Inserting/changing the saw blade
When fitting or changing the saw blade, wear protect-
u
ive gloves. Blades are sharp and can become hot when
used for prolonged periods of time.
Selecting the saw blade
You will find an overview of recommended saw blades at the
end of these operating instructions. Only use saw blades
with a single lug shank (T shank) or with a 1/4" universal
shank (U shank). The saw blade should not be longer than
required for the intended cut.
Use a narrow saw blade when sawing tight curves.
Inserting the saw blade (see figure A)
Clean the shaft on the saw blade before inserting it.
u
A dirty shaft cannot be securely fixed in place.
If necessary, remove the hood (8).
Push the saw blade receptacle (14) upwards in the direction
of the arrow. Push the saw blade (10), with the teeth in the
cutting direction, into the saw blade receptacle as far as it
will go.
Make sure when inserting the saw blade that the back of the
saw blade is in the groove on the guide roller (12).
Check that the saw blade is seated securely. A loose
u
saw blade can fall out and lead to injuries.
Removing the saw blade (see figure B)
Push the saw blade receptacle (14) upwards in the direction
of the arrow and remove the saw blade (10).
Saw blade storage compartment (accessory) (see
figure C)
You can keep up to six saw blades that are no longer than
110 mm in the saw blade storage compartment (16). Insert
the saw blades with single lug shank (T shank) into the saw
blade storage compartment in the recess intended for these.
You can place up to three saw blades on top of each other.
Close the saw blade storage compartment and push it as far
as it will go into the recess in the base plate (7).
Glide shoe (accessory) (see figure D)
When machining sensitive surfaces, you can place the glide
shoe (17) on the base plate (7) in order to prevent the sur-
face from being scratched.
To position the glide shoe (17), hook it to the front of the
base plate (7), push it up at the back and allow it to click into
place.
When working with the glide shoe, neither the saw blade
storage compartment (16) nor the Cut Control must be
used.
Anti-splinter guard (accessory) (see figure E)
The anti-splinter guard (18) (accessory) can prevent splin-
tering of the surface while sawing wood. The anti-splinter
guard can only be used with certain saw blade types and only
at a cutting angle of 0°. When sawing with the anti-splinter
guard, the base plate (7) must not be moved to the rear for
sawing close to edges.

Push the anti-splinter guard (18) into the base plate (7)
from below (as shown in the figure with the groove facing up-
wards).
Cut Control (accessory)
Cut Control enables the power tool to be guided precisely
along a cutting line marked on the workpiece. Cut Control
includes the viewing window (11) with cut marks and the
base (9) for securing to the power tool.
Securing Cut Control to the base plate (see figure F)
Firmly insert the viewing window for Cut Control (11) into
the brackets on the base (9). Then push the base together
gently and allow it to click into place in the guide (19) on the
base plate (7).

Dust/Chip Extraction

The dust from materials such as lead paint, some types of
wood, minerals and metal can be harmful to human health.
Touching or breathing in this dust can trigger allergic reac-
tions and/or cause respiratory illnesses in the user or in
people in the near vicinity.
Certain dusts, such as oak or beech dust, are classified as
carcinogenic, especially in conjunction with wood treatment
additives (chromate, wood preservative). Materials contain-
ing asbestos may only be machined by specialists.
– Use a dust extraction system that is suitable for the ma-
terial wherever possible.
– Provide good ventilation at the workplace.
– It is advisable to wear a P2 filter class breathing mask.
The regulations on the material being machined that apply in
the country of use must be observed.
Avoid dust accumulation at the workplace. Dust can
u
easily ignite.
Hood (accessories) (see figures G and H)
Fit the hood (8) before you connect the power tool to the
dust extraction system.
Position the hood (8) on the power tool so that the two outer
brackets engage in the recesses of the housing.
Remove the hood (8) when working without a dust extrac-
tion system and for mitre cuts. To do this, push the hood to-
gether at the level of the outer brackets and remove it by
pulling it forwards.
Connecting the dust extraction system (see figure I)
Push the dust extraction adapter (20) (accessory) onto an
extraction hose (21) (accessory) until you hear it click into
place. Connect the dust extraction adapter (20) to the ex-
traction outlet (6) on the power tool and the extraction
hose (21) to a dust extractor (accessory).
You will find an overview of connecting to various dust ex-
tractors at the end of these operating instructions.
For optimum dust extraction, where possible use the anti-
splinter guard (18).
The dust extractor must be suitable for the material being
worked.
