Contact Protector
The contact protector 11 attached to the machine
prevents unintentional contact with the saw blade
while working.
Sawdust Blower
The sawdust blowing device directs a stream of air
at the saw blade. This prevents the cut line from be-
ing covered by sawdust while working. The air
stream can be adjusted to one of three levels with
adjustment lever 6:
Low blower: For work with metals and
when using coolants and lubricants;
for use with dust suction!
Moderate blower;
High blower: For working with wood
and similar materials.
Pendulum Action Setting
The saw blade pendulum action that
is adjustable in four steps makes pos-
sible the optimum adaptation of saw-
ing advancing (cutting speed), cutting
performance and cut appearance of
the material to be worked.
For each downward movement, the saw blade is lift-
ed off the material which facilitates sawdust ejection,
reduces heat generated by friction and increases the
service life of the saw blade. At the same time, the
reduction of the necessary advancing force makes
fatigue-free working possible.
The adjustment lever 7 makes possible the adjust-
ment of the pendulum action in four steps. The
switching can take place with the machine running:
Step 0:
No pendulum action
Step I:
Small pendulum action
Step II:
Medium pendulum action
Step III:
Large pendulum action
The following basic recommendations are to be ob-
served:
The finer and cleaner the cut edge should be, the
smaller the pendulum step selected should be or
switch off.
For the working of thin material such as sheet
metal, switch off the pendulum action (Step 0).
In hard material such as steel, work with a small
pendulum action.
In materials such as softwood and cutting in the
direction of the grain, the maximum pendulum
action can be used.
The optimal setting can be determined in practice.
Cutting Angle Adjustment
After screw 13 is loosened using Allen key 3 and
base plate 5 is slid toward the saw blade, the blade
can be swung left or right to 45°. Angles of 0°, 15°,
30° and 45° are indicated by the markings 12. In-
termediate settings are no problem.
After rough adjustment, tighten screw 13 until you
can still just move the base plate 5. Set cutting angle
precisely. Tighten screw 13.
The 0° position (saw blade vertical) is secured by po-
sitioning lobe 14 in the housing.
When tightening screw 13, press base plate toward
motor and against the positioning lobe
