6.5 Extractor connection piece 

Sawdust extraction

To extract the sawdust, connect a suitable 

extraction unit with suction hose to the extraction 

adapter (3).

7.1 The machine's multifunctional 

monitoring system

If the machine switches off automatically, the 

machine electronics have activated automatic 

protection mode. A warning signal sounds 

(continuous beeping). The beeping stops after a 

maximum of 30 seconds or when the trigger switch 

(5) is released.

In spite of this protective function, overloading 

is still possible with certain applications and 

can result in damage to the machine.

Causes and remedies:

1.

Battery pack almost flat

 (the electronics 

prevent the battery pack from discharging totally 

and avoid irreparable damage).

If one LED (20) is flashing, the battery pack is 

almost flat. If necessary, press the button (21) 

and check the LEDs (20) to see the charge level. 

If the battery pack is almost flat, it must be 

recharged.

2. Long continuous overloading of the machine will 

activate the 

temperature cut-out

.

The machine continues to run with reduced 

performance until the temperature is back to 

normal. 
In case of excessive overheating, the machine 

will switch off completely.
Leave the machine or battery pack to cool. 
Note: If the battery pack feels very warm, the 

pack will cool more quickly in your "AIR 

COOLED" charger. 
Note: The machine will cool more quickly if you 

operate it at idling speed.

3. If the 

current is too high

 (for example, if the 

machine seizes continuously for long periods), 

the machine switches off.

Switch off the machine at the trigger switch (5). 

Then continue working as normal (in this case, 

read in particular the safety instructions in 

Chapter 4...Kickback... in addition to all other 

safety instructions). Try to prevent the machine 

from seizing.

7.2 Switching on and off

Switching on: 

Push the locking button (6) forwards 

and hold, then actuate the trigger (5) .

Switching off:

 Release the trigger switch (5).

7.3 Working Directions

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 

workpiece.

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 (11). The left notch (marked 0°) 

indicates 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 guide: 

For cuts parallel to a straight edge. The parallel 

guide (12) can be inserted from either side into the 

support provided for it. Tighten the locking screw 

(10). It is best to calculate the exact cut width by 

making a test cut.

Sawing with guide rail 6.31213:

For dead straight, tear-free cutting edges with 

millimetre precision. 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.

Changing saw blades

Remove battery pack from machine.

Press in the spindle locking button (22) and hold in 

place. Turn the saw spindle slowly with the spanner 

in the saw blade fixing screw (23)  (18)until the lock 

catches. 
Unscrew the saw blade fixing screw in a clockwise 

direction and remove the outer saw blade flange 

(24). Pull back the movable guard (28) and remove 

the saw blade.

Ensure that the inner saw blade flange (27) is 

inserted in the right way: The inner saw blade 

flange (27) has 2 sides, diameter 20 mm and 5/8“ 

(16 mm). Ensure a precise fit of saw blade mounting 

hole to the inner saw blade flange  (27)! Incorrectly 

installed saw blades do not run smoothly and lead 

to loss of control.
Insert a new saw blade, Make sure the direction of 

rotation is correct. The direction of rotation is 

indicated by arrows on the saw blade and guard. 

The contact areas between the inner saw blade 

flange (27), the saw blade (25), the outer saw blade
