DUST EXHAUSTION
(OPTIONAL)
The mitre saw can be connected to an aspirator or a
dust collection bag by means of the exhaust manifold
22
(Fig.4)
.
The aspirator pipe or the bag sleeve must be secured to
the manifold by means of a band. Users are reminded to
empty the bag or aspirator container and to clean the fi lter
regularly.
The air output speed must be equivalent to at least 100
Nm
3
/h.
For example, “dustbin” type aspirators are suitable.
The dust of many kind of timbers is dangerous for the human
health of the user, and therefore all possible measures
must be adopted to avoid the environmental dispersal, by
aspirating it during cutting operations.
You can install a dust collection bag on the rear junction by
means of a fastener. An external vacuum device for dust
collection can be connected to the same rear junction.
However, it is recommended to use a respiratory
protection.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Before any adjustment, repair,
maintenance work and before replacing the blade,
switch off the machine and disconnect it from
the power supply by removing the plug from the
socket.
In case you fi nd out any damage to the protection
devices or irregularities while processing or
checking the machine, you must get it repaired
immediately by qualifi ed persons.
Before use check that the protection and safety
devices are perfectly effi cient. After carrying out
the work, make a general cleaning of the machine
by removing dust and chips.
DO NOT USE COMPRESSED AIR JETS TO CLEAN THE
MACHINE!
In case of intensive use of the machine, you should
periodically carry out some tasks:
1- Daily
Suck up the saw dust that can pile up inside the machine
and clean the ventilation inlets of the engine.
In case of use, empty the dust bag and clean it.
Be sure that the protective cap can slide freely.
Be sure that the saw blade can be raised and lowered
freely.
2. Monthly
Check the noise of the engine and the consumption of the
carbon brushes
(Fig. 19)
periodically.
Check that the supply cable is not damaged.
CHECK AND REPLACEMENT OF CARBON
BRUSHES
WARNING: Before checking the carbon brushes,
disconnect the machine from the power supply.
The life of the carbon brushes can vary, and it depends
on the motor working load. If the tool is new or after the
replacement of the carbon brushes, check the carbon
brushes after the fi rst 50 hours of use. After the fi rst check,
you must control the carbon brushes every 10 hours of use
until it is necessary to replace them.
The housing of the carbon brushes
(Fig. 19)
are positioned
on each side of the motor. Change both the carbon brushes
if the carbon of one of the brushes is worn and it is smaller
than 5 mm, or in case a spring or a wire is burnt or damaged.
If the carbon brushes are still usable after the inspection,
re-assemble them on their original position.
