Swing the saw arm back up, release the accelerator lever and wait until the electric saw
brake stops the saw.
Now you can take the workpiece away

OPERATION NOTICES
Always use well sharpened saw blades. Deflected, cracked or worn saw blades are a
security risk and have to be replaced immediately!
Assure yourself that you do not overload the machine. Use it for operations it is designed
for.
Choose always saw blades where at least 2-3 teeth are simultaneously in the material to
achieve a clean cut and to reduce the risk of material kickback.
For precision miter and bevele cuts you should use a saw blade with at least 60 teeth.
