Safe working

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
– Ensure that the star handle [2-6] and the
rotary knob [1-14] have been tightened.
CAUTION! Risk of overheating. Before use,
–
make sure that the battery pack is securely
clicked into place
– Do not work on the power tool if its elec­
tronics are defective as this may lead to ex­
cessive speeds. You can tell if the electron­
ics are defective if there is no smooth start-
up, if it is not possible to regulate the speed
and in the event of generation of smoke or
the smell of burning from the machine.
– Check that the saw blade is securely in
place.
– 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
– Correct working position:
– At the front on the side of the operator;
– Head-on to the saw;
– Beside the line of cut.
– During operation, always hold the power
tool tightly by the handle [1-4] in your op­
erating hand. Always keep your free hand
outside of the hazardous area.
– 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.
– Only guide the power tool towards the
workpiece when it is switched on.
Checking that the pendulum guard can move
WARNING! The pendulum guard must always
be able to move freely and close independently.
► Remove the battery pack.
► Take hold of the pendulum guard and, as a
trial run, slide it into the saw unit.
The pendulum guard must be easy to move
and must be almost fully lowered into the
pendulum hood.
Cleaning the area of the saw blade
► Always keep the area around the pendulum
guard clean.

► Clear dust and chippings by blowing out
with compressed air or using a brush.

Acoustic warning signal

Acoustic warning signals sound and the ma­
chine switches off in the following operating
states:
peep ― ―
► Change the battery
► Reduce the machine load
9.3 Clamping the workpiece [10]
WARNING
Risk of injury
► Note the workpiece's properties.
Securely in place – Place the workpieces on the
stop ruler. Do not machine any workpieces that
have not been securely clamped.
Size – Do not machine workpieces that are too
small. In the interests of safety, the cut piece
remaining should be at least 30 mm long.
Small workpieces may be pulled backwards by
the saw blade and into the gap between the saw
blade and the stop ruler.
Correct support – Observe the maximum work­
piece dimensions. Always use and secure ex­
tensions to the workpiece support. Otherwise,
the workpiece may be subjected to internal
stresses, which may lead to sudden deforma­
tions. Observe the information for workpiece di­
mensions (see section 9.4).
Proceed as follows to clamp the workpiece
► Push the saw unit downwards until it rea­
ches the limit stop.
► Pull the lever for the transport locking de­
vice [10-1].
► Slowly guide the saw unit upwards.
► Place the workpiece so that it is flush with
the stop ruler [10-3].
► Use the fastening clamp [10-2] to secure
the workpiece in place.
► Check that the workpiece is securely in
place.
