Starting Opeation of the Laser Module
(PST 670 L/PST 700 PEL)
Do not point the laser beam at persons or
animals and do not look into the laser beam
yourself, not even from a large distance.
To switch the laser on, press the top of switch
13 ("on").
To switch the laser off, press the bottom of
switch 13 ("off").
Immediately switch the laser off again each
time after using. When handling the laser
module (separately or when mounted), one
can be blinded by the laser beam.
The laser module must be removed from the
power tool when used for stationary work
or when sawing from below a workpiece.
One can easily be blinded from the laser
beam when carrying out such work.
The laser switches off automatically after an
operating period of approx. 10 minutes.

Working Advice

When working small or thin work pieces,
always use a sturdy support or a saw table
(accessory).
Laser Module (PST 670 L/PST 700 PEL)
Assembling the laser module 14 to the machine
is recommended when sawing alongside an al-
ready marked cutting line. Attach the laser mod-
ule onto the machine (see "Attaching/Removing
the Laser Module") and follow the marked cut-
ting line with the laser line while sawing.
When sawing under unfavourable conditions
(e.g. intense sun irradiation), the visibility of the
laser line can be improved when using the laser
viewing glasses 20 (accessory).
Do not use the laser viewing glasses as safe-
ty goggles. The laser viewing glasses are
used for improved visualisation of the laser
beam, but they do not protect against laser
radiation.
Do not use the laser viewing glasses as sun
glasses or in traffic. The laser viewing glass-
es do not afford complete UV protection and
reduce colour perception.

Plunge Cutting (see figures G – H)
Plunge cuts may only be applied to soft
materials, such as wood, gypsum plaster
boards, etc.!
Use only short saw blades for plunge cutting.
Plunge cutting is possible only with the mitre
angle set at 0°.
Place the machine with the front edge of the
base plate 5 on to the workpiece without the
saw blade 10 touching the workpiece and
switch on. For machines with stroke rate con-
trol, select the maximum stroke rate. Firmly
hold the machine against the workpiece and by
tilting the machine, slowly plunge the saw blade
into the workpiece.
When the base plate 5 fully lays on the work-
piece, continue sawing along the desired cutting
line.
Parallel Guide with Circle Cutter (Accessory)
For cuts using the parallel guide with circle cut-
ter 28 (accessory), the thickness of the material
must not exceed a maximum of 30 mm.
Parallel Cuts (see figure I): Loosen the locking
screw 27 and slide the scale of the parallel guide
through the lead 26 in the base plate. Set the
desired cutting width as the scale value on the
inside edge of the base plate. Tighten the lock-
ing screw 27.
Circular Cuts (see figure J): Set the locking
screw 27 to the other side of the parallel guide.
Slide the scale of the parallel guide through the
lead 26 in the base plate. Drill a hole in the work-
piece centred in the section to be sawn. Insert
the centring tip 29 through the inside opening of
the parallel guide and into the drilled hole. Set
the radius as the scale value on the inside edge
of the base plate. Tighten the locking screw 27.
Coolant/Lubricant
When sawing metal, coolant/lubricant should be
applied alongside cutting line because of the
material heating up.
