Connecting the base plate to the guide rail
is important when doing miter cuts. This
prevents the plunge saw from tilting over.
5. Disconnect the plunge saw by turning the
locking mechanism back towards 0 and
taking the saw off the guide rail.

The play of the base plate on the guide rail
can be reduced to minimum with the fine
adjustment screws (8).
1. Loosen the fine adjustment screws counter-
clockwise.
2. Turn both fine adjustment screws (8)
clockwise to minimize the play between
base plate and guide rail, if necessary.
3. Fasten the fine adjustment screws
clockwise.
COnnECTIng RODS FOR gUIDE RAIlS
(OPTIOnAl)
1. To connect both guide rails slide the first
connecting rod from the bottom into the
groove of the guide rail.
2. Slide the other connecting rod into the
second groove.
3. Use the 3 mm Allen key to tighten the stud
screws to the limit stop to connect the rails.
DETERmInE CUTTIng lInE
When using the saw with guide rail always
align position A (0 mark on base plate) at the
front of the base plate with your marked
cutting line for straight cuts and 45° miter cuts.
gUIDE RAIl SPlInTER gUARDS
The guide rails come with a splinter guard
(black protruding rubber lip). The splinter
guard should be cut to size before first use.
The splinter guard ensures a tear-free cut,
since the wood fibers at the top of the work
piece are torn without splinter guard. This is
due to the saw blade teeth being directed
upward.
After cutting the splinter guard to size it also
shows the precise cutting path of the saw
blade.
Splinter
guide
1. Mark a cutting line on the work piece and
align the guide rail exactly with this cutting
line.
2. Fix the guide rail with clamps on the work
piece.
3. Set the selector switch to marked cut
function. Set the plunge saw speed to 6.
4. Place the plunge saw at the rear end of the
guide rail.
5. Switch the plunge saw on and push the
saw down. Cut the splinter guard
continuously over the entire length. The
edge of the splinter guard now exactly
matches the cutting edge.
KICKBACK STOP
The kickback stop is designed to prevent
operator injuries due to kickback.
