•
Release the (fig.2/Item 13) locking device.
8. ASSEMBLY
Important. Always pull out the power plug before
carrying out maintenance, resetting or
assembly work.
8.1 Transport brace / carry-handle (Fig. 1 / 2)
•
Push saw head (1) down with the handle (2) and pull out
the locking device (13).
•
Slowly raise the saw head (1).
Caution! The resetting spring lifts the saw head (1)
automatically. Therefore, do not simply let go of the handle
(2) after cutting, but allow the saw head (1) to rise slowly
by applying slight counterpressure.
•
Fig.1 shows the saw head (1) in its upper position.
•
For transporting, the saw head (1) should be locked in the
lower position with the locking device (13).
•
The saw is equipped with a carry-handle (8) to make it
easier to transport.
8.2 Vice (Fig. 3)
Every workpiece has to be fastened in the vice (15) before it
is cut.
•
Flip up the top half of the nut (a).
•
Pull out the spindle (5) far enough for the workpiece to be
clamped between the clamping faces (4/7) of the vice (15).
Note:
You do not have to turn the spindle (5)when the
top half of the nut (a) has been flipped up. The spindle
(5) can be pulled out or pushed in to the exact amount
required.
•
Push forward the spindle (5) to the point where the
clamping face (4) touches the workpiece.
•
Flip down the top half of the nut (a) again so that the
spindle (5) and both halves of the nut engage with each
other.
•
Turn the hand crank (6) to safely secure the workpiece in
the vice (15).
8.3 Mitre cuts (Fig. 4)
The vice (15) can be swiveled from 0° to 45° in order to make
mitre cuts.
•
Slacken the two screws (16/17).
•
Turn the clamping face (7) of the vice (15) to the required
angle.
•
Retighten the screws (16/17).
•
When you clamp the workpiece, the front clamping face
(4) will automatically swing into the correct position and
align itself with the workpiece in order to ensure that the
workpiece is safely fastened.
8.4 Adjusting the stop screw (Fig. 5)
The downward movement of the cut-off wheel can be
adjusted with the stop screw (18).
This is necessary to compensate wheel wear—as the cut-off
wheel becomes smaller in diameter it would no longer be able
to cut right through the workpiece.
•
Undo the lock nut (19).
•
Turn the stop screw (18) in or out as required.
•
Lower the saw head (1) to check whether the cut-off wheel
(11) reaches the clamping face (7) of the vice (15 ).
•
Retighten the lock nut (19).
8.5 Replacing the cut-off wheel (Fig. 6 / 7/8)
•
Pull out the power plug.
•
Move the saw head (1) to its upper position of rest.
•
Swing up the adjustable guard (3) for the cut-off wheel
and hook it in place.
•
Open the wing nut (20) and turn the side guard (21) for the
cut-off wheel to the rear.
•
Push the shaft lock (9) to the right and turn the cut-off
wheel (11) slowly with the other hand until the shaft lock
(9) engages.
•
Use the supplied open-ended wrench (23) to turn out the
shaft screw (22) in counterclockwise direction.
•
Remove the shaft screw (22), washer, outer flange (24) and
worn cut-off wheel (11).
•
Install the new cut-off wheel in reverse order and tighten.
•
Important!
The flanges have to be thoroughly cleaned
prior to mounting the cut-off wheel.
•
Note the direction arrow!
•
Use only recommended, reinforced cut-off wheels and
take care to tighten the shaft screw (22) just enough to
hold the wheel (11) securely in place and prevent it from
spinning.
Overtightening the shaft screw (22) may damage the
cut-off wheel.
•
Turn the side guard (21) for the cut-off wheel back to the
front and fasten in place with the thumb screw (20).
•
Unhook the guard for the cut-off wheel, so that the
adjustable guard (3) can be flipped forward again.
9. USING THE CUT OFF SAW
9.1 ON/OFF switch (Fig. 8)
•
Press the safety lock (b), then press the ON/OFF switch (10)
to turn on the saw. Keep the ON/OFF switch (10) pressed
while you are sawing.
•
To deactivate the cut-off machine again, let go of the ON/
OFF switch (10).
9.2 Overload cut-out (Fig. 2)
The motor is protected against overload by an overload cut-
out (14). If the rated current is exceeded, the overload cut-out
(14) switches the appliance off. After a short cooling-off
