8.10 Replacing the saw blade (Fig. 1/2/14-17)
Pull out the mains plug!
Attention!
Wear protective gloves when changing the saw
blade! Risk of injury!
• Swivel the machine head (4) upwards and lock it with
the locking pin (21).
• Loosen the fixing screw (5a) of the cover with a Phil-
lips screwdriver.
WARNING! Do not unscrew this screw all the way.
• Fold the saw blade guard (5) up sufficiently that the
saw blade guard (5) is above the flange screw (26).
• With one hand, fit the Allen key (C) to the flange
screw (26).
• Hold the Allen key (C) and slowly close the saw
blade guard (5) until it touches the Allen key (C).
• Firmly press the saw shaft lock (28), and slowly turn
the flange screw (26) clockwise. After max. one turn,
the saw shaft lock (28) engages.
• Then undo the flange screw (26), by applying a
slightly greater force in a clockwise direction.
• Fully unscrew the flange screw (26) and remove the
outer flange (27).
• Remove the saw blade (6) from the inner flange (29)
and pull it out downwards.
• Carefully clean the flange screw (26), outer flange
(27) and inner flange (29).
• Insert the new saw blade (6) in the reverse sequence
and tighten.
• Attention! The cutting angle of the teeth, i.e. the di-
rection of rotation of the saw blade (6), must corre-
spond to the direction of the arrow on the housing.
• Before continuing work, check that the safety devic-
es are functioning properly.
• Attention! After each saw blade change, check that
the saw blade (6) runs freely in the table cut-out (9)
in vertical position as well as when tilted to 45°.
• Attention! Changing and aligning the saw blade (6)
must be carried out properly.
8.11 Laser operation (Fig. 18)
• Switching on: Press the laser ON/OFF switch (31)
1x. A laser line is projected onto the workpiece to be
cut, indicating the exact cutting path.
• Switching off: Press the laser ON/OFF switch (31)
again.

8.12 Calibrating the laser (Fig. 19-20)
If the laser (30) is no longer showing the correct cutting
line, it can be readjusted. Loosen the Phillips screws
(30a) and adjust the laser by sliding it sideways such
that the laser beam hits the cutting teeth of the saw
blade (6).

Transport
• Tighten the locking screw (10) to lock the rotary table
(13).
• Push the machine head (4) downwards and lock it
with the locking pin (21). The saw is now locked in
the lower position.
• Use the carrying handle (34) to carry the machine.
• To reassemble the machine, proceed as described
in chapter 7.
10. Maintenance
m Warning! Pull out the mains plug before carrying
out any adjustments, maintenance or repair work!
General maintenance tasks
Wipe swarf and dust off the machine from time to time
with a cloth. Oil the rotating parts once monthly to ex-
tend the life of the tool. Do not oil the motor.
Do not use corrosive agents for cleaning the plastic.
Cleaning the movable saw blade guard safety de-
vice (5)
Check the saw blade guard for dirt before each start-
up.
Remove old shavings and wood splinters using a brush
or similar suitable tool.
Brush inspection
If the machine is new, check the carbon brushes after
the first 50 operating hours or if a new brush has been
mounted. After the initial check, check every 10 oper-
ating hours.
If the carbon is worn down to a length of 6 mm, or the
spring or the shunt wire is burnt or damaged, both
brushes must be replaced. If the brushes are found to
be usable after removal, they can be reinstalled.
To service the carbon brushes, open both locks (as
shown in figure 20) counter-clockwise. Then remove
the carbon brushes.
Re-insert the carbon brushes in reverse order.
