Starting operation

  • Do not stand in line with the saw blade in front of the power tool. Always stand to the side of the saw blade. This protects your body against possible kickback.
  • Keep hands, fingers and arms away from the rotating saw blade.
  • Do not reach one arm across the other when in front of the tool arm .

  • To start, press the on/off switch (17) and keep it pressed.

Note: For safety reasons, the on/off switch (17) cannot be locked; it must remain pressed throughout operation.

The tool arm can only be guided downwards by pushing the locking lever (1).

  • Therefore, in order to saw, the locking lever (1) must be pressed in addition to pulling the on/off switch.

The electronic soft start limits the torque when the power tool is switched on and increases the service life of the motor.

  • To switch off, release the on/off switch (17).
