordinary blades
Parallel guide Y 9
- for making exact cuts along a workpiece edge
- can be inserted in either side of foot
Adjusting parallel guide
- loosen knob Z
- adjust to desired cutting width by using parallel guide
scale (use saw line visor Q as 0-reference)
- tighten knob Z
Plunge cutting 0
- set desired cutting depth
- tilt tool forward with saw line visor Q lined up with
desired line of cut marked on the workpiece
- open lower guard F with lever G
- just before blade enters workpiece, switch on tool and
gradually lower back end of tool using front end of foot
as hinge-point
- gradually move tool downward as well as forward
- as soon as blade enters the material, release lever G
! never pull tool backwards
Cutting large panels !
- support panel close to the cut either on oor, table or
workbench
! set cutting depth so that you cut through panel
and not through support
- in case parallel guide does not allow desired width of
cut, clamp or nail straight piece of wood to workpiece
as a guide, and use the right side of the foot against
this guide
