workpiece along its entire length, even if the tool arm is
guided downwards.
Setting (see figure T2)
– Turn the set screw (54) with a suitable screwdriver until
the laser beam is parallel to the entire length of the cut-
ting line on the workpiece.
One rotation anticlockwise moves the laser beam from left to
right; one rotation clockwise moves the laser beam from
right to left.
Setting the Standard 0° Bevel Angle
– Bring the power tool into the transport position.
– Turn the saw table (17) to the 0° detent (23). The lever
(20) must be felt to engage in the detent.
Checking (see figure U1)
– Set an angle gauge to 90° and place it on the saw table
(17).
The leg of the angle gauge must be flush with the saw blade
(46) along its entire length.
Setting (see figure U2)
– Loosen the clamping handle (9).
– Loosen the lock nut of the stop screw (39) using a com-
mercially available box-ended or open-ended spanner
(size 10 mm).
– Turn the stop screw as far in or out as needed until the leg
of the angle gauge is flush with the saw blade along its en-
tire length.
– Retighten the clamping handle (31).
– Then retighten the stop screw lock nut (39).
If the angle indicator (38) is not aligned with the 0° mark on
the scale (37) following adjustment, loosen the screw (55)
using a commercially available cross-headed screwdriver
and align the angle indicator along the 0° mark.
Setting the standard 45° bevel angle
– Bring the power tool into the work position.
– Turn the saw table (17) to the 0° detent (23). The lever
(20) must be felt to engage in the detent.
– Loosen the clamping handle (31) and use the handle (9)
to swivel the tool arm all the way to the left (45°).
Checking (see figure V1)
– Set an angle gauge to 45° and place it on the saw table
(17).
The leg of the angle gauge must be flush with the saw blade
(46) along its entire length.
Setting (see figure V2)
– Loosen the clamping handle (31).
– Loosen the lock nut of the stop screw (29) using a com-

– Retighten the clamping handle (31).
– Then retighten the stop screw lock nut (29).
If the angle indicator (38) is not aligned with the 45° mark on
the scale (37) following adjustment, first check the 0° set-
ting for the bevel angle and the angle indicators once more.
Then repeat the adjustment of the 45° bevel angle.
Aligning the mitre angle indicator (see figure W)
– Bring the power tool into the work position.
– Turn the saw table (17) to the 0° detent (23). The lever
(20) must be felt to engage in the detent.
Checking
The angle indicator(22) must be in line with the 0° mark of
the scale (24).
Setting
– Loosen the screw (56) using a cross-headed screwdriver
and align the angle indicator along the 0° mark.
– Retighten the screw.
Transport (see figure X)
Before transporting the power tool, the following steps must
be carried out:
– Loosen the locking screw (32) if it is tightened. Pull the
tool arm fully forwards and retighten the locking screw.
– Bring the power tool into the transport position.
– Remove all accessories that cannot be securely fitted to
the power tool.
If possible, transport unused saw blades in a closed con-

Maintenance and Service

Maintenance and Cleaning

Remove the battery from the power tool before carry-
u
ing out work on the power tool (e.g. maintenance,
changing tool, etc.). The battery should also be re-
moved for transport and storage. There is risk of injury
from unintentionally pressing the on/off switch.
To ensure safe and efficient operation, always keep
u
the power tool and the ventilation slots clean.
The retracting blade guard must always be able to move
freely and retract automatically. It is therefore important to
keep the area around the retracting blade guard clean at all
times.
Always remove dust and chips after working by blowing out
with compressed air or using a brush.
Clean the guide roller (12) regularly.
