# Sawing

##

- Adjust the parallel guide (5) to the desired cutting width.
- Place the workpiece on the saw table in front of the protective cover (3).
- Use the crank (15) to raise or lower the saw blade as far up or down as needed to position the top teeth of the saw blade (24) approx. 3−6 mm above the workpiece.
- Switch on the power tool.
- Saw through the workpiece applying uniform feed.
  If you apply too much pressure, the tip of the saw blade could overheat and damage the workpiece.
- Switch off the power tool and wait until the saw blade has come to a complete stop.

##

- Set the required saw blade bevel angle.
  If the saw blade is tilted to the left, the parallel guide (5) must be to the right of the blade.
- Follow the work steps set out in the see Making straight cuts section

##

- Set the desired mitre angle on the angle guide (2).
- Place the workpiece against the angle guide (2).
- Raise or lower the saw blade using the crank (15) until the upper saw teeth lie approx. 5 mm above the surface of the workpiece.
- Switch the power tool on.
- Hold the workpiece against the angle guide with one hand; place your other hand on the locking knob (53) and slide the angle guide slowly forwards in the guide groove (28).
- Switch off the power tool and wait until the saw blade has come to a complete stop.
