Proper Use; Remaining Hazards - Scheppach PL305 Traduction Du Manuel D'origine

ing lateral force to these cutting-off wheels can cause
them to break.
• Do not used worn grinding/sanding wheels from larger
electric tools. Grinding/sanding wheels for larger elec-
tric tools are not designed for the higher speeds of
smaller electric tools and may break.
m Proper use
CE tested machines meet all valid EC machine guidelines as
well as all relevent guidelines for each machine.
• The machine must only be used in technically perfect
con dition in accordance with its designated use and
the in structions set out in the operating manual, and
only by safety-conscious persons who are fully aware of
the risks involved in oerating the machine. Any func-
tional dis orders, especially those affecting the safety of
the machine, sholud terefore be rectified immediately.
• Any other use exceeds authorization. The manufacturer
is not responsible for any damages resulting from un-
authorized use; risk is the sole responsibility of the
operator.
• The safety, work and maintenance instructions of the
manufacturer as well as the technical data given in
the calibrations and dimensions must be adhered to.
• Relevant accident prevention regulations and other,
gene rally recognized safety-technical rules must also
be adhered to.
• The machine may only be used, maintained, and op-
erated by persons familiar with it and instructed in its
operation and procedures. Arbitrary alterations to the
machine release the manufacturer from all responsi-
bility for any resulting damages.
• The machine may only be used with original accesso-
ries and tools made by the manufacturer.
m Remaining hazards
The machine has been built using modern technology in
accor dance with recognized safety rules. Some remaining
hazards, how ever, may still exist.
• The use of incorrect or damaged mains cables can lead
to injuries caused by electricity.
• Even when all safety measures are taken, some re-
maining hazards which are not yet evident may still
be present.
• Remaining hazards can be minimized by following the
instructions in „Safety Precautions", „Proper Use" and
in the entire operating manual.
• Do not force the machine unnecessarily: excessive
cutt ing pressure may lead to rapid deterioration of the
blade and a decrease in performance in terms of finish
and cutting precision.
• When cutting aluminium and plastics always use the
app ro priate clamps: all workpieces must be clamped
down firmly.
• Avoid accidental starts: do not press the start button
while inserting the plug into the socket.
• Always use the tools recommended in this manual to
obtain the best results from your plunge cut saw.
• Always keep hands away from the work area when the
ma chine is running; before performing tasks of any
kind release the main switch button located on the
handgrip, thus disconnecting the machine.
m Suitable use
To cut Fig. 4:
• With the saw blade (1) soft metal (aluminium, cop-
per, brass), single-sided coated sheet materials and
plastics.
• With the saw blade (2) hard and soft wood of domestic
or exotic origin, longitudinally and laterally through
the grain.
• With the cutting wheel (3) steel.
• With the diamond saw blade (4) tiles and stone.
Unsuitable use
Do not cut:
• Firewood, as well as all other material types that are
not listed, particularly food.
Start-up
Observe the safety notes in the operating instructions before
operating the machine.
REMOVAL OF PACKAGING
Remove the box used to protect the machine during
trans portion and keep it intact for future transportation
and storage.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Check that the electrical system to which the machine is
connected is earthed in compliance with current safety
regulations and that the current socket is in perfect con-
dition.
The electrical system must be fitted with a magnetother-
mal protective device to safeguard all conductors from
short circuits and overload.
The selection of this device should be in line with the
following electrical specifications of the machine stated
on the motor.
NOTE: Your plunge cut saw's electrical system is equipped
with an undervoltage relay which automatically opens the
circuit when the voltage falls below a minimum pre-est-
ablished limit and which prevents the self-reset of ma-
chine functions when voltage returns to normal levels.
If the machine stops involutarily, do not be allarmed.
Make sure that there has not been a voltage failure in the
electrical system.
ADJUSTING
Caution: Prior to carrying out one of the following adjust-
ment steps, switch the machine off and unplug the mains
plug.
Cutting depth adjustment, Fig. 2
The cutting depth can be adjusted from 0 to 30,5 mm.
Unfasten the cutting depth adjustment screw (6) and set
the required depth using the scale (7) and retighten the
screw.
