Felisatti NTF250/1200ST, Operating Instructions Manual

and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power 

tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. 

Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained 

users.

e)  Maintain  power  tools.  Check  for  misalignment 

or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and 

any other condition that may affect the power tools 

operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired 

before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly 

maintained power tools.

f)  Keep  cutting  tools  sharp  and  clean.  Properly 

maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are 

less likely to bind and are easier to control.

g)  Use  the  power  tool,  accessories  and  tool  bits 

etc., in accordance with these instructions and in 

the manner intended for the particular type of power 

tool, taking into account the working conditions and 

the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for 

operations different from intended could result in a 

hazardous situation.

5) SERVICE

a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair

person using only identical replacement parts. 

This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is 

maintained.

4 INSTALLATION

4.1 PACKING AND UNPACKING

The mitre saw, complete with its accessories and

instructions for use fits inside a package and is locked 

in position for transport.

WARNING!

 During transport the upper of the blade 

must be covered by the upper protection or set in its 

lowest position.

WARNING!

 Before using the tool, release the knob A 

and the respective self-locking nut (fig.12) previously 

locked in position for the transport of the mitre saw 

(see also Point 5.2).

4.2 LIFTING

The mitre saw must be lifted using the equipment and

safety measures adequate for the operation. The 

mitre saw can be moved manually, provided that at 

least 2 people are assigned to the task. Install the 

mitre saw on a solid and sufficiently level surface at 

the ergonomically correct working height.

WARNING! 

Never lift the machine up by its protective 

casings.

4.3 INSTALLATION

Room conditions, such as temperature, humidity, 

illumination, general cleanliness and the correct 

position of the mitre saw are all very important for 

the safety of the operators and the performance of 

the mitre saw itself. Also make sure that the tool is 

securely fastened to the work bench.

4.4 ELECTRIC CONNECTION

Before connecting the machine to the power mains,

make sure that the electric system corresponds to the

regulations in force in the nation of use (with the 

presence of a ground system, thermal cutout, 

overload cutout) and that the voltage and frequency 

correspond to the indications provided on Plate A (fig. 

1). Before using any extension cables, make sure that 

the section of the cable is adequate to its length and 

that a grounding connection is provided. Whenever 

coiled extension cables are used, make sure that 

they are completely uncoiled in order to prevent the 

risk of overheating.

WARNING!

The starting switch on these tools is 

provided with a LOCK in “ON” button that permits 

prolonged use (only when the tool is used as a 

disk saw, however) without requiring the starting 

switch to be pressed constantly. Before plugging 

the tool plug into the socket, make sure that the 

starting  switch  is  set  in  the  unlocked  position. 

Whenever the tool will not be used for some time, 

always  remember  to  switch  it  off  and  leave  the 

lever in released position.

4.5 WORK PLACE

The tool that you have purchased is a movable power

tool that requires only one operator for use thanks 

to its conformation, weight, and handiness. Under 

conditions of normal use, the operator standing in 

front of the machine has the handgrip in front of him.

5 REGULATION – MITRE SAW SQUARING

The mitre saw is delivered by the Manufacturer 

after regulation and squaring performed to standard 

parameters.

Squaring can be adjusted whenever required (see 

Points 5.4 - 5.7).

WARNING

 - Always unplug the plug from the socket 

before proceeding to any regulation operations on the 

mitre saw.

5.1 BLADE UNIT LIFTING

An assembly of internal springs keeps the blade unit 

raised in rest position. In this position, a safety catch 

prevents the accidental operation of the blade unit.

5.1.1

 In order to release the blade unit and permit the 

use of the machine as a mitre saw, press the orange 

key C on the handgrip (fig. 2) (this operation can be 

performed by keeping your right hand steady on the 

handgrip).

5.1.2

 In order to use the machine as a disk saw, 

release the blade unit as shown in 5.1.1, and after 

lowering the unit completely, lock it in place with the 

pin 

F

 (fig. 1). In this position, the oscillation of the blade 

unit can be reduced by using the knob 

A 

(fig. 12). 

Remember to return the knob to its original position 

whenever the machine must be used as a mitre saw 

(unscrew up to the position defined by the self-locking 

nut).

5.2 BLADE PENETRATION DEPTH REGULATION

(fig. 12)

The blade penetration depth has already been set by

the  Manufacturer  during  final  testing.  Due  to  the 

fact that incorrect regulation prematurely dulls blade 

sharpness and/or may break blade teeth, additional 

regulation might be required by proceeding as follows:

- Turn the knob 

A

 and the respective self-locking 

nut in order to set a limit on the descent of the motor
