Depth Of Cut; Switching On And Off; Working With The Wall Chaser - Metabo MFE 65 Notice Originale

en ENGLISH
The direction of rotation is indicated by arrows on
the cut-off wheel and guard.
- Fit the spacers (14). For groove width and spacers
required, see table on page 2.
- Fit the cut-off wheel (15). Make sure the
direction of rotation is correct. The direction of
rotation is indicated by arrows on the cut-off wheel
and guard.
Regardless of the groove width, all seven
spacers must always be fitted. There must be
at least one spacer between the two diamond
cut-off wheels.
- Screw on the adjusting nut (13).
- Press and hold down the locking button (11).
- Using a 2-hole spanner, tighten the adjusting nut
(13) (18).
Since the mounted cut-off wheels protrude
from the safety guard, store the tool by placing
it on its side, not on the rollers.
Carry out a test run: Position yourself and
bystanders away from the plane of the rotating
wheel and run the power tool at maximum no-load
speed for one minute. Damaged abrasive wheels
will normally break apart during this test period.
Stop immediately if significant vibrations occur or if
other defects are noted. If such a situation occurs,
check the machine to determine the cause.
8. Using the machine with only
one diamond cut-off wheel
If you remove the front diamond cut-off wheel and
leave only the rear wheel on the machine, the wall
chaser is then suited for cutting through materials
(e.g. tiles).

9. Depth of cut

Release the lever (1) and set the depth of cut.
Tighten the lever (1) again.
Tip: In the case of very hard concrete and cuts
deeper than 35 mm, we recommend setting the cut
in two steps to avoid overloading the machine.
10. Extracting the stone dust
Caution! Never work without a dust extraction
device. Dusts can be harmful to health!
Never work without a dust extraction device.
The motor can quickly choke on stone dust.
Use a suitable Metabo vacuum cleaner (see
section15.).
To extract stone dust generated during work with
the wall chaser, insert the suction hose 30 344 (4 m)
in the aperture of the extraction unit (3). The
bayonet catch prevents the suction hose from
coming loose while the machine is in operation.
Using a second suction hose
30 344 allows you to set up the extraction unit at a
distance of up to 8m from the work place.
(Suction hose not included in scope of delivery).
To connect a suction hose without a bayonet catch,
use the connection adapter provided.

11. Switching on and off

Always guide the machine with both hands.
Switch on first, then guide the accessory
towards the workpiece.
The machine must not be allowed to draw in
additional dust and shavings. When switching
the machine on and off, keep it away from dust
deposits. After switching off the machine, only place
it down when the motor has come to a standstill.
Avoid inadvertent starts: always switch the
tool off when the plug is removed from the
mains socket or if there has been a power cut.
In continuous operation, the machine
continues running if it is forced out of your
hands. Therefore, always hold the machine with
both hands using the handles provided, stand in a
safe position and concentrate.
See illustration A on page 2.
Torque activation
Switching on: Slide the lock (5) in the direction of
the arrow and press the trigger (6).
Switching off: Release the trigger (6).
Continuous operation (depending on features)
Switching on: Slide the lock (5) in the direction of the
arrow, press the trigger (6) and keep it pressed. The
machine is now switched on. Now slide the lock (5)
in the direction of the arrow once more to lock the
trigger (6) (continuous operation).
Switching off: Press the trigger (6) and release.

12. Working With the Wall Chaser

Only use the wall chaser with the additional
handle attached (9)!
Once the retaining screw is released (10), you can
adjust the handle holder in 30° steps to the relevant
working position. When the retaining screw is
tightened, the 4 fixing pins on the handle holder are
introduced into the corresponding holes.
Always hold the tool by the main handle and
additional handle, using both hands.
Position the wall chaser with the rear guide rollers
on the work surface.
Slowly move the operating machine downward until
all guide rollers are lying flat on the work surface.
Then pull the machine in the chase direction,
e.g. from top to bottom as shown in Fig. A below
(page 4) or - for horizontal chases - back towards
itself as shown in Fig, B (page 4).
Once the channel is complete, switch off the tool
and hold it steady until the wheel comes to a stop.
Never attempt to remove the cut-off wheel from
the cut while the wheel is in motion otherwise
kickback may occur. Lay the tool on its side.
You can remove the remaining strip between the
two chases with the chase extraction chisel
provided.
