USER MANUAL SBG 4910 Flex

Safety instructions t^okfkd> Keep children away from the power tool. If the power cord is damaged while the power tool is being used, do not touch the power cord. Immediately pull out the mains plug. Never use a power tool which has a defective power cord. Repairs such as replacing a damaged cord, may be carried out by an authorised customer service centre only. Before performing any work on the power tool, pull out the mains plug. Always lay the power cord to the rear away from the machine and keep away from the work area. When using the power tool, wear protective equipment: close-fitting clothing, goggles, ear protection, protective gloves. If required, also wear a hair net! Never cut a workpiece held in your hand. Always clamp the workpiece securely in the vice. Remove cut-offs and swarf from the work area. The machine must be switched off! Before use, check machine and saw band for damage. Use sharp, faultless saw bands only. Immediately replace blunt or defective saw bands. Keep hands away from the work area while the machine is running. Switch on saw band before guiding towards the workpiece. If the saw band is blocked, switch off the machine immediately. Wait until the power tool comes to a standstill before pulling it out of the workpiece. Do not load the power tool to such an extent that it stops. If power tools are used outdoors, connect via a residual-current-operated circuit- breaker (tripping current max. 30 mA). a^j^db=ql=molmboqv> The mains voltage and the voltage specifications on the rating plate (5) must correspond. Do not use lubricants or coolants.

Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments or changing accessories. Accidental starting of the power tool is a cause of some accidents. Properly assemble the working stand before mounting the tool. Proper assembly is important to prevent risk of collapse. Securely fasten the power tool to the working stand before use. Power tool shifting on the working stand can cause loss of control. Place the working stand on a solid, flat and level surface. When the working stand can shift or rock, the power tool or workpiece cannot be steadily and safely controlled. Do not overload the working stand or use as ladder or scaffolding. Overloading or standing on the working stand causes the stand to be “top-heavy” and likely to tip over. Do not install or use an other power tool to the working stand.SBG 4910

Noise and Vibration The noise and vibration values have been determined in accordance with EN 60745. The A evaluated noise level of the power tool is typically (at no load): – Sound pressure level: 82 dB(A); – Sound power level: 93 dB(A); – Uncertainty: K = 3 dB. Total vibration value when sawing steel tube: – Emission value: a

– Uncertainty: K = 1.5 m/s

The vibration emission level given in this infor- mation sheet has been measured in accor- dance with a standardised test given in EN 60745 and may be used to compare one tool with another. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure. The declared vibration emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for different applications, with different accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration emission may differ. This may significantly increase the exposure level over the total working period. An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also take into account the times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period. Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the hands warm, organisation of work patterns. `^rqflk> tÉ~ê=É~ê=éêçíÉÅíáçå=~í=~=ëçìåÇ=éêÉëëìêÉ= ~ÄçîÉ=UR=Ç_E^FK Technical specifications Metal band saw SBG 4910 Saw band Bi-metallic Band length Band width Band thickness

Compare the mains voltage with the specifications on the rating plate (5). Assembling the metal band saw: Place dovetail guide (9) in the uppermost position. Insert saw into the dovetail guide. Tighten wing nut (11) to secure the saw. Fold saw down. Transport and installation Lift the machine onto the machine table (17).

Loosen the clamping lever (22) and feed the saw band guide (21) as far as possible along the workpiece. Tighten the clamping lever (22).

After loosening the 4 screws, remove the protective housing from the saw frame. Release saw belt tension by swivelling the tension lever (10) clockwise. Slacken the hexagon-head nuts a (A/F 10) on both outer saw band guides. Rotate screw b (A/F 10) slightly in an anti- clockwise direction until the saw band is released. First take the saw band off the guide rollers and then out of the guides.SBG 4910

Insert the new saw band: First into the guides, then onto the guide rollers. Observe the direction of cut! Tension saw band (see page 19). Align the saw band guide by rotating the screw (A/F 10) slightly in a b clock- wise direction until the guide just touches the saw band. klqb> qÜÉ=ë~ï=Ä~åÇ=ÖìáÇÉë=ãìëí=ÄÉ=~ÇàìëíÉÇ=ìåíáä= íÜÉó=äáÖÜíäó=íçìÅÜ=íÜÉ=ë~ï=Ä~åÇ=~åÇ=êçí~íÉ= ~ë íÜÉ=ë~ï=Ä~åÇ=é~ëëÉë=íÜêçìÖÜ=íÜÉã>= qÜÉó ãìëí=åçí=ÄÉ=ÄäçÅâÉÇ> Tighten the hexagon-head nuts a (A/F 10).

Make three cuts into solid material See section “Sawing with machine table”. Start by applying very little pressure on the handle for the first cut, increase the pressure slightly for the subsequent cuts. For the last cut the cutting time should not be less than 4 minutes! A correctly run-in saw band produces a higher cutting quality and has a longer service life.
