Operation
Starting Operation
Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage of the pow-
er source must agree with the voltage specified on the
nameplate of the machine. Power tools marked with
230 V can also be operated with 220 V.
Switching On and Off
To
start
the machine, push the On/Off switch
1
forwards.
To
lock
the On/Off switch
1
, additionally push down the front
of the switch.
To
switch off
the machine, release the On/Off switch
1
. When
the On/Off switch is locked, press on the rear of the switch
and then release it.
To save energy, only switch the power tool on when using it.
Working Advice
Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains
plug.
Apply the power tool to the workpiece only when switched on.
Guide the power tool at an angle of 80 to 90° to the surface of
the sheet metal and do not tilt it to the side.
Guide the machine evenly and with light feed in the cutting di-
rection. Excessive feed significantly reduces the service life of
the saw blade and can cause damage to the power tool.
When cutting curves, make sure not to tilt the power tool lat-
erally and work with low feed rate only.
Maximum Steel Sheet Cutting Capacity
The maximum steel sheet cutting capacity d
max
depends on
the strength properties of the material to be cut.
The machine allows for cutting of metal sheet to the following
thicknesses:
Adjusting Cutter Clearance a
Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains
plug.
The cutter clearance
a
(gap between the
cutters) depends on the sheet thickness
d
max
to be cut.
For softer or more ductile materials, the clearance
a
must be
decreased; for harder or more brittle materials, increased.
