• ADJUSTING THE PENDULUM REGULATOR

  • The saw blade pendulum has 4 settings (0, I, II, III) which can be selected using the pendulum adjustment knob (fig.1.3).
  • The pendulum setting adapts the quality of cut to the material being worked by changing the movement pattern of the blade in relation to the workpiece. The higher the setting, the more aggressive the cut.
  • Use a low pendulum setting or switch the function off if a very fine cut is required. At a setting of 0, the blade moves vertically up and down.
  • Always switch off the pendulum adjustment when working in metal, hardwood or thin material, such as sheet metal.
  • Use a low setting if working on hard materials.
  • Use the maximum setting when working on soft materials and when sawing with the grain.

• ABOUT SAWING
