3.3 Safety instructions
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS!
Non-observance of the instructions listed below can cause electric shock, fire and/or serious injuries.
Work area
- Children and adolescents are not allowed to operate this machine.
- When using the machine outdoors, the use of an earth leakage circuit breaker is recommended.
- Replace damaged cables or plugs immediately. To avoid safety hazards, only MAFELL or an authorized
MAFELL service workshop is allowed to replace parts.
- Prevent sharp kinks of the cable. Do not wrap the cable around the machine, especially when transporting
and storing the machine.
- Do not use this machine when you are tired, or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medicaments. Be
aware of what you are doing. Stay alert and use common sense.
- Keep children and bystanders at a distance while you are operating the machine. Distractions can cause
you to lose control of the machine.
- Use eye protection, dust mask and hearing protection. Appropriate safety equipment, used
under proper conditions, will reduce the risk of injuries.
Instructions for service and maintenance:
- Cleaning the machine regularly, especially the adjustment elements and the guiding devices, is an important
safety factor.
- Ensure that only genuine MAFELL spare parts and accessories are used. Failure to do so will make
warranty claims and the liability of the manufacturer null and void.
- Prepare a periodic maintenance schedule for your machine. When you clean the machine, be careful
not to disassemble any part of the machine. Reassembling the machine bears the risk that internal
wires are routed incorrectly or pinched, or that return springs of the safety device are mounted
incorrectly. Certain cleaning agents, such as gasoline, carbon tetrachloride, ammonia, etc. can damage
plastic parts.
- Some of the dust produced by sawing, sanding, drilling and other building work contains chemicals
known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these
chemicals are:
- Lead from lead-based paints,
- Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products,
- Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated wood.
Your risk from this hazard varies with the frequency at which you perform this type of work. To reduce your
exposure to these chemicals: Work in a well-ventilated area. Work only with approved safety equipment,
such as dust masks that are specially designed to filter out particles of microscopic size.

3.4 Specific safety rules
Sawing method
- DANGER: Keep hands away from cutting area and the blade. Keep your second hand on auxiliary
handle, or motor housing. If both hands are holding the saw, they cannot be cut by the blade.
- Do not reach underneath the workpiece.
- Never hold the workpiece in your hands or across your leg while cutting. Secure the workpiece to a
stable platform. It is important to support the work properly to minimize body exposure, blade binding, or
loss of control.
- Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting
tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will also make exposed metal
parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
- Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the workpiece by your hand or against the body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.
Kickback - causes and related safety instructions
Kickback is the result of saw misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided
by taking proper precautions as given below.
- When blade is binding, or when interrupting a cut for any reason, release the trigger and hold the
saw motionless in the material until the blade comes to a complete stop. Never attempt to remove
the saw from the work or pull the saw backward while the blade is in motion or kickback may occur.
Investigate and take corrective actions to eliminate the cause of blade binding.
- When restarting a saw in the workpiece, centre the saw blade in the kerf so that the saw teeth are
not engaged into the material. If a saw blade binds, it may walk up or kickback from the workpiece as the
saw is restarted.
- Support large panels to minimise the risk of blade pinching and kickback. Large panels tend to sag
under their own weight. Supports must be placed under the panel on both sides, near the line of cut and
near the edge of the panel.
- Do not use dull or damaged blades. Unsharpened or improperly set blades produce narrow kerf causing
excessive friction, blade binding and kickback.
- Prior to starting sawing, tighten the cutting depth and cutting angle settings. If the settings change
during the sawing process there is a risk of a jamming saw blade and kickback.
- Use extra caution when sawing into existing walls or other blind areas. The protruding blade may cut
objects that can cause kickback.

plate.
➢ Marking 0 is visible.
✓ The machine is switched off.
Fig. 10: Switching the machine ON/OFF
When the machine is switched on, the integrated electronics ensure jerk-free
acceleration and, under load, readjust the speed to the fixed set value.
In addition, these electronics regulate the motor back in case of overload, i.e. the saw
blade is stopped.
Switch on the machine only when the saw blade is inserted.
At the setting wheel (4), you can adjust the
rotational speed continuously between 800 and
3000 rpm.
Fig. 11: Selecting the rotational speed at the setting wheel
P1cc
09/2022
17
5.3 Pendulum stroke adjustment
The intensity of the pendulum movement can be
selected in four levels at the control lever (3). The
pendulum stroke presses the saw blade against the
workpiece during the working stroke. During the
downward stroke, the saw blade is lifted off the
workpiece. This reduces frictional heat and ensures
optimal chip removal.
The pendulum stroke is switched off at setting 0.
Fig. 12: Pendulum stroke adjustment
You work without pendulum stroke at:
• Thin material
• Working with rasp, butt tooth blade or blade
• Soft material
• Saw-cutting without pilot drilling for cut-outs in wood
• Backward sawing
5.4 Tear-free sawing
The chip breaker guard allows you to work without
tearing.
To do this, push the chip breaker guard (C) all the
way up to the saw blade.
Use a sharp saw blade for tear-free work!
Fig. 13: Mounting the chip breaker guard
5.5 Positioning the base plate
After it has been released, the base plate can be moved forward and backward. The moving process is
described in chapter 4.5 Base plate.
Adjusting the base plate allows the following possible positions:
• Standard position for rectangular cuts (saw blade is completely enclosed).
• Position of the base plate flush with the front edge of the saw blade (for sawing close to the edge).
P1cc
18
09/2022
5.6 Backward sawing
Sawing close to a corner can mean that the base plate support is very small and that angular approach is
difficult. In such a case, it may be useful to saw backwards with the machine.
Use the following procedure to saw backward
with the machine:
1. Insert the saw blade the wrong way round.
➢ See also chapter 4.4 Changing the saw
blade.
2. Saw against the normal direction of sawing.
✓ Sawn backwards with the machine
Fig. 14: Sawing backwards with the machine
Be aware that the pendulum stroke cannot be used during this sawing operation, and
must be switched off.
For this, set the operating lever (3) to position 0.
5.7 Working with the parallel guide fence
The parallel guide fence B can be inserted into the
guide of the machine on both sides.
The parallel guide fence has 4 different functions:
• Parallel guide fence
• Ancillary support
• Rail adapter for the guide rail
• Circle cutter with compass pin or point
Fig. 15: Switching the machine ON/OFF
In the function as a circle cutter, the inserts in the
parallel guide fence (compass point (8) and
compass pin (9)) can be used.
For a circular cut with 68 mm [2.68 in] diameter (e.g.
for cavity sockets or recessed spotlights), the
inserts can be inserted directly into the base plate.
For a circular cut with variable diameter, use the
inserts on the parallel guide fence.
