Mounting (see figure
Clean the saw blade and all the clamping parts to
be assembled.
Tilt back the retracting blade guard 14 and hold
firmly.
Place the saw blade onto the mounting flange 21.
Assemble clamping
flange 22.
Tighten the clamping bolt 23 with the Allen key 7.
Tightening torque: 6 – 9 Nm; equivalent to hand-
1
tight plus / turn.

Take care that the mounting positions of
the mounting flange 21 and clamping
flange 22 are correct.
When mounting: Ensure that the cutting direction
of the teeth (direction of arrow on saw blade) and
the direction-of-rotation arrow on the blade guard
match.
Dust/Chip Extraction
The dust that is produced while working can
be detrimental to health, inflammable or ex-
plosive. Suitable safety measures are re-
quired.
Examples: Some dusts are regarded as carci-
nogenic. Use suitable dust /chip extraction
and wear a dust respirator.
Integrated Dust Extraction
(Accessory)
For clean working, a dust bag 31 (accessory) can
be used. Insert the dust-bag sleeve into the saw
dust ejector 19. Empty the dust bag in time to en-
sure optimum dust collection.
External Dust Extraction (Accessory)
The vacuum cleaner must be suitable for the ma-
terial to be worked.
When vacuuming dry dust that is especially detri-
mental to health or carcinogenic, use a special
vacuum cleaner.
For external dust extraction with a vacuum
cleaner, a suction adapter must be used as re-
quired (see accessories). Insert extraction
adapter and vacuum-hose neck firmly.

Operating Instructions
The machine may not be clamped to a saw
table.
Excessive feed significantly reduces the
performance capability of the machine and
reduces the service life of the saw blade.
Sawing performance and cutting quality depend
essentially on the condition and the tooth form of
the saw blade. Therefore, use only sharp saw
blades that are suited for the material to be
worked.
Wood
The correct selection of the saw blade depends
on the type and quality of the wood and whether
lengthway or crossway cuts are required.
When cutting spruce lengthways, long spi-
ral chips are formed.
Beech and oak dusts are especially detrimental
to health. Therefore, work only with dust extrac-
tion.
Tips
Parallel Guide (see figure
The parallel guide 13 enables exact cuts along a
work piece edge and cutting strips of the same di-
mension.
Sawing with an Auxiliary Guide
(see figure
For cutting large work-pieces or straight edges:
Clamp a board or strip tightly to the work-piece as
an auxiliary guide using screw clamps. Guide the
base plate along the auxiliary guide.
Guide Rail (Accessory)
(see figure
The guide rail 29 enables particularly exact cut-
ting, both vertically and mitred to 45°.
The adhesive coating prevents the guide rail from
slipping and protects the surface of the work
piece. The hard anodised coating of the guide rail
allows the circular saw to glide easily.
The rubber lip on the guide rail serves as a splin-
ter guard, which avoids fraying of the surface
when sawing wooden materials. For this, the
teeth of the saw blade must lie directly against the
rubber lip.
