Tips and tricks
■ Avoid damaging the cutting edge of sensitive
materials, e.g. coated chip boards or doors,
by sticking masking tape along the cutting line.
Another benefi t of this is that it is easier to mark
a line on the tape than on a shiny surface. An
even more eff ective method of protecting the
cutting edges is to clamp a thin piece of wood
along the cutting line (this wood is also sawn).
Maintenance and cleaning
WARNING! RISK OF INJURY!

the battery before starting any work on
the power tool.
The cordless hand-held circular saw is
maintenance-free.

extended period, the charge level should be
checked regularly. The optimum charge level
is between 50% and 80%. Optimum storage
