Anleitung KSL 250-2 13.09.2005
Before you actuate the On/Off switch, make sure
that the saw blade is correctly fitted and that the
machine's moving parts run smoothly.
Before you connect the machine to the power
supply, make sure the data on the rating plate is
the same as that for your mains.
7. Assembly
Setting up the saw (Fig. 1 / 3/12)
Insert the two workpiece support clips (13) in the
mounts (21) provided on the side of the tool and
fasten them in place with thumb screws (22).
Insert the clamping device (19) into one of the
two mounts (20) provided on the top of stop rail
and fasten in place with the thumb screw (33).
Screw the additional stability bar (32) to the back
of the machine.
A.) Adjusting the saw (Fig. 1/2)
To adjust the rotary table (8), slacken the locking
handle (10) by approx. 2 turns and press the
latch (11) in order to unlock the rotary table (8).
The rotary table (8) has latching positions at 0°,
15°, 22.5°, 30° and 45°. Once the latch (11) is
engaged you must also tighten the locking handle
(10) in order to fix the table in position.
If you need to work with any other angles, the
rotary table is fixed in position with just the
locking handle (10).
While pressing down lightly on the machine head
(4), pull the lock pin (16) out of the motor holder
to disengage the saw from its bottom working
position.
Swing up the machine head until the retaining
hook latches home.
By loosening the lock screw (12), the machine
head (4) can be angled to the left up to 45°.
Check that the voltage marked on the rating plate
is the same as your mains voltage and connect
up the machine.
B.) 90° cross-cuts and 0° rotary table (Fig. 1)
To turn the machine on, simultaneously press the
main switch (3) and locking button (30).
Important! Place the material you want to saw flat
on the machine surface and secure with the
clamping device (19) so that the material cannot
move while you are cutting.
After switching on the saw, wait for the blade (5)
to reach its maximum speed.
Press the release lever (1) sideways and, using
the handle (2), apply steady and light downward
pressure to move the machine head through the
workpiece.
When the cut is completed, return the machine to
9:16 Uhr Seite 15
its top parking position and let go of the On/Off
switch.
Caution! A return spring causes the machine
head to rise automatically at the end of the cut.
Do not let go of the handle (2) as soon as the cut
is completed but steady the machine head and
allow it to rise slowly.
C.) Precision adjustment of the stop for 90°
cross-cuts (Fig. 4/5)
Lower the machine head (4) and fix with the lock
pin (16).
Slacken the tightening screw (12).
Place the stop angle (A) between the saw blade
(5) and the rotary table (8).
Slacken the counter nut (23) and adjust the
setting screw (24) until the angle between the
saw blade (5) and the rotary table (8) equals 90°.
Re-tighten the counter nut (23) to fix the machine
in this setting.
D.) 90° cross-cuts and 0°-45° rotary table (Fig.6)
The KSL 250/2 can be used to make angled cuts of
0°-45° relative to the stop rail on the left and right
side.
Release the rotary table (8) by slackening the
locking handle (10) and pressing the latch (11).
Turn the rotary table (8) by its handle (2) to the
angle you want, i.e. the mark (a) on the rotary
table has to comply with the required angle
dimension (17) on the base plate (9).
Re-tighten the locking handle (10) in order to fix
the rotary table (8) in position.
Make the cut as described in Section B.).
E.) Mitre cuts 0°-45° and rotary table 0° (Fig. 4/7)
The KSL 250/2 can be used to make mitre cuts of 0°-
45° relative to the machine bed on the left side.
Lift the machine head (4) to its top position.
Fix the rotary table (8) in 0° position.
Undo the tightening screw (12) and use the
handle (2) to tilt the machine head (4) to the left
until the pointer (a) coincides with the required
angle value (15).
Re-tighten the locking nut (12) and make the cut
as described in Section B.).
F.) Precision adjustment of the stop for 45° mitre
cuts (Fig. 8/9)
Lower the machine head (4) and fix with the lock
pin (16).
Fix the rotary table (8) in 0° position.
Undo the tightening screw (12) and use the
