Before Starting The Equipment - EINHELL TE-JS 18 Li Traduction Du Mode D'emploi D'origine

5. Before starting the equipment

Warning!
Always remove the battery pack before making
adjustments to the equipment.
5.1 Safety guard (Fig. 2/Item 15)
•
The safety guard (15) protects the user from
accidentally touching the saw blade (12) but
still gives you an unobstructed view of the
cutting area.
•
The safety guard (15) must always be fitted
and in position before starting any sawing
work.
•
The safety guard (15) can be pulled up as
shown in Fig. 2.
5.2 Changing the saw blade (Fig. 3/Item 12)
Warning!
Remove the battery pack before you fi t or
replace a saw blade.
•
You can fit or replace saw blades without
using any other tools.
•
Set the selector switch for pendulum action
(8) to position D (see Fig. 13).
•
The teeth of the saw blade are very sharp!
•
Remove the safety guard (15).
•
Press the blade holder (14) and insert the
saw blade (12) into the blade holder (14) as
far as the stop (Fig. 3). The teeth on the saw
blade must be pointing forwards.
•
Allow the blade holder (14) to slide back to
starting position. The saw blade (12) must sit
in the guide roller (10).
•
Check that the saw blade (12) is securely
mounted in the blade holder.
•
To remove the saw blade, follow the
instructions above in reverse order.
5.3 Fitting the parallel stop (Fig. 4/Item 11)
•
The parallel stop (11) enables you to saw
parallel cuts.
•
Undo the two locking screws (13) on the
soleplate (7).
•
Now slide the parallel stop (11) into the
guides on the soleplate (7). You can fit the
parallel stop (11) on either the left or right of
the equipment.
•
The guide strip must always face downwards.
Set the required distance using the
measurement scale on the parallel stop (11)
and tighten the locking screws (13) again.

Important!
The read-off point for the measurement scale is
at the points on the left or right (see the arrows
shown in Fig. 4), depending on which side
the parallel stop is inserted from, left or right.
The mark in the center of the soleplate is only
provided for cutting along a line and not for
reading the measurement scale.
5.4 Setting the soleplate for miter cuts (Fig. 5)
•
Undo the locking lever (16) on the soleplate.
•
Pull the soleplate (7) slightly forward. The
soleplate can now be swiveled a maximum
47° to the left and right.
•
If the soleplate (7) is pushed back to the
rear again it will only function in the locking
positions at 0°, 15°, 30° and 45°, which
are marked on the graduated scale for the
soleplate (9). Move the soleplate into the
required position and refasten the locking
lever (16).
•
However, the soleplate (7) is also easily set to
another angle. To do so, slide the soleplate (7)
forwards, set the desired angle and refasten
the locking lever (16).
Important! For miter cuts you must remove the
locking screws for the parallel stop (13) and the
splinter guard (17).
5.5 Adapter for dust extraction system (Fig.
6/Item 5)
•
Connect your jigsaw to a vacuum cleaner
using the adapter for dust extraction (5). This
will ensure optimum dust extraction from
the workpiece. The benefits are that you will
protect both the equipment and your own
health. Your work area will also be cleaner
and safer.
•
Dust created when working may be
dangerous. Refer to the section entitled
"Safety information".
•
Fit the adapter (5) as shown in Fig. 6. The
adapter (5) must audibly engage to ensure
that it is secure in the soleplate (7). The
adapter for chip extraction (5) cannot be used
for miter cuts.
•
Fit the vacuum tube of the vacuum cleaner
onto the adapter opening (5). Check that the
connections are air-tight.
