Noise level parameters

According to EN 23748 for the acoustic power level or EN 31202 (error tolerance k3 calculated according to appendix A.2 for EN 31204) for the sound pressure level in a place of work based on the noise emission value based on the working conditions listed in ISO 7904 appendix A amount to the following:

Acoustic power level in dB

when idling Lwa = 105 dB(A)

in operation Lwa = 107 dB(A)

Sound pressure level on working site in dB

when idling Lwa = 95 dB(A)

in operation Lwa = 97 dB(A)

The values listed are emission values and do not necessarily correspond to the assured workplace values.

Although there is a correlation between emission and immission levels, this does not give a certain indication as to whether additional safety measures are necessary or not. Factors in a given

workplace can influence the immission level, such as the properties of the workroom, other noise sources, for example the number of machines and other kinds of work going on nearby. Reliable working values can vary from country to country. This information should nonetheless allow the user to evaluate dangers and risks.

- Danger due to electrical current when electrical connective cables that do not conform to

safety regulations are used.

• In addition, in spite of all care, other, non-obvious residual risks remain.
• Residual risks can be minimized when the "safety information," and the "appropriate use" chapters as well as the operating instructions as a whole are followed.

Transportation

In order to transport the circular jig-saw, lock in the jig block. (Fig. 3)

Push the transport handle into the machine body and turn the handle (Fig. 2) (Secured by the screw head in the transport handle).

The machine can now be picked up by the transport handle to lift and move it.

Start-up

• Before start up, follow all safety instructions.
• All protective and assisting equipment must be assembled.
• Only carry out modifications, adjustment, measurement and cleaning work on the machine when the motor is turned off. Pull out the plug and wait until the rotating parts have come to a stop.
• The saw is constructed for cross-section sawing for fire wood with a maximum length of 1 meter and a minimum diameter of 60~mm .
• Regardless of the diameter of the wood, only one piece can be put on the jack at a time.

Technical check before beginning operation

• Put the wood in the jack.
• With both hands on the handle of the jack, swing it to the saw blade.
• Then bring the jack back into the starting position.
• Do not hold the wood that is to be sawed in place with your hands.

Maintenance

• Only do maintenance, overhaul and cleaning work or attend to malfunctions when the motor is turned off (pull out the plug!).

Changing the saw blade

• The saw blade can only be changed when the machine is positioned for cutting fire wood.

• Open the side lid.

• Push the adjustment rod (Fig. 5 position1) though the lower saw blade protector to adjust the saw blade.

• Loosen the saw blade with the jaw spanner (Fig. 5 position 2) that comes with the machine.
• Remove the saw blade flange and change the saw blade.
• Assemble the new saw blade and tighten it well.

Electrical connections

• Plug in the machine to a source of electrical current with a CEE plug. The input cable must be secured to 16 A.
• Using the main switch, turn on the machine: the saw starts up.
• Check the rotational direction! If necessary, change the polarity. (Fig. 4)
• When it is switched off, the saw is decelerated within 10 seconds.

The installed electrical motor is ready for operation. The connection corresponds to the appropriate VDE and DIN regulations. The connection to the source of power by the customer as well as any extension cables used must also correspond to these regulations or the local EVU (European Association for Accident Research and Analysis) regulations.

Motor-braking assistance

The brakes decelerate the drive motor of the saw within 10 seconds. If braking takes longer than 10 seconds, the machine may no longer be operated, since the brakes are defective. The machine must then be immediately disconnected from a source of electrical currency. Only an electrician can deal with this problem.

Operating mode/ Duty cycle

The electrical motor conceived for a duty cycle of S6 - 40%.

S6 = continuous operation with intermittent load

40% = based on 10 min. with 4 min. load, 6 min idling

If the motor is overtaxed it automatically shuts down since there is a thermostat coil in the motor coils. Following a cool-down phase (varying length of time) the motor can be restarted.

Damaged electrical cables

There is often damage to the insulation on electrical cables.

Possible causes:

• Pressure points, when cables are led through window or door cracks.
• Bending points, due to incorrect fastening or cable positioning.
• Damage to the insulation due to ripping the lead out of the wall plug.
• Cracks due to insulation aging.
• Do not use defective electrical cables and they are life-threatening due to defective insulation!

Check electrical cables regularly for damage. Make sure that when the cables are being checked they are not plugged into the source of current. Electrical connections must conform to the appropriate VDE and DIN regulations as well as the local EVE regulations. Only use cables of the type H 07 RN. A label with the type is required to be on the cable.
