6.10.1.3 Making angular cuts (Fig. 42)
Angular cuts must always be made using the parallel stop (7).
• Set the blade (5) to the desired angle. (See 8.3.)
• Set the parallel stop (7) in accordance with the workpiece width and
height (see 6.4)
• Carry out the cut in accordance with the workpiece width (see 6.10.1.1
and 6.10.1.2).
6.10.2 Making cross cuts (Fig. 43)
• Slide the cross stop (13) into one of the grooves (29) in the table and
adjust to the required angle (see 6.6). If you also want to tilt the blade
(5), use the groove (29) which prevents your hand and the cross stop
from making contact with the blade guard.
• If necessary, use the stop rail (e).
• Press the workpiece firmly against the cross stop (13).
• Switch on the saw.
• Push the cross stop (13) and the workpiece toward the blade in order
to make the cut.
• m Important:
Always hold the guided part of the workpiece. Never hold the part
which is to be cut off.
• Push the cross stop (13) forward until the workpiece is cut all the way
through.
• Switch off the saw again. Do not remove the offcut until the blade has
stopped rotating.
6.10.3 Cutting particle boards
To prevent the cutting edges from cracking when working with particle
boards, you should not set the saw blade (5) more than 5mm higher than
the thickness of the workpiece (refer to point 6.2).
