fore performing any type of work on the ma-
chine!
7.1 Electronics
Smooth start-up
The electronically controlled smooth start-up en-
sures that the machine starts up jolt-free.
Speed control
You can regulate the speed steplessly within the
speed range using the adjusting wheel [1-16] (see
Technical data). This enables you to optimise the
cutting speed to suit specific surfaces (see table –
page 25).
Current limiting
Current limiting prevents excessive current con-
sumption under extreme overload, which can lead
to a decrease in the motor speed. The motor imme-
diately restarts after the load is removed.
Brake
The HK 85 EBis fitted with an electronic brake.
When the saw is switched off, the saw blade slows
to a stop electronically within approx. 2 seconds.
Temperature cut-out
When exceeding a certain engine temperature lev-
el, the machine power supply and speed are
capped. The power tool continues operating at re-
duced power to allow the ventilator to cool the mo-
tor rapidly. The power tool resumes to full perfor-
mance automatically once the motor has cooled
sufficiently.
7.2

Adjusting the cutting depth

The cutting depth can be set to between 0 and 86
mm.

Press cutting depth adjustment [2-1].

Pull up or push down saw at main handle.
Cutting depth without guide rail/track rail
max. 86 mm
Cutting depth with guide rail/track rail
+FS

7.3 Adjusting the cutting angle

The saw table must be on an even surface when
adjusting the cutting angle.
Between 0° and 60°:

Open knob [3-2].

Swivel sawing unit to the desired cutting angle
[3-1].

Close knob [3-2].

Both positions (0° and 60°) are set at the factory
and can be readjusted by the after-sales service
team.

For angled cuts, the cutting depth is smaller
than the value displayed on the cutting depth
scale.
7.4 Adjust pendulum guard
Risk of injury! Sharp edges! The pendulum
guard swings back quickly in the event of
sudden release.
The pendulum guard [1-6] must only be opened
with the retractor lever [1-4].
7.5 Changing the saw blade
WARNING
Risk of injury, electric shock

Always pull the mains plug out of the socket be-
fore performing any type of work on the ma-
chine!
CAUTION
Hot and sharp tools
Risk of injury

Do not use insert tools that are blunt or defec-
tive.

Wear protective gloves.

Swivel saw to 0° position before replacing the
saw blade and set maximum cutting depth.

To replace the saw blade, place the saw on the
edge of the table.

Turn lever [4-3] as far as stop.

Open the screw [4-7] using the Allen key [4-2].

Hold the pendulum guard [4-6] open only with
retractor lever[4-4].

Remove saw blade [4-8].

Insert new saw blade.
The direction of rotation of the saw blade
[4-9] and saw [4-5] must match.

Insert the outer flange [4-10]so that the pin en-
gages in the recess on the inner flange.
