6. Suitable use
To cut:
• Hard and soft, domestic and exotic wood both lon-
gitudinally and transversally and with appropriate
adjustments (specific blade and clamps);
Unsuitable use
Do not cut:
•
Ferrous materials, steel and cast iron or any oth
-
er material not mentioned above and in particular
foodstuffs.
7. Start-up
Observe the safety notes in the operating instruc
-
tions before operating the machine.
Electrical connections
Check that the electrical system to which the machine
is connected is earthed in compliance with current
safety regulations and that the current socket is in per
-
fect condition. The electrical system must be fitted with
a magneto thermal protective device to safeguard all
conductors from short circuits and overload. The se-
lection of this device should be in line with the follow-
ing electrical specifications of the machine stated on
the motor.
8. Adjusting
Caution:
Prior to carrying out one of the following ad
-
justment steps, switch the machine off and unplug the
mains plug.
Cutting depth adjustment (fig. 2)
The cutting depth can be adjusted from 0 to 75 mm.
Unfasten the cutting depth adjustment screw (6) and
set the required depth using the scale (7) and retighten
the screw.
The dimensions on the rail shows the cutting depth
without rail.
Mitre settings (fig. 3)
The mitre square can be set from 0° to 45°.
Unfasten the mitre adjustment screws (8) on both
sides, set the desired mitre square on the scale (9) and
retighten both screws.
Subject to technical modifications!
Warning:
Noise can have adverse health effects.
Should the noise level increase above 85 dB(A), you
must wear ear protection. Should the electrical supply
not be optimal, then the current can drop for a short
time when the machine is turned on. This can influence
other equipment (for example, the blinking of a lamp).
Should the electrical capacity have a Zmax < 0.27,
such disturbances are not to be expected. (Should you
have difficulties, please consult your local dealer.)
Remaining hazards
The machine has been built using modern technol-
ogy in accor dance with recognized safety rules.
Some remaining hazards, how ever, may still exist.
• The use of incorrect or damaged mains cables can
lead to injuries caused by electricity.
•
Even when all safety measures are taken, some
remaining hazards which are not yet evident may
still be present.
•
Remaining hazards can be minimized by following
the instructions in „Safety Precautions“, „Proper
Use“ and in the entire operating manual.
•
Do not force the machine unnecessarily: excessive
cutt ing pressure may lead to rapid deterioration of
the blade and a decrease in performance in terms
of finish and cutting precision.
•
When cutting aluminium and plastics always use
the app ro priate clamps: all workpieces must be
clamped down firmly.
• Avoid accidental starts: do not press the start button
while inserting the plug into the socket.
•
Always use the tools recommended in this manual
to obtain the best results from your plunge cut saw.
•
Always keep hands away from the work area when
the ma chine is running; before performing tasks of
any kind release the main switch button located on
the handgrip, thus disconnecting the machine.
Warning!
This electric tool generates an electromag-
netic field during operation. This field can impair ac
-
tive or passive medical implants under certain condi-
tions. In order to prevent the risk of serious or deadly
injuries, we recommend that persons with medical
implants consult with their physician and the manu
-
facturer of the medical implant prior to operating the
