[. . . ] ς Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. ς When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. [. . . ] Mount the dust cover 11 onto the machine in such a manner that the centre holder engages on the contact protector 16 and the two outer holders engage in the openings on the casing. Remove the dust cover 11 for applications without dust extraction as well as when performing mitre cuts. For this, push the dust cover together at the two outer holders and pull it off toward the front. 13) Replacing/Inserting the Saw Blade  When mounting the saw blade, wear protective gloves. Selecting a Saw Blade An overview of recommended saw blades can be found at the end of these instructions. Use only T-shank saw blades or saw blades with 1/4" universal shank (U-shank). The saw blade should not be longer than required for the intended cut. Inserting the Saw Blade (see figure B)  Clean the shank of the saw blade before inserting it. Insert the saw blade 14 (teeth in cutting direction) to the stop into the saw blade holder. While inserting the saw blade, pay attention that the back of the saw blade is positioned in the groove of the guide roller 12. Book Page 18 Friday, June 14, 2013 2:03 PM 18 | English Connecting the Dust Extraction Place a vacuum hose 6 (accessory) onto the vacuum connection 7. An overview for the connection of various vacuum cleaners can be found at the end of these instructions. To enable optimum dust extraction, use the splinter guard 20 if possible. When vacuuming dry dust that is especially detrimental to health or carcinogenic, use a special vacuum cleaner. The dust cover 11, vacuum connection 7 and splinter guard 20 cannot be used for mitre cuts. Cut Control for Bevel Cuts (see figure J) For cutting-line control of bevel cuts, the “Cut Control” viewing window 15 has a mark 24 for 0° right-angle cuts and a mark 25 each for the left- or rightward sloping 45° bevel cut according to scale 22. The cutting mark for bevel cuts between 0° and 45° results proportionally. It can additionally be drawn on the “Cut Control” viewing window 15 with a non-permanent marker, and easily be removed again. Offsetting the Base Plate (see figure I) For sawing close to edges, the base plate 9 can be offset to the rear. Loosen the screw 23 and slide the base plate 9 toward the vacuum connection 7 to the stop. Sawing with the base plate 9 offset is possible only at a 0° bevel angle. Additionally, “Cut Control” may not be used together with the base 13, the parallel guide with circle cutter 27 (accessory), as well as the splinter guard 20.
