1. A plunge saw with a lay-on section for laying the plunge saw onto an underlay, wherein the plunge saw comprises:
a saw blade,
a lay-on detection device, wherein the plunge saw is designed to detect, as a detected lay-on state, by way of the lay-on detection device, a first lay-on state, in which the plunge saw lies with at least a first region of the lay-on section on the underlay, and/or
a second lay-on state, in which the plunge saw does not lie with at least the first region on the underlay, and to determine an operating state of the plunge saw on a basis of the detected lay-on state,
wherein the lay-on detection device for detecting the first and/or the second lay-on state comprises a detection unit and a lever element, the lever element comprising a lay-on detection section which is formed by an end section of the lever element, wherein the lever element is designed to mechanically actuate the detection unit based on whether the lay-on detection section is actuated by the underlay,
wherein the lay-on detection device is designed to detect the first and/or the second lay-on state on the basis of whether the detection unit is mechanically actuated by the lever element,
wherein the plunge saw comprises a drive section for driving the saw blade, wherein the detection unit is arranged on the drive section and the lever element is movably mounted on the drive section,
wherein the plunge saw comprises a first pivot joint, via which the drive section together with the detection unit can be pivoted relative to the lay-on section into different first pivot positions, so as to adjust a plunge depth of the saw blade,
wherein the lay-on detection section in a feed direction is arranged behind a region of the saw blade.
