Frequently Asked Questions - PS 520E Alpha Tools

How to replace the saw blade on the PS 520E?

Unplug the saw. Loosen the two screws on the slide using the hex key. Slide the blade into the guide groove until it stops. Make sure the teeth are facing in the cutting direction. Tighten the screws.

How to adjust the saw speed?

Turn the knurled screw on the ON/OFF switch. Turn in the 'PLUS' direction to increase strokes per minute, and in the 'MOINS' direction to decrease them.

How to make a bevel cut?

Loosen the two screws under the saw base. Tilt the base to the desired angle (max 45°). Marks at 15°, 30°, and 45° are indicated. Tighten the screws.

How to use the continuous operation mode?

Push the ON/OFF switch forward and lock it with the locking button. To stop, push and release the switch.

What is the maximum cutting depth for wood?

The maximum cutting depth in wood is 65 mm.

How to connect a vacuum cleaner?

The saw is equipped with a vacuum cleaner connection at the rear. Connect your vacuum cleaner hose directly or via a specific adapter provided by the vacuum cleaner manufacturer.

What safety accessories are included?

The saw comes with safety glasses (eye protection). It is recommended to also wear gloves and ear protection.

How to make a plunge cut?

This technique is only possible in chipboard or wood panels. Place the base firmly against the workpiece, tilt the saw and lower it slowly into the material without drilling a pilot hole.

What to do if the saw blade gets stuck during cutting?

Immediately release the switch. Unplug the saw. Check that the blade is securely tightened and in good condition. Use a blade suitable for the material. Do not force the feed.

General safety and accident prevention regulations

To work safely with this machine and to prevent accidents it is imperative to read the following safety regulations and operating instructions in full and to put all the information into practice.

● Always check the machine, the power cable and the plug before use. Only ever use the machine if it is in perfect, undamaged condition. Damaged parts are to be repaired or replaced immediately by a qualified electrician.
● Always pull the plug out of the power socket before carrying out any work on the machine, before changing the tool and in periods of non-use.
● Always run the power cable away from the back of the machine to guard it from damage.
- For outdoors work use only suitably approved extension cables with a minimum conductor cross section of 1.5mm^2 . The plug connectors must have earthing contacts and be rain-water-proof.
- Keep the machine in a safe place and out of the reach of children.
● Always wear goggles, safety gloves and ear muffs when grinding, brushing and cutting. Wear a breathing mask on dusty jobs.
● Never leave any tool keys or adjustment spanners in position on the machine. Before switching on, check that all keys and adjustment spanners have been removed.
- Secure the workpiece (with a clamp) so that it cannot slip.
- It is imperative to use a dust extractor when working on stone (cutting or grinding). Make sure the dust extractor is approved for stone dust.
- It is prohibited to use the machine on asbestos materials. Please note the accident prevention regulations in force in your country.

● Use only original spare parts.
● Repairs are to be carried out by qualified electricians only.
● The level of noise at the workplace may exceed 85 dB(A). In this case you will need to introduce noise protection measures for the user. The noise produced by this electric tool is measured in accordance with IEC 59 CO 11, IEC 704,
DIN 45635 Part 21, NFS 31-031 (84/537/EEC).
● Make sure of your footing. Avoid abnormal working positions.
- Keep your electric tool out of the rain. Never use electric tools in wet or damp conditions, and never use them near inflammable liquids.
● Never carry the machine by its power cable. Keep the power cable safe from damage. Oil, solvent and sharp edges can damage cables.
- Keep your workplace tidy
● Make sure the power switch is off before inserting the plug in the socket.
● Wear suitable clothing. Never wear loose-fitting clothes or jewelry. Use a hair-net on long hair.
- For your own safety, use only the manufacturer's accessories and attachments.
- Use only sharp saw blades that are in perfect condition. Replace bent and cracked saw blades immediately.
● After switching off the jigsaw, do not press against the side of the blade to bring it to a halt.
● Always cut at a steady rate of progress. This will prevent accidents and prolong the life of your jigsaw and the blade.

Operating instructions for the electronic jigsaw

STARTING UP

Instant response operation (Figure 2) Switching on: Press the On/Off switch Switching off: Release the On/Off switch

Continuous operation

Switching on: Press the On/Off switch, keep pres sed and lock with the locking button Switching off: Press the On/Off switch and release

Electronic speed control setting (Figure 3)

Using the knurled screw on the On/Off switch you can pre-set any speed. Turn the knurled screw in PLUS direction for a higher speed and turn it in MINUS direction for a lower speed. The ideal cutting rate depends on the specific material and working conditions.

The general rules for tool speed in cutting operations apply.

Changing the saw blade (Figure 1)

Switch off the jigsaw and remove the plug from the power socket before changing the blade or carrying out any other work on the jigsaw.

Use the supplied hexagon-socket spanner to undo the two screws on the ram (Figure 1). Slide the saw blade into the guide slot and up to the stop between the piston rod and the retention clip. Use the supplied hexagon-socket spanner to tighten the two screws. The teeth of the saw blade must face in cutting direction. Make sure that the saw blade sits properly in the guide slot of the ram and roller.

Adjusting the base

(for mitering and sawing near edges, Figure 4) For mitre and bevel cuts you can swivel the base by up to 45° in either direction after undoing the two screws on the bottom. The angles 15°, 30° and 45° are marked but you can adjust the saw to any angle between these markings as required.

To adjust the cutting angle, undo the two screws (Figure 4) until you can just about move the blade. Adjust to the required angle and re-tighten the two screws.

To enable you to saw right up to the edge, the base can be pushed backward. To do so, undo the two screws underneath (Figure 4) and push the base to the back. Re-tighten the two screws.

Dust extraction

The jigsaw is equipped with a dust extractor socket. Any vacuum cleaner can be connected to the socket at the rear of the jigsaw. If you require a special adapter, please contact the manufacturer of your vacuum cleaner.
