Working instructions

Do not switch the machine on or off while the
saw blade is touching the workpiece.
Let the saw blade reach its full speed before
making a cut.
When the hand-held circular saw is added, the
movable guard is swung backwards by the work-
piece.
When sawing, never remove the machine
from the material with the saw blade turning.
Allow the saw blade to come to a standstill.
If the saw blade blocks, turn the machine off
immediately.
Sawing along a straight line: the cutting indicator
is used here (10). The left notch (marked 0°) indi-
cates the direction of the cut if the saw blade is held
vertically. The right notch (marked 45°) indicates the
direction of the cut if the saw blade is held at 45°.
Sawing along a rail secured on the workpiece: In
order to achieve an exact cutting edge, you can
attach a rail to the workpiece and then guide the
hand-held circular saw by means of the guide plate
along this rail.
Sawing with parallel stop:
For cuts parallel to a straight edge. The parallel
guide (9) can be inserted from either side into the
support provided for it. Read the cut width from the
right or left of the cutting display (10). Tighten the
locking screw (11). It is best to calculate the exact
cut width by making a test cut.
Sawing with guide rail 6.31213:
For straight, tear-free cut edges, precise to the milli-
metre. The anti-slip coating keeps the surface safe
and protects the workpiece against scratches. For
guide rail 6.31213, see chapter on Accessories.
Battery pack heat generation:
Under extremely hard application conditions (e.g.
sawing thick wooden planks), the heavy load can
cause the battery pack to heat (> 60 °C). To
conserve the battery pack, allow it to cool down
before continuing work.

LED lights

The powerful LED (8) illuminates the cutting line
when the machine is switched on.
7 Maintenance
Dust deposits must be regularly removed from the
machine. This includes cleaning the ventilation slits
on the motor with a vacuum cleaner.
Changing saw blades
Remove battery pack from machine.

Press in the spindle locking button (3) and hold in
place. Turn the saw spindle slowly with the spanner
in the saw blade fixing screw (20) (15)until the lock
catches.
Unscrew the saw blade fixing screw in a clockwise
direction and remove the outer saw blade flange
(21). Pull back the movable safety guard (23) and
remove the saw blade.
Ensure that the inner saw blade flange (24) is
inserted the correct way round (the collar faces the
saw blade).
Insert a new saw blade, making sure the direction of
rotation is correct. The direction of rotation is indi-
cated by arrows on the saw blade and safety guard.
The contact areas between the inner saw blade
flange (24), the saw blade (22), the outer saw blade
flange (21) and the saw blade fixing screw (20) must
be clean.
Put on the outer saw blade flange (21). Ensure that
the outer saw blade flange (21) is inserted the
correct way round (inscription facing outwards).
Tighten the saw blade fixing screw (20) using the
hexagon wrench (15).
Use only sharp, undamaged saw blades. Do
not use any cracked saw blades or blades
that have changed their shape.
Do not use any saw blades made from high-
alloy high-speed steel (HSS).
Do not use any saw blades which do not
conform to the specified rating.
The saw blade must be suitable for the no-
load speed.
Use a saw blade that is suitable for the mate-
rial being sawn.
