Electrical Safety; Assembling - ATIKA BWS 500 Notice Originale

The use of other tools and other accessories can signify a risk of
injury for you.
Pay attention that the saw blade conforms to the dimensions specified
under "Technical Data" and is suitable for the work piece material.
Only saw one work piece at a time. Never saw several work pieces at the
same time or do not bundle several individual pieces together for cutting.
There is danger that individual pieces may be caught by the saw blade in
an uncontrolled manner.
Ensure that cut off pieces are not caught up by the saw blade and
projected away
Do not use the saw for unsuitable purposes (see "Normal intended use").
Remove all nails and metallic objects from the work piece before sawing.
Pay attention that the work piece does not contain any cables, ropes,
cords or the like.
Only cut work pieces with dimensions that allow secure holding while
sawing.
The length of the material to be cut must not exceed 2 m. The length of
the material must be 20 cm as a minimum.
Only wood pieces up to a max. diameter of 18 cm are allowed to be cut
to avoid dangerous turnover cutting.
Always keep sufficient distance to the saw blade. Maintain sufficient
distance from driven components during operation.
The saw blade runs after. Wait until the saw blade has come to a
standstill before remove splinters, chips and waste.
Do not slow the saw blade down by applying lateral pressure to it.
Do not remove splinters, shavings and waste with your hands from the
dangerous area of the saw blade.
Remove cutting waste from the machine (as required) to prevent any
safety impairment at the workplace. This also applies to sawdust. Keep
the chip clearance free.
Switch the machine off and remove the mains plug from the socket when
− carrying out repair works
− maintenance and cleaning
− removal of faults (this also includes the removal of jammed splinters)
− checks of connecting lines, whether these are knotted or damaged
− transporting the saw
− changing the saw blade
− leaving the saw (also for short-term interruption)
Maintain your saw with care:
− Keep your tools sharp and clean in order to be able to work better
and safer.
− Follow the maintenance instructions and the instructions for tool
exchange.
− Keep handles dry and free of oil and grease.
Check the machine for possible damage:
− Before further use of the machine the protection devices or slightly
damaged parts must be checked carefully for their proper and
intended function.
− Check whether the movable parts function perfectly and do not stick
or whether the parts are damaged. All parts must be correctly
installed and fulfil all conditions to ensure perfect operation of the
saw.
− Damaged guards and parts must be properly repaired or exchanged
by a recognized, specialist workshop; insofar as nothing else is
stated in the instructions for use.
− Damaged or illegible safety labels should be replaced immediately.
Do not allow any tool key to be plugged in!
Before switching on, check always that wrenches and adjusting tools are
removed.
Store unused equipment in a dry, locked place out of the reach of
children.

Electrical safety

Design of the connection cable according to IEC 60 245 (H 07 RN-F) with
a core cross-section of at least
− 1.5 mm² for cable lengths up to 25 m
− 2.5 mm² for cable lengths over 25m
11
Long and thin connection lines result in a potential drop. The motor does
not reach any longer its maximal power; the function of the device is
reduced.
Plugs and coupler outlets on connection cables must be made of rubber,
plasticised PVC or other thermoplastic material of same mechanical
stability or be covered with this material.
Protect yourself against an electric shock. Avoid touching earthed parts
with your body.
The connector of the connection cable must be splash-proof.
Wind off completely the cable when using a cable drum.
Do not use the cable for purposes for which it is not meant. Protect the
cable against heat, oil and sharp edges. Do not use the cable to pull the
plug from the socket.
Regularly check the saw cable and if damaged, have it renewed by a
recognised skilled electrician.
When running the connection line observe that it does not interfere, is not
squeezed, bended and the plug connection does not get wet.
Regularly check the extension cables and replace them if they are
damaged.
Do not use any defective connection cables.
When working outdoors, only use extension cables especially approved
and appropriately labelled for outdoor use.
Do not set up any provisional electrical connections.
Never bypass protective devices or deactivate them.
Only hook up the machine by means of a fault-current circuit breaker (30
mA).
The electrical connection or repairs to electrical parts of the machine
must be carried out by a certified electrician or one of our customer
service points. Local regulations – especially regarding protective
measures – must be observed.
Repairs to other parts of the machine must be carried out by the
manufacturer or one of his customer service points.
Use only original spare parts. Accidents can arise for the user through
the use of other spare parts. The manufacturer is not liable for any
damage or injury resulting from such action.

Assembling

Assembling the switch
A
Install the switch (4) onto the switch base (a). [4x screw M4x10]
Assembling the frame
B
On each side place each one washer and one wheel (6) on the axle
of the pre-assembled device unit (1). Secure them with each one
washer (7) and one cotter pin (8).
C
Install the braces (3) on the leg frame (2). [2x screw M8x45, washer
and nut]
- F
D
Screw the leg frame on the device unit (1) using the braces (2). [2x
screw M8x45, 2x screw M8x75, 8x washer Ø 9mm and 4x nut M8]
Assembling the saw blade casing and saw blade
F - G
Install the saw blade cover (9) with safety guard on the motor base
plate (b).
Danger of cutting! Wear gloves.
H I
- Slide the saw blade flange (12) on the motor shaft and secure it using
cotter pins (15). Remove the clamping screw (16) from the motor
shaft. Use the open-end wrench (28) to hold the flange (13) and
loosen the clamping screw (turn anticlockwisely) using the installation
wrench (29). Slide the saw blade (14), the saw blade flange (13) and
the washer (Ø11x35) on the motor shaft and secure these parts with
the clamping screw (16) [M10x25] (tightening torque 30-35 Nm).
Pay attention to the saw blade's sense of rotation (note the
arrow on the saw blade and on the safety guard).
