Always disconnect the plug from the socket before carrying out any work on the
machine.

Slide the transparent cover downwards,
then the clamping screw is more
accessible.

Loosen the clamping screw about 2
revolutions by means of the hexagonal
allen key (fitted into the base plate).

Fit the saw blade into the groove of the support roller
and push it firmly into the plunger as far as it will go;
the lug of the saw blade must contact the end of the
plunger (see illustration).

Retighten the clamping screw.

Check that the saw blade is sitting firmly (wear
protective gloves!).

The base plate can be tilted or moved
backward or forward.

Setting an angle 

 For angle cuts and

bevels. 
Loosen the fixing screw, pull the base
plate out of the mounting, set it at the
required angle (15

o

, 30

o

, 45

o

), push it

back into the mounting and tighten the
fixing screw again. Angles other than 45

o

can be set by not pushing the base plate
back into the mounting. 
The angle can be read off the scale.
For very exact angle cuts it is
recommended to make a test cut.

Moving the base plate 

 For plunge cuts or cuts in corners. 

Loosen the fixing screw, push the base plate to the rear and tighten the fixing
screw again. The base plate in this position is fixed at the 0

o

 setting.

Moving back 

 For cutting a hole with a short saw blade and sawing near the

edge. 
Take the fixing screw out, push the base plate to the rear and screw the fixing
screw tightly into the rear hole. 
In this position the base plate can also be off-set in longitudinal direction.

Only operate the machine with suitable
sawdust removal.

The integrated suction channel has the
standardized internal diameter of 30 mm.
Use the suction hose (Id. No.

accessories to connect it to a household
vacuum cleaner or to an wet-and-dry
vacuum cleaner.
