9 Working with the electric
power tool
When working on the machine, observe
all of the safety warnings that are listed
at the start as well as the following rules:
Before starting
– Before each use, check whether the drive
unit with the saw blade correctly and fully
swivels back up into its initial position in
the protective housing. Do not use the saw
if the upper end position is not secured.
Never clamp or secure the swivelling drive
unit at a specific cutting depth. This would
mean that the saw blade is not protected.
– Check the plunging mechanism prior to use
and do not use the machine if it does not
work correctly.
– Check that the saw blade is securely in
place.
Make sure that the rotary knob [1.4] is
–
tightened before starting work.
– Make sure that extractor hose and mains
power cable do not snag the entire saw cut,
either on the workpiece, the workpiece
support or hazards on the ground.
– Always secure the workpiece in such a way
that it cannot move during machining.
– Position the workpiece so that it is stress-
free and level.
During work
– When working, always hold the power tool
with both hands on the handles [11.1],
[11.2]. This is a prerequisite for precise
work and is essential for plunge-cutting.
Plunge into the workpiece slowly and even­
ly.
– Only guide the power tool towards the
workpiece when it is switched on.
Always push the saw forwards [13.3], and
–
never towards yourself.
– Adapt the infeed speed to prevent the cut­
ters on the saw blade from overheating and
prevent plastic materials from melting dur­
ing cutting. The harder the material to be
sawn, the lower the feed speed needs to be.
– Do not work with the machine if the elec­
tronics are defective, because this may lead
to excessive speeds. You can tell if the
electronics are defective if there is no
smooth start-up or if it is not possible to
regulate the speed or where smoke is
present or if there is a smell of burning
coming from the machine.

Switching the machine on and off

Keep the machine steady during
switching and during use by holding the han­
dle [11.2] and the additional handle [11.1] with
both hands
To switch on, first push the cut-in and release
block [11.4] forwards, and then press the „On"-
"Off" switch [11.3]. You can then press the ma­
chines down for sawing, and release the cut-in
and release block.
To switch off, release the „On"-"Off" switch.
11.1
After the machine has been
switched off, the saw blade will still rotate for a
time. Take care that parts of your body do not
come into contact with the saw blade while it is
still rotating!
As soon as you remove the machine from the
workpiece once sawing has been completed,
the machine automatically returns to its basic
position and the saw blade is again completely
covered by the protective covering.
9.2

Support of the workpieces

Ensure that your workpieces are securely fixed
and cannot move during sawing. Otherwise,
there is an increased risk of accident. Never
hold the workpiece to be cut with your hands or
between your legs. Use instead screw
clamps [12.1] or some other suitable devices to
fix your workpiece.
