until it stops (fig. A).
• Release the ring of the blade holder (2) (the ring will return to the
default position).
• Pull the blade lightly to make sure it is properly fixed.
If the ring of the blade holder does not return to the default
position, turn the ring manually.
FOOTPLATE ADJUSTMENT
Disconnect the power tool from power supply.
• Loosen the footplate fixing screws (6).
• Set the footplate (7) to required distance (fig. B).
• Tighten the footplate fixing screws (6).

OPERATION / SETTINGS

SWITCHING ON / SWITCHING OFF
The mains voltage must match the voltage on the rating plate of
the saw.
Switching on – press the switch button (5).
Switching off – release pressure on the switch (5).

• Start the saw and adjust working speed to properties of processed
material.
• Move the saw slowly and guide the blade along previously set cutting
line (fig. G).
Cut at a steady rate, be careful not to overload the saw. Excessive pressure
applied on the blade will suppress operation and will affect cutting
efficiency unfavourably.
