[. . . ] Safety hints For your own safety, please refer to the enclosed safety instructions. 1 & 2) Important: Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before installing or removing the blade. With the blade teeth facing forward, insert the blade into the blade holder as far as it will go. [. . . ] 14) Use of the circular guide insures clean, smooth cutting of circles (radius: under 200 mm). Insert the pin through the center hole and secure it with the threaded knob. Then install the circular guide on the base in the same manner as the rip fence (guide rule). 5 & 6) With the base tilted, you can make bevel cuts at any angle between 0° and 45° (left or right). Move the base so that the bolt is positioned in the center of the cross-shaped slot in the base. 15, 16 & 17) The vacuum head is recommended to perform clean cutting operations. Install the plastic cover on the tool by fitting it into the notches in the tool. To attach the vacuum head on the tool, insert the hook of the vacuum head into the hole in the base. The vacuum head can be installed on either left or right side of the base. 7) Loosen the bolt on the bottom of the tool and move the base all the way back. A) Boring a starting hole: For internal cutouts without a lead-in cut from an edge, pre-drill a starting hole more than 12 mm in diameter. 8) Plung cutting: You need not bore a starting hole or make a lead-in cut if you carefully do as follows. Tilt the tool up on the front edge of the base, with the blade point positioned just above the workpiece surface. Apply pressure to the tool so that the front edge of the base will not move when you switch on the tool and gently lower the back end of the tool slowly.
