BLADE INSTALLATION
Disconnect the power tool from power supply.
Installation and removal of the blade is toolless.
● Turn the ring of the blade holder (2) and slide the blade into the holder until it stops (fig. A).
● Release the ring of the blade holder (2) (the ring will return to the default position).
● Pull the blade lightly to make sure it is properly fixed.
If the ring of the blade holder does not return to the default position, turn the ring manually.
FOOTPLATE ADJUSTMENT
Disconnect the power tool from power supply.
● Loosen the footplate fixing screws (6).
● Set the footplate (7) to required distance (fig. B).
● Tighten the footplate fixing screws (6).
MAIN ADJUSTABLE HANDLE
Before starting operation you can adjust main handle to the position most comfortable for the task. The
handle can be set up in 5 positions within 180° rotation range in long axis of the tool body (90° left or right
from the base position).
● Move the main handle lock (8) back (fig. C).
● Rotate the main handle around long axis of the tool to desired position (fig. D).
● The main handle automatically locks in desired position.
SWITCHING ON / SWITCHING OFF
The mains voltage must match the voltage on the rating plate of the saw.
Switching on – press the switch button (5).
Switching off – release pressure on the switch (5).
Locking the switch (continuous operation)
Switching on:
● Press the switch button (5) and hold in this position.
● Press the switch lock button (4) (fig. E).
● Release pressure on the switch button (5).
Switching off:
● Press and release the switch button (5).
OPERATION SPEED ADJUSTMENT
Working speed is controlled with pressure on the switch button (5).
CUTTING
● Put front part of the footplate (7) flat on the material that you plan to cut (fig. F).
● Start the saw and adjust working speed to properties of processed material.
● Move the saw slowly and guide the blade along previously set cutting line (fig. G).
Cut at a steady rate, be careful not to overload the saw. Excessive pressure applied on the blade will suppress
operation and will affect cutting efficiency unfavourably.
During operation whole surface of the footplate should contact surface of the processed material.
