Maintenance And Cleaning - ATIKA BS 205 Notice Originale

Pushing stick
The pushing stick serves as enlargement of the hand
and protects against accidental touching of the saw band.
When do you have to use the pushing stick?
− When the distance between saw band and parallel stop-
per is less than 120 mm.
− In case of straight cuts against the parallel stopper.
Hang in the pushing stick in case of non-use in the mount-
ing on the side of the device.
Do not use the pushing stick when it is damaged and re-
place the pushing stick immediately.
Adjusting the upper saw band coping
The upper saw band coping protects against accidental
touching of the saw band and flying sawdust.
The height of the upper saw band coping must be adjusted:
− Before sawing, to adapt to the work piece height
− After changes of saw band (i.e. clamping or replacing saw
band, adjusting saw table)
The distance between saw band coping and work piece
must be 3 mm that there is a sufficient protection against touch-
ing the saw band.
Adjusting:
1. Release fixation
screw (B)
2. The required position
of the saw band cop-
ing can be adjusted
with the adjusting
wheel (14)
3. Refasten fixation
screw (B)
Cutting round work pieces
Cutting round timber is not allowed with the standard feeding
assistances. When cutting round timber use a special device
which safes the work piece from skewing.
Edgewise cutting of plain work pieces
When sawing edgewise plain work pieces a suitable stop angle
for a safe guidance must be used.
Cutting narrow workpieces
(Width less than 120 mm)
Push the work piece with both hands forwards, within the saw
band zone use the pushing stick.
Cutting wide workpieces
With the flat of the hand and the fingers closed, push the work
piece to be cut along the stop.
The sawing process
1. Select and adjust parallel stopper and saw table incline
corresponding to the cutting type.
When sawing with
parallel stopper and
inclined saw table the
work piece can cant.
The parallel stopper
must therefore be fixed
on the downwards
inclined side of the saw
table.
2. Adjust distance between saw band coping and work piece
to 3 mm.
3. Put work piece on the saw table.
4. Put in power plug.
5. Switch on saw.
6. Saw through work piece in one work step.
Hint:
Do always a test cut to be able to correct the adjustment.
7. Switch off saw when it is not intended to go on sawing.
