4.6 Saw blade change

Danger
Unplug the rechargeable battery for
all service work.

To fold the saw guard cover 23 (Fig.3) down on
the side, press push-button 2 (Fig. 4) and pull
up the locking lever 3. Pulling the locking lever
automatically locks the saw shaft and locks the
gearshift lever.

Use the Allen key 4 (brackets Fig. 2) to release
the flange screw 5 (Fig. 3) counter clockwise.
Remove the screw and the front clamping flange
6.

You can now remove the saw blade by lifting it
to the front.

The clamping flanges must be free of adhering
parts.

Pay attention to the sense of rotation when
inserting the saw blade.

Afterwards, mount the clamping flange, attach
the flange screw and tighten it by clockwise
turning.

Lock the saw guard cover. To this end, close the
cover and press the locking lever 3 (Fig.3)
downwards.

Operation

5.1 Initial operation

Personnel entrusted to work with the machine must
be made aware of the operating instructions, calling
particular attention
instructions".

5.2 Switching on and off


Switching on: Press the switch-on lock 7 (Fig.
4) forward to unlock it. Then actuate switch
to the chapter "Safety
trigger 8 (Fig. 4) when the switch-on lock is
pressed.
As this is a switch without locking device, the
machine will only run for as long as this shift lever is
pressed.
The built-in electronic system provides for jerk-free
acceleration when the machine is switched on and
under load readjusts the speed to the fixed setting.
In addition, this electronic system adjusts the motor
down in case of overload, i.e. the saw blade will stop.
Switch the machine off then. Then switch the
machine on again and continue sawing at a reduced
feed speed.

Switching off:Release switch trigger 8 (Fig. 4)
to switch off the machine.

5.3 Cutting depth adjustment

The cutting depth is continuously variable between 0
and 57 mm (0 to 2 ¼ in.), graduated in 1 mm steps.
Proceed as follows:

Adjust the indicator 10 (Fig. 4) by turning it into
the top or bottom position, depending on
whether you are working with or without the
guide rail.

Set the cutting depth with the depth stop 11
according to the scale. The limit stop has a 1
mm latching mechanism.

In order to set intermediate measurements, you
can turn the cylinder screw 12 (Fig. 4) with the
Allen key 4 (retaining bracket Fig. 2). One turn
corresponds to 1 mm change in cutting depth.
Always set the cutting depth
approx. 2 to 5 mm (5/64 to 13/64
in.) larger than the material
thickness to be cut.

5.4 Setting for bevel cuts

For bevel cuts, the saw unit can be set to any angle
between 0 °and 45°.

Unfasten the wing screw 13 (Fig. 4).

Adjust the angle according to the scale on the
segment for tilting.

Afterwards, tighten the wing screw 13.
