Parkside PKGS 1400 CROSSCUT MITRE SAW, Руководство по эксплуатации и технике безопасности

Страница: 7 / 10

OPERATION
Take note of the mains voltage. The voltage must agree with that shown on the identification plate (equipment shown as 230 V can also
be used with 220 V).
Press the switch to start the machine, before sliding the safety lever (16) to the right and bringing down the cutting head . After
completing the first cut release the switch and wait until the saw blade has come to a halt before moving the cutting head into the open,
raised position again.
Sometimes the spindle bolt can become loose due to the braking moment. This means you must check the spindle bolt frequently and retighten
it when required.
SUPPORTING AND TRANSPORTING THE MACHINE
If you have not mounted the machine on a workbench, pull the rear support stirrup out as far as it will go. This will ensure that the
machine will not overturn if the cutting head springs back into the raised position.
The fully extended support stirrup can also be used as a carrying handle for transporting the machine.
Always carry or lift the machine either by the base or by the extended support stirrup , and never by the actuating handle as this can lead
to misalignment. When transporting the machine always secure the locking button by engaging it when the cutting head is in the lowered
position.
MITRE CUTS – ROTATING THE SAW TABLE
The PKGS 1400 allows you to make angled cuts (mitre cuts) from 0° (90° / straight cross cut) to 50° to the left or right. First release the stop
setting handle
by one or two turns. By pressing the control lever release the stop. Whilst pressing the control lever , turn the saw
table to the left or right into the desired position and then release the control lever again. The PKGS 1400 has the most common settings
0°, 15°, 22.5°, 30° and 45° pre-set by the use of easily engaged fixed stops.
Before cutting make sure to secure the stop setting handle
in order to lock the stop setting.
CROSS CUTS – TILTING THE CUTTING HEAD
The PKGS 1400 allows you to make cross cuts at angles of between 90° and 45°.
Release the quick-set angle adjuster
and with the help of an angle gauge set the angle for your cut. After you have set the angle
and before you carry out the cut, be sure to retighten the quick-set angle adjuster in order to lock the stop setting.
COMPOUND CUTS
To carry out a compound cut you have to incline the cutting head and rotate the saw table (see the sections "Mitre cuts"
and "Cross cuts"). First select the tilt and rotation angles and then secure all the stop settings. Position yourself to the left of the saw blade
(see Fig.
).
We recommend in general that you always carry out a test cut. In this way you can satisfy yourself that the angle is right and the material
can be cut correctly.
