-
Do not work on workpieces which are too small or
too large for the capability of the machine.
-
Whenever possible, secure the workpiece against
slipping, e.g. with screw clamps.
-
Only
use original
MAFELL
saw chains.
Commercial saw chains are not suitable for this
machine. After every chain change, check the
correct chain tension.
-
The riving knife/splitter 4 (Fig. 1) including the
guard plate for the bottom chain deflection 6 may
not be removed.
-
The machine is a one-man tool and may only be
used for work during which the base plate 3 serves
as workplate.
-
Prior to carrying out any work, check whether the
tank contains oil for the chain lubrication and
whether the chain lubrication is working (see
section 4.4).
-
Keep a firm hold on the machine already before
switching it on and support it. At the same time, rail
and chain must stand unobstructed. Only begin
cutting the workpiece when the saw chain has
achieved its full speed. Pay attention to a secure
footing.
-
The switch may not be wedged in ON position.
-
Never reach below the base plate or into the chip
ejector during sawing.
-
Never transport the machine with running saw
chain and pay attention that, except for the
workpiece, the running chain does not come in
contact with adjacent objects.
-
Never remove cover 12 (Fig. 1) covering the chain
pinion with the machine running and only for a tool
change and refit immediately afterwards.
-
The machine can be connected to an extraction
with a diameter of 54 mm (2 1/8 in.) (outside) or 49
mm (1 15/16 in.) (inside). When working without
extraction, work may only be carried out outdoors
or in adequately ventilated rooms.
-
Once adopted, never change a cutting direction by
force. The saw must be guided such that the
pressure does not bring the chain to a stop.
-
Examine the workpiece for foreign objects. Never
attempt to cut into nails or other metal objects.
-
Always lead the connecting cable away from the
machine to the rear while sawing.
-
Immediately pull the power plug in case of
damaged or severed connecting cables.
-
Match the feed speed during sawing to the
material thickness. Feeding too fast results in an
overload of the motor, rough saw cuts and faster
blunting of the saw chain.
-
Only remove the machine from the workpiece if the
saw chain has come to a standstill.
Instructions on service and maintenance:
-
Regular cleaning of the machine, in particular the
setting mechanisms for tilting the guides for the
parallel stop and the enclosure of the top and
bottom chain deflection, constitutes an important
safety factor. Pull the plug before starting this
work.
-
Only original MAFELL spare parts and accessories
may be used. Otherwise, the manufacturer will not
accept any warranty claims and cannot be held
liable.
4 Setting / Adjustment
4.1 Mains connection
Prior to commissioning make sure that the supply
voltage complies with the operating voltage stated on
the machine's rating plate.
The machine must be connected to the three phase
network. Because of the machine's internal wiring,
each of the two motors is supplied with 230 V~.
Ensure that the assignment of the socket outlet is
carried out according to standard. A wrong
assignment may lead to destruction of the electronic
system. The machine is totally insulated, therefore
the earth contact inside the plug was removed.
