Inside cuts
Warning: Switch off the saw and remove the mains supply plug
before installing saw blades in order to avoid injuries caused
by unintentional activation of the saw.
This saw is suited also to inside cuts cuts not starting at
the edge of the work piece. Proceed as follows:
• Drilla6mmholeintheworkpiece.
• Loosenthebladetensionerandreleasethetensionin

• Installthesawbladethroughtheholeintheworkpiece
and through the work blade slot, and fasten the blade to
the holders.
• Whenyouhavecompletedtheinsidecut,removethesaw

m Electrical connection
The installed electric motor is completely wired ready for
operation.
The customer’s connection to the power supply system,
and any extension cables that may be used, must conform
with local regulations.
Important remark:
The motor is automatically switched off in the event of an
overload. The motor can be switched on again after a cool-
ing down period that can vary.
Defective electrical connection cables
Electrical connection cables often suffer insulation dam-
age.
Possible causes are:
• Pinch points when connection cables are run through
window or door gaps.
• Kinksresulting fromincorrect attachment or laying of
the connection cable.
• Cutsresultingfromrunningovertheconnectingcable.
• Insulationdamageresultingfromforcefullypullingout
of the wall socket.
• Cracksthroughagingofinsulation.
Such defective electrical connection cables must not be
used as the insulation damage makes them extremely haz-
ardous.
Checkelectricalconnectioncablesregularlyfordamage.
Make sure the cable is disconnected from the mains when
checking.
Electrical connection cables must comply with the regula-
tions applicable in your country.
