11. Working instructions

After every new setting, we recommend performing a test cut, in order to check the dimensional settings. Wait after the saw has been switched on, until the saw blade has reached full speed, before starting the cut- ting process. Secure long workpieces against tipping at the end of the cutting process (e.g. with roller stand, etc.) Be careful when cutting. Only operate the device with an extraction system. Check and clean the extraction channels at regular in- tervals. Make sure that a suitable saw blade for the material to be cut is selected. Connect a dust collecting device to the electric tool when sawing wood. Do not use saw blades made of high-speed alloy steel (HSS steel). Use a push rod or the handle with wooden push block in order to guide the workpiece safely past the saw blade. Always keep the push stick or wooden push block on the electric tool when not in use.www.scheppach.com

The electrical motor installed is connected and ready for operation. The connection complies with the applicable VDE and DIN provisions. The cus- tomer‘s mains connection as well as the exten- sion cable used must also comply with these reg- ulations. Damaged electrical connection cable The insulation on electrical connection cables is often damaged. This may have the following causes:

  • Pressure 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 regularly. Ensure that the connection cables are dis- connected from electrical power when checking for damage. Electrical connection cables must comply with the ap- plicable VDE and DIN provisions. Only use connection cables of the same designation. The printing of the type designation on the connection cable is mandatory. AC motor:
  • The mains voltage must be 230 V~
  • Extension cables up to 25 m long must have a cross-section of 1.5 square millimetres.
  • If narrow workpieces are cut off by the cut, the feed is carried out in the tool area only with the right hand or with the aid of a push stick.
  • If there is a risk of the workpiece jamming between the circular saw blade, riving knife and stop, the stop must be retracted to the centre of the saw blade or a short auxiliary fence must be used.
  • In the pictures, the upper suction hood was only in- dicated, or in individual cases omitted, in order to show the work process or device more clearly.
  • The upper suction hood is required for all operations shown. Cutting narrower workpieces, Fig. 25 Longitudinal cuts of workpieces with a width of less than 120 mm must always be made with the aid of a push stick. Push stick is included in the scope of delivery. Replace a worn or damaged push stick immediately.
