2. Unhook the chain (10) from the transport lock (11).
3. Slowly guide the machine head (12) upwards.
Attention! Due to the return spring, the machine
head (12) automatically moves upwards, i.e. do not
let go of the handle (15) after finishing cutting but
move the machine head (12) slowly upwards with
light counter-pressure.
4. The machine head (12) must be locked in the low-
er position again after the work process.
Clamping the workpiece (Fig. 3)
Each workpiece must be fixed in a vice before working.
1. Fold the quick clamp lever (6) up.
2. Pull the clamping grip (7) out until the workpiece
can be clamped between the clamping surfaces of
the movable clamping jaw (5) and the adjustable
stop (9).
Note: It is not necessary to turn the clamping grip (7) if
the quick clamp lever (6) is folded up. The spindle can
be pulled out or inserted continuously.
Push the clamping grip (7) forward until the clamping
surfaces of the movable clamping jaw (5) and the ad-
justable stop (9) touch the workpiece. Fold the quick
clamp lever (6) back down so that the spindle and the
quick clamp lever (6) interlock.
Turn the clamping grip (7) to clamp the workpiece in
the vice securely.
Mitre cuts (Fig. 3)
In order to carry out mitre cuts, it is possible to adjust
the stop (7) from 0° - 45° to the left and from 0° - 30°
to the right.
1. Loosen the two screws (A) using the ring spanner
(8).
2. Adjust the adjustable stop (9) to the desired angle
by turning it.
3. Tighten the two screws (A) again using the ring
spanner (8).
4. When the workpiece is tightly clamped, the mova-
ble clamping jaw (5) automatically swivels into the
required position and aligns itself with the work-
piece in order to ensure that the workpiece is se-
curely fixed.
Adjusting the stop screw (Fig. 4)
The cutting depth of the cutting wheel (4) can be adjust-
ed using the stop screw (B).
This is necessary because the diameter of the cutting
wheel (4) reduces due to wear and therefore the work-
piece would no longer be completely cut through.

To do this, loosen the counternut on the stop screw (B)
with the ring spanner (8) and screw the stop screw (B)
in or unscrew it as required.
Replacing the cutting wheel (see Fig. 1/5)
Remove the mains plug!
1. Put the machine head (12) in the resting position.
2. Fold the adjustable protection (2) up.
3. Press the locking bolt (3) in and turn the cutting
wheel (4) with the other hand until the locking bolt
(3) engages.
4. Loosen the clamping screw (C) using the ring
spanner (8) provided.
5. Remove the clamping screw (C), washer, outer
flange and worn cutting wheel (12).
6. Reinsert the new cutting wheel in reverse order
and tighten it again. Attention! The parts must be
cleaned carefully before installation. Attention!
Observe the direction of rotation of the cutting
wheel! Only use recommended, reinforced cutting
wheels and only tighten the clamping screw (C)
until the cutting wheel (12) can be held securely
and not slip. If the clamping screw (C) is tightened
too tight, the wheel can be damaged.
7. Fold the adjustable protection down again.
On/off switch (Fig. 1)
1. Switching on: First press the switch locking knob
(13) and then the on/off switch (14).
2. Switching off: Release the on/off switch (14) again.
Making the cut (Fig. 1)
Attention! Ensure that the workpiece is securely
clamped.
1. Switch the machine on and wait until the motor has
reached its maximum speed.
2. Press the machine head (12) on the handle (15)
down until the cutting wheel (4) lightly touches the
workpiece.
3. Now make the separating cut by pressing down
the machine head (12) evenly. Attention! The
cutting wheel must not vibrate or bounce as this
would reduce the quality of the cut or even break
the cutting wheel. Also, the cutting speed must not
be reduced at the end of the cutting process as
this prevents the workpiece from overheating and
avoids an increase in burr formation.
