Ensure that the mains voltage is correct!
The voltage of the power source must agree with the
value given on the nameplate of the machine. Ma-
chines designated for 230 V can also be operated with
220 V.
Switching On/Off
To
switch on
the machine, press the on/off switch
2
.
Lock
the depressed on/off switch
2
by pressing the
lock-on button
3
.
To
switch off
the machine, release the on/off switch
2
or push and then release it.
Continuously Variable Stroke Rate Adjustment
Light application of pressure on the on/off switch
2
re-
sults in a low stroke rate. Increasing pressure results in
a higher stroke rate.
Stroke Rate Preselection
The required stroke rate can be preselected (also dur-
ing operation) using the thumbwheel
1
.
The required stroke rate is dependent on the material
and the working conditions and can be determined by
a practical trial.
Sawdust Blower (PST 750 PE/PST 850 PE)
With the air stream of the sawdust blowing device
8
,
the cutting line can be kept free of dust.
Blower effect switched on:
For working with wood, plastic and
other materials that produce large
amounts of dust.
Blower effect switched off:
For working with metals and when
cooling or lubricating agents are
used.
The pendulum action that is adjustable in four steps
makes possible the optimum adaptation of cutting
speed and performance as well as cutting pattern to
the material being worked.
The pendulum action can be set with the adjustment
lever
7
(also when the machine is running).
It is recommended that:
–
The finer and cleaner the cut edge should be, the
smaller the pendulum action step selected should
be or the pendulum action switched off.
–
The pendulum action be switched off for working
with thin materials such as sheet metal, for exam-
ple.
–
The small pendulum action step be used in hard
materials such as steel, for example.
–
In soft materials and for cuts in the direction of the
grain, the maximum pendulum action be used.
The optimal setting can be determined in practice.
PST 650 PE/PST 750 PE
Loosen the screw
17
and slide the base plate
6
for-
ward somewhat in the direction of the saw blade. The
base plate can be swung to both sides by 45°.
Any cutting angle can be set exactly with a
protractor
18
.
For the setting of precise bevel angles, the base plate
has a scale
16
with detent points in 15° steps. Slide
the rotated base plate in the direction of the blow-out
opening until it latches.
After adjusting, retighten the screw
17
.
PST 850 PE
Swing the clamping lever
5
out of the base plate
6
and
loosen the base plate by turning the clamping lever
anti-clockwise.
Then slide the base plate
6
somewhat in the direction
of the saw blade. The base plate can be swung to
both sides by 45°.
Any cutting angle can be set exactly with a
protractor
18
.
For the setting of precise bevel angles, the base plate
has a scale
16
with detent points in 15° steps. Slide
the rotated base plate in the direction of the blow-out
opening until it latches.
Retighten the clamping lever
5
by turning clockwise
and swing back into the base plate. Take care that the
clamping lever is completely sunk into the base
plate
6
.
