Cut Control for Bevel Cuts (PST 1000 PEL)
For cutting-line control of bevel cuts, the “Cut 
Control” viewing window 12 has a mark 29 for 0° 
right-angle cuts and two marks each for the left- or 
rightward sloping 45 bevel cut according to scale 
25. For attachment of the cutting-line control with 
the “Cut Control” base 13 to the base plate 7, the 
inside mark 30 applies. For attachment of the “Cut 
Control” viewing window 12 directly to the sliding 
shoe 11, the outer mark 31 applies.
The cutting mark for bevel cuts between 0° and 
45° results proportionally. It can additionally be 
drawn on the “Cut Control” viewing window 12 
with a non-permanent marker, and easily be re-
moved again.
For accurate working, it is best to carry out a 
test cut.
Offsetting the Base Plate
For sawing close to edges, the base plate 7 can 
be offset to the rear.
PST 900 PEL (see figure G):
– Pull the saw blade storage 21 out of the base 
plate 7.
– Loosen the screw 24 and slide the base plate 
7 toward the vacuum connection 5 to the stop.
– Tighten the screw 24 again.
PST 1000 PEL (see figure H):
– Release the base plate clamping lever 6 and 
push the base plate 7 to the stop in the direc-
tion of the vacuum connection 5.
– Close the base plate clamping lever 6 to lock 
the base plate in the adjusted position.
Sawing with the base plate 7 offset is possible 
only at a 0° bevel angle. Additionally, “Cut Con-
trol” may not be used together with the base 13
the parallel guide with circle cutter 26 (accesso-
ry), as well as the splinter guard 22.
Sawdust Blower Device
With the air jet of the sawdust blower device 9
the cutting line can be kept free of dust and 
chips.
Starting Operation
f
Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage 
of the power 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 the LED Work Area Illumination
The worklight 14 improves the visual conditions 
in the direct working range. Particularly good 
cutting results can be achieved by using the 
worklight together with “Cut Control”.
The worklight 14 is switched on by lightly press-
ing the On/Off switch 3. Pressing the On/Off 
switch further starts the machine, while the 
worklight continues to be lit.
f
Do not look directly into the work area illu-
mination – your sight can be temporarily de-
graded!
Switching On and Off
To start the machine, press the On/Off switch 3.
To lock the On/Off switch 3, keep it depressed 
and push the lock-on button 1 to the right or 
left.
To switch off the machine, release the On/Off 
switch 3. When the On/Off switch 3 is locked, 
press it first and then release it.
