- Use an extraction unit and/or air purifiers.

- Ensure good ventilation of the workplace and 

keep clean using a vacuum cleaner. Sweeping or 

blowing stirs up dust.

- Vacuum or wash the protective clothing. Do not 

blow, beat or brush.

See page 2.

released, you can adjust the play and thus the 

sliding movement of the guide rail by shifting the 

screws. *

Before plugging in the device, check that the 

rated mains voltage and mains frequency, as 

specified on the rating label, match your power 

supply.

Australia: Always use a residual current device 

(RCD) protected supply with a rated residual 

current of 30 mA or less.

Pull the plug out of the plug socket before 

carrying out any adjustments or servicing.

6.1 Setting depth of cut

Loosen the locking screw (7). Raise or lower the 

motor section against the guide plate (8). Read the 

depth of cut that has been set from the scale (6). 

Tighten the locking  (7)screw again.

It is advisable to set the depth of cut so that no more 

than half of each tooth on the saw blade juts out 

under the workpiece. See illustration on page 2.

Note:

 the clamping power of the locking screw (7) 

can be adjusted. Unscrew the screw on the lever to 

do this. Remove lever and mount offset 

counterclockwise. Secure with screw. When doing 

this, note that the cutting depth setting device 

moves freely when the lever is open.

6.2 Slanting saw blade for diagonal cuts

Loosen the locking screws (2). Tilt the motor section 

against the guide plate.  (8) Read the angle which 

has been set from the scale (3). Tighten the locking  

(2)screws again.
For a diagonal cut angle of 47°, push down the 

undercut limit stop  (12).

6.3 Sawdust extraction

Fit the extraction adapter (9) and secure with the 

socket head screw.
To extract the sawdust, connect a suitable extrac-

tion unit with suction hose to the extraction adapter 

(9).
If you are not using sawdust extraction, remove the 

dust extraction adapter (9).

7.1 Switching ON and OFF

Switching on: 

Press locking button (5) and hold in; 

then actuate the trigger (4).

Switching off:

 Release the trigger (4).

7.2 Working instructions

Lay out the mains cable such that the cut can be 

executed without obstruction.

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 (13).
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 along this rail by means of 

the guide plate  (8).

Sawing with parallel stop: 

For cuts parallel to a 

straight edge. 
The parallel guide (14) can be inserted from the 

right-hand side into the support provided for it. Read
