7.2 Setting the depth of cut
A
Danger!
Parts of the body or objects in
the setting range can be caught be
the running saw blade! Set the depth
of cut only with the saw blade at
standstill!
The saw blade's cutting height needs to
be adapted the the height of the work-
piece: the blade guard shall rest with its
front edge on the workpiece.
•
Set the depth of cut by turning the
handwheel (68) on the chip case.

Note:
To compensate for possible play
in the blade height setting mechanism,
always raise the blade to the desired
position.
7.3 Setting the saw blade tilt
A
Danger!

rip fence is less than 120 mm.
3. Set the cutting height of the saw
blade. The blade guard must rest
with its front edge on the workpiece.
4. Set saw blade tilt and lock.
5. Start motor.
6. Cut workpiece in a single pass.
