Felisatti NTF250/1200ST, Operating Instructions Manual

support and prevent the blade from coming into 

contact with the turntable.

WARNING!

 After this operation has been comp-leted, 

make sure that the blade has not come into contact 

with the turntable and that the self-locking nut is 

tightly screwed down.

5.3  REGULATION  OF  THE  SPLITTING  WEDGE 

(fig. 13)

WARNING! 

The splitting wedge must never be 

thicker than the width blade cutting width and never 

thinner than the blade body.

When using the upper table, the splitting wedge 

prevents the stopping of the blade caused by the 

excessive pressure of the surfaces during cutting. 

Whenever such regulation is necessary, proceed as

follows: 

- Remove the upper protective casing over the 

blade unit.

- Remove the upper table.

- Using a 10 mm Allen wrench, unscrew the 

hexagonal head screw 

A (fig.13)

.

- Adjust the splitting wedge until it stands approx. 5 

mm `from the blade and 5 mm lower than the blade.

- Tighten all the screws again and lower the 

protective casing.

5.4 REGULATION OF THE BLADE UNIT 

COMPARED TO THE WORK SURFACE

90° regulation

- Lower the head of the machine and lock it in place 

using the corresponding pin 

F

 (fig. 1).

- Position the square 

A

 as shown in figure 14-b and 

adjust the squaring using the dowel C (fig. 12).

5.5 REGULATION OF THE TURNTABLE (fig. 14)

0° regulation

- Lower the head of the machine and lock it in place 

using the corresponding pin 

F

 (fig. 1).

- Position the turntable on “0”.

- Unscrew the support screws.

- Position the square 

A

 between the blade and 

support

as shown in the figure.

- Keeping the turntable positioned on “0”, adjust the

support using the corresponding dowels C until a 

reading of 90° is shown on the square.

- Tighten all the support screws unscrewed 

previously.

5.6 REGULATION OF VERTICAL SURFACE 

STROKE END (0° - 45°) (fig. 15)

- Lower the head of the machine and lock it in place 

using the corresponding pin 

F

 (fig.1)

- Position the turntable on “0” and lock it in place; 

remove the stroke end raised section 

G

  (fig.  1) 

(when present).

- Position the head of the machine at 45° by 

unscrewing the knob 

E

 (fig. 11) and then position 

the square 

A

 as shown in figure 15.

- Regulate to 45° using the dowel 

B

.

5.7 REGULATION OF HORIZONTAL SURFACE

STROKE END (-45° 0° +45°)

Adjust the screw 

A

(fig. 11)

 to create a stroke end 

point for the turntable when the 45° reading on the 

turntable matches the same reference index on the 

base. Repeat the operation at the symmetrical 45° 

reading with the screw on the opposite side of the 

base.

6 OPERATION AND USE

6.1 CUTTING SPEED

The type of material and types of cut possible with 

the series of mitre saws is vast indeed. The operator 

must select the blade to use on the basis of the 

material, the cutting speed, and advance of the blade. 

Reference to the values above are provided in the 

table.

6.2 CUTTING WITH THE BLADE AT 90° AND

TURNTABLE ROTATED (fig. 4)

(RI and NTF305 version)

- Release the turntable 

H (fig. 1)

 by keeping the lever 

N (fig. 1)

 pressed down – Rotate the turntable and 

select the desired cutting angle using the graduated 

scale  and  then  release  the  lever  B.  Note:  pre-fixed 

cutting angles are available (0° ±15° ±22°30’ ±30° 

±45°)  at  which  the  turntable  can  be  locked.  We 

recommend locking the turntable into position with 

the use of the locking knob 

L (fig. 1)

.

(RP version)

- Release the turntable 

H  (fig.  1)

 using the locking 

knob 

L

 - Rotate the turntable and select the desired 

cutting angle using the graduated scale.

Note: thanks to the “CLIC-CLAC” function, the 

turntable automatically locks itself into place at 

various  pre-fixed  cutting  angles  (0°  ±15°  ±22°30’ 

±30° ±45°). After locking into position, the application 

of a slight pressure is sufficient to rotate the turntable. 

Lock the turntable into place using the locking knob 

L 

(fig. 1)

 prior to cutting.

6.3 CUTTING WITH THE BLADE INCLINED AND

THE TURNTABLE POSITIONED AT 0° (fig. 5)

WARNING!

 Remove the support stroke-end raised 

section G (fig. 1) (when present) before proceeding 

to the operation below.

- Release the blade unit by unscrewing the knob 

E (fig. 11) 

– Rotate the blade unit and select the 

desired cutting angle using the graduated scale, 

and then lock into the knob 

E

 into position again. 

WARNING!

 Make sure that the support has been 

securely fastened with the use of the knob 

E (fig. 11) 

when making inclined cuts (fig.5-6).

6.4 USE AS MITRE SAW

WARNING!

 - Make sure that the switch key B (fig. 2)

is in the release position (protruding).

- Bring the upper table to its maximum permissible 

height and make sure that the blade is completely 

protected by the upper casing – Fasten the material 

to be cut securely to the cutting surface.

WARNING!

 Make sure that the blade is completely 

protected by the upper casing.

WARNING

 - The use of the clamp is absolutely 

required whenever aluminium sections must be cut.

WARNING

 - Excessive pressure on the handgrip
