5.4 Setting for bevel cuts
For bevel cuts, the saw unit can be set to any angle
between 0 °and 60°.
• In order to incline it, bring the machine into home
position and support it such that it is possible to tilt
the saw unit.
• Unfasten the wing nut 10 (Fig. 2)
• Adjust the angle according to the scale on the
segment for tilting.
• Afterwards, tighten the wing bolt 10.
5.5 Plunge cuts
Danger
Risk of backlash during plunge
cuts! Prior to plunging, place the
machine with the rear edge of its
base plate against a limit stop
fastened on the workpiece. Keep a
firm hold on the machine handle
during plunging and push the saw
lightly forward!
• Press the push-button 11 (Fig. 1) and put the
machine in the topmost position with plunge lever 6.
• Completely open the retractable saw guard with the
pre-feed lever 1 (Fig. 2), so that the machine can be
placed onto the workpiece to be processed. The
saw blade is now freely suspended above the
material and can be aligned with the marking.
• Switch on the machine and press the plunge lever 6
(Fig. 1) downwards. This causes the saw blade to
plunge vertically into the workpiece. The plunging
depth can be read from scale 13. The riving knife /
splitter swings up and away when the blade enters
the workpiece. As soon as the slit behind the saw
blade is cleared during the forward motion of the
machine, the riving knife reverts to its normal
position.
In case of repetitive plunge cuts of
the same depth, the plunging depth
can be preset.
Proceed as follows:
• Set the machine to the desired cutting depth.
• Open the clamping screw 14 (Fig. 2) and set the
stop bar 16 downwards up to the limit stop.
• Retighten the clamping screw. After completion of
the plunge work, set the stop bar into the top
position.
5.6 Sawing according to tracings
The pivoting part is equipped with a tracing edge for 0°
- 60°. This tracing edge corresponds to the saw blade's
inside. For bevel cuts, the tracing can be viewed
through the opening on the left-hand side of the upper
saw guard.
• Hold the machine by its handles and place the front
part of its base plate onto the workpiece.
• Switch on the portable circular saw (see chapter
5.2) and slide the machine evenly forward in the
direction of the cut.
• When the cut is completed, switch off the saw by
releasing the switch trigger 8 (Fig. 2)
5.7 Sawing with the parallel stop
The parallel stop 17 (Fig. 2) serves to cut parallel to an
already existing edge. The limit stop can be attached
to the left or right of the machine. The cutting range on
the right-hand side amounts to 40 - 200 mm (1 37/64 –
7 7/8 in.) and on the left-hand side to 195 - 405 mm (7
43/64 – 15 15/16 in.). In the range 195 – 260 mm (7
43/64 – 10 15/64 in.), the machine must be set approx.
10 mm (25/64 in.) to the top, so that the machine can
be pushed under the motor casing.
• You can adjust the cutting width after releasing the
wing screws 9 (Fig. 2) by moving the limit stop
accordingly and afterwards retightening the wing
screws.
In addition, by simply turning it around (guide face for
the workpiece edge points upwards), the parallel stop
can also be used as double support to improve
guidance of the portable circular saw. Now the
machine can be guided along a lath that is fastened on
the workpiece.
