high-speed steel blades. Do not use saw blades that
do not conform to the specifications contained in these
instructions.
1. Move the mobile guard B backwards and hold it in
place.
2. To loosen or tighten the screw D with the key sup-
plied with the machine, secure the blade with the aid of a
screwdriver as follows: turn the blade guard to the side and
turn the blade until the hole lies under the saw shoe and
insert a screwdriver in the hole so that the blae does not
move (or place the saw on a piece of wood).
3. Loosen the screw D and remove the setting disc C.
4. Fit the saw blade and tighten with the setting disc C
and the screw D.
5. Before fitting the new blade, make sure the surfa-ces
in contact with the setting discs are clean. The teeth of the
saw should protrude beyond the riving knife E. (The arrow
printed on the fixed guard of the machine indicates the
cutting direction of the teeth).
SETTINGS
1. Cutting depth setting.
For a clean perfect cut, the cutting depth should be
adjusted to the thickness of the wood to be worked on,
so that the saw blade protrudes a tooth’s height from the
material.
To adjust the cutting depth, loosen the wing nut F
and move the machine upwards or downwards. The scale
printed on the parallel guide indicates the cutting depth.
2. Cutting angle setting.
It can cut vertically and with an inclination of up to
45º. The angle is adjusted by loosening the wing nut J and
according the scale printed on the base.
3. Riving knife adjustment.
WARNING!
The riving knife E prevents the blade from
seizing up duriing cutting operations and shold alwyas be
used for safety reasons.
The machine is supplied with the riving knife adjusted.
When fitting a new blade, follow the steps below for
readjustment:
1. Raise the mobile guard B and loosen rhe screw button
D.
2. Move the wedge through the slot to a distance from
the teeth tip and a cutting depth from same of 2 to 3 mm
(máx. 5 mm).
3. Tighten the screw D and the machine is ready to work.
4. Lateral stop adjustment.
For parallel cutting, use the lateral stop H.
Cutting width is adjusted with the scale or according to
the plotting.
Tighten the wing nut G to work with the lateral stop.
5. Cutting indication
Notch K is used as cutting indication with the blade in
horizontal position. It is advisable to perform test cuts.
DUST EXTRACTION
WARNING!
Always make sure that the tool is
switched off and unplugged before fitting or removing any
dust extraction device.
Dust extraction keeps the workplace clean, prevents
dust build-up in the air and facilitates waste elimina-tion.
These saws are equipped with a dust extraction hole
N to which an adapter can be fitted. A universal vacuum
cleaner may be fitted or any dust extraction device.
CAUTION.
Always use a vacuum extractor designed
in accordance with the applicable Guidelines on sawdust
emission. The flexible hoses of conventional vacuum
cleaners fit directly onto the dust extraction nozzle.
NOISE AND VIBRATION
This tool has been designed and made to reduce
noise to a minimum. However, in spite of this, in certain
circumstances the maximum noise level in the place
of work could exceed 85 dBA. In this case, the operator
should wear ear protection.
The machine’s noise and vibration levels, measured in
compliance with EN 60745, usually reach:
Acoustic pressure = 96 dB(A)
Sound-power level = 109 dB(A)
Use ear protection!
Vibration acceleration = 2,9 m/s

WARNING!
The vibration level given in these
instructions has been measured in accordance with
a standardized measurement procedure specified in
EN60745 and can be used to compare devices. Different
uses of the device give rise to different vibration levels and
in many cases they may exceed the values given in these
instructions. It is easy to underestimate the vibration load
if the electrical power tool is used regularly in particular
circumstances.
Note.
If you wish to make an accurate assessment of
the vibration loads experienced during a particular period of
working , you should also take into account the intervening
periods of time when the device is switched off or is running
but is not actually in use. This can result in a much lower
vibration load over the whole of the period of working.

MAINTENANCE AND CARE
WARNING!
Always unplug the machine before
carrying out work on it.
- Checking the saw blade: Deposits of resin and glue
on the saw blade cause inefficient cutting. To avoid them,
always clean the blade immediately after use.
- Inspect the mounting screws: Regularly inspect all
the mounting screws and ensure they are firmly tightened.
Should any screw be loose, tighten it immediately. Failure
to do so could put you at se-rious risk.
- Motor maintenance: Always take the greatest care
over this and make sure that the motor winding is not
damaged and does not become wet with oil or water.
- The vents should always be kept clean and free of
obstacles.
- Clean the machine thoroughly after each use. Blast
the motor regularly with compressed air.
- Check that the mains lead is in good condition. If it is
not, take it to an Official Service Centre to have it replaced.
- Brush replacement: Brushes must be replaced when
length reaches 8 mm or less. To do so, please contact an
authorized after sales service center. We recommend that
every other time you take a tool to an after sales service
center for carbon brushes replacement you also order a
general maintenance (cleaning and lubrication).
- Use only
FELISATTI
accessories and spares. Parts
the changing of which is not covered in this instruction
manual, should be replaced in a
FELISATTI
Official Servi-
ce Centre (See Warranty/Official Service Centre address
leaflet).
