Practical advice
The worklight improves visibility in the immediate work area and also indicates the cutting line of the saw blade. This allows for exact positioning of the workpiece for sawing, without having to open the retracting blade guard.
- Mark the required cutting line on the workpiece.
- Switch on the worklight with the switch (35).
- Guide the tool arm down in front of the workpiece.
The saw blade's shadow will appear on the workpiece. This shadow line indicates the material that will be removed by the saw blade during cutting. - Align your mark on the workpiece with the shadow line.
The insert plate (9) can become worn after long use of the power tool.
Replace a defective insert plate.
- Bring the power tool into the work position.
- Unscrew the screws (54) using a commercially available cross-headed screwdriver and remove the old insert plate (9).
- Insert the new insert plate and screw the screws (54) in tight again.
