• Position the angle stop (a) between the saw blade (6) and the rotary table (14).

• Adjust the adjusting screw (27) until the angle be- tween the saw blade (6) and rotary table (14) is 90°.

• It is not necessary to x this setting because it is maintained by the spring pretension.

• Subsequently check the position of the angle indi- cator. If necessary loosen the pointer (19) using a Philips screwdriver, set to position 0° on the angle scale (18) and re-tighten the retaining screw.

8.3 Cross cut 90° and turntable 0° (Fig.8)

In the case of cutting widths up to approx. 100 mm it is possible to x the traction function of the saw with the set screw (20) in the rear position. In this position the machine can be operated in cross cutting mode. If the cutting width is over 100 mm then it is necessary to ensure that the set screw (20) is loose and the machine head (4) can move. Attention! For 90° cross cuts, the moveable stop rail (16a) must be xed in the inner position.

• Open the set screw (16b) on the moveable stop rail (16a) and push the moveable stop rail (28) inwards.

• The moveable stop rail (16a) must be locked in a po- sition far enough from the inner position that the dis- tance between the stop rail (16a) and the saw blade (6) is no more than 8 mm.

• Before making the cut, check that no collision could oc- cur between the stop rail (16a) and the saw blade (6).

• Tighten the set screw (16b) again.

• Move the machine head (4) to its upper position.

• Take the blade (7) off the inner ange (38) and pull out downwards.

• Carefully clean the ange screw (31), outer ange (32) and inner ange (38).

• Fit and fasten the new saw blade (7) in reverse order.

• Important! The cutting angle of the teeth, in other words the direction of rotation of the saw blade (7) must coincide with the direction of the arrow on the housing.

• Move the guide bar (37) into position and tighten the screw (e) again.

• Before continuing your work make sure that all safety devices are in good working condition.

• Important! Every time that you change the saw blade (7), check to see that it spins freely in the table insert (11) in both perpendicular and 45° angle settings.

• Important! The work to change and align the saw blade (7) must be carried out correctly.

8.11 Using the laser (Fig. 3/19/20)

• To switch on: Move the ON/OFF switch of the laser (34) to the “1” position. A laser line is projected onto the material you wish to process, providing an exact guide for the cut.

• To switch off: Move the ON/OFF switch of the laser (34) to the “0” position.

• Replacing the battery: Switch off the laser (33). Re- move the battery compartment cover (36). Remove the batteries and replace with new batteries (2 x 1.5 Volt Type LR 03 Micro, AAA) Check that the battery terminals are positioned correctly when inserting new batteries. Close the battery compartment (35) again.

8.12 Adjusting the laser (Fig. 21)

If the laser (33) ceases to indicate the correct cutting line, you can readjust the laser. To do so, open the screws (38) and set the laser by moving sideways to that the laser beam strikes the teeth of the saw blade (6).28 GB Electrical connection cables must comply with the ap- plicable VDE and DIN provisions. Only use connection cables with the marking „H05VV-F“. The printing of the type designation on the connection cable is mandatory. AC motor

13. Disposal and recycling

The equipment is supplied in packaging to prevent it from being damaged in transit. The raw materials in this packaging can be reused or recycled. Never place batteries in your household refuse, in re or in water. Batteries should be collected, recycled or disposed of by environment-friendly means. The equipment and its accessories are made of various types of material, such as metal and plastic. Defective components must be disposed of as special waste. Ask your dealer or your local council.

• As the user, you are required to ensure, in consulta- tion with your electric power company if necessary, that the connection point at which you wish to oper- ate the product meets the specied requirements. Important information In the event of an overloading the motor will switch itself off. After a cool-down period (time varies) the motor can be switched back on again. Damaged electrical connection cable The insulation on electrical connection cables is often damaged. This may have the following causes:

• Passage points, where connection cables are passed through windows or doors.

• Kinks where the connection cable has been improp- erly fastened or routed.

• Places where the connection cables have been cut due to being driven over.

• Insulation damage due to being ripped out of the wall outlet.

• Cracks due to the insulation ageing. Such damaged electrical connection cables must not be used and are life-threatening due to the insulation damage. Check the electrical connection cables for damage reg- ularly. Make sure that the connection cable does not hang on the power network during the inspection.

Fault Possible cause Remedy Motor does not work Motor, cable or plug defective, fuses burnt Arrange for inspection of the machine by a spe- cialist. Never repair the motor yourself. Danger! Check fuses and replace as necessary The motor starts up slowly and does not reach operating speed. Voltage too low, coils damaged, capacitor burnt Contact the utility provider to check the voltage. Arrange for inspection of the motor by a special- ist. Arrange for replacement of the capacitor by a specialist Motor makes excessive noise Coils damaged, motor defective Arrange for inspection of the motor by a specialist The motor does not reach its full power. Circuits in the network are overloaded (lamps, other motors, etc.) Do not use any other equipment or motors on the same circuit Motor overheats easily. Overloading of the motor, insufcient cooling of the motor Avoid overloading the motor while cutting, remove dust from the motor in order to ensure optimal cooling of the motor Reduced cutting power when sawing Saw blade too small (ground too much) Readjust end stop of the saw unit Saw cut is rough or wavy Saw blade dull, tooth shape not appropriate for the material thickness Resharpen saw blade and/or use suitable saw blade Workpiece pulls away and/or splinters Excessive cutting pressure and/or saw blade not suitable for use Insert suitable saw blade29FR Table des matières: Page:
