Setup
Follow these steps to properly install the anti-tilt protection accessory:
- Identify the Mounting Point: Locate the designated slot or mounting point on your compatible plunge saw, typically near the base plate, designed for guide rail accessories.
- Insert the Accessory: Slide the anti-tilt protection accessory into the mounting slot on your plunge saw. Ensure it is oriented correctly, with the locking mechanism facing the guide rail.
- Secure the Accessory: Tighten the integrated screw or locking mechanism on the accessory to firmly secure it to the plunge saw. Do not overtighten.
- Attach to Guide Rail: Place your plunge saw onto the guide rail. The anti-tilt protection should engage with the groove or edge of the guide rail, preventing the saw from lifting or tilting during operation.

Operating Instructions
Once the anti-tilt protection is installed and secured, its operation is integrated with the use of your plunge saw and guide rail:
- The accessory automatically engages with the guide rail as the saw is placed on it, providing a stable platform for cutting.
- It prevents the saw from inadvertently lifting off the guide rail, especially during the initial plunge or when cutting through challenging materials.
- Maintain a firm grip on your plunge saw and guide it smoothly along the rail during operation.
- After completing a cut, carefully lift the saw from the guide rail. The anti-tilt protection will disengage automatically.
