a jammed saw blade.
Large
plates can bend under their
own weight. Plates must be
supported on both sides, not
only near the sawing gap, but
also at the edge.
e) Do not use any blunt or
damaged saw blades. Saw
blades with blunt or improperly
aligned teeth cause increased
friction, saw blade jamming
and spring-back due to an
excessively tight sawing gap.
f) Before sawing, fix the cutting
depth and cutting angle settings.
If the settings change during
sawing, the saw blade can jam,
resulting in spring-back.
g) Be particularly careful when
sawing existing walls or other
areas where you cannot see
what is there. During sawing,
the cutting saw blade can jam
in hidden objects and cause
spring-back.
FUNCTION OF THE BOTTOM
PROTECTIVE HOOD
a) Before each use, check whether
the bottom protective hood
closes properly. Do not use the
saw if the bottom protective
hood does not move freely or
close right away. Never clamp
or bind the bottom protective
hood in an open position.
If the
saw accidentally falls to the
ground, the bottom protective
hood may be bent. Open the
protective hood using the pull
lever and make sure that it
moves freely and does not touch
the saw blade or other parts at
all cutting angles and depths.
b) Check the function of the
springs for the bottom protective
hood. If the bottom protective
hood and spring do not work
properly, have the saw serviced
before using it.
Damaged parts,
sticky deposits or accumulations
of chips cause the bottom
protective hood to work with a
delay.
c) Only open the bottom protective
hood by hand for special
cuts, such as “plunge and
angular cuts”. Open the bottom
protective hood with the pull
lever and release it as soon
as the saw blade cuts into the
workpiece.
For all other sawing,
the bottom protective hood
should work automatically.
d) Do not place the saw on the
work bench or the floor if the
bottom protective hood is not
covering the saw blade.
An
unprotected saw blade that
is still running will move the
saw in the direction opposite
of the cutting direction and
cut whatever is in its way. Pay
attention to how long the saw
blade remains running.
