Operating modes

Remove the battery from the power tool before carrying out work on the power tool (e.g. maintenance, changing tool, etc.). The battery should also be removed for transport and storage. There is risk of injury from unintentionally pressing the on/off switch.

Pendulum action settings

The pendulum action can be adjusted using four different settings, allowing the cutting speed, cutting capacity and the cut itself to be optimally adapted to the material that you want to cut.

You can also adjust the pendulum action during operation using the adjusting lever (8).

Level 0	No pendulum action
Level I	Low pendulum action
Level II	Moderate pendulum action
Level III	High pendulum action

The optimum pendulum level for each application can be determined by a practical test. Note the following recommendations:

Select a lower pendulum level or switch off the pendulum action completely if you wish to produce a finer or cleaner cutting edge.
Switch off the pendulum action when machining thin materials (e.g. sheets).
Work on hard materials (e.g. steel) with low pendulum action.
You can work on soft materials and saw wood using maximum pendulum action.

Adjusting the mitre/bevel angle (see figure G)

The base plate (9) can be swivelled to the right or left to make mitre cuts up to 45°.

The hood (16) and anti-splinter guard (15) cannot be used while mitre cuts are being made.

Push the extraction outlet (17) gently upward and pull it out of the base plate (9).
Remove the hood (16) and the anti-splinter guard (15).
Loosen the screw (19) with the hex key (4) and slide the base plate (9) slightly towards the saw blade (10).
The base plate has lock-in points at 0° and 45° on the left and right so that precise mitre/bevel angles can be set. Swivel the base plate (9) to the required position according to the scale (20). Other mitre/bevel angles can be adjusted using a protractor.
Then push the base plate (9) towards the rechargeable battery as fas as it will go.
Retighten the screw (19).
