Proceed as follows:
Unfasten the wing screw 12 (Fig. 2).
Set the cutting depth with the depth stop 13
according to the scale. The bevelled edge 14 of
the gearbox case serves as indicator.
Retighten the wing nut.
Always set the cutting depth
approx. 2 to 5 mm (1/16 to 3/16 in.)
larger than the material thickness
to be cut.
5.4 Cutting length adjustment
You can set the cutting length up to
1300 mm (51 in.) with the normal
guide rail. Once the guide rail
extension has been installed, you
can vary the cutting length
continuously up to 3100 mm (122
in.).
Set the cutting length as follows:
Unfasten the knurling screw 15 (Fig. 6) at the
stop slide 16.
Set the stop slide 16 in the groove of the guide
rail such that its position is approx. 120 mm (4 ¾
in.) longer than the desired cutting length.
Retighten the wing screw 15.
Always use the stop slide and set it
correctly. Otherwise the saw blade
will not automatically return to rest
position at the end of the cut. The
saw blade is then not completely
concealed!
5.5 Feed speed adjustment
You can set the feed speed
continuously between 4 and 20
m/min (13.1 and 65.6 ft/min).
You achieve a perfect cut edge if in addition to
selecting a suitable saw blade you also adapt the
feed speed to the material to be processed. Suitable
combinations "Material – saw blade – feed speed" are
contained in diagram 2 (Fig. 1).
Set the desired feed speed at the rotary switch 17
that is arranged on the operator panel. If the rotary
switch is turned counter clockwise against the limit
stop, the infeed is switched off.
5.6 Control electronics
WIth the setting wheel 38 (Fig. 2) you can
continuously adjust the saw speed between 2600 and
5200 rpm.
Which speed has to be set for which material can be
gathered from the chart.
5.7 Longitudinal cuts
To execute a longitudinal cut after tracing,
proceed as follows:
Place the machine with the saw unit in home
position onto the horizontal workpiece that has
been secured against shifting. The saw unit
must at the same time be located in front of the
front workpiece edge.
Align the machine such that the right edge of the
guide rail marks the desired cut.
Set the cutting depth (see section 4.2).
Set the cutting length (see section 4.3).
Release the saw blade locking mechanism in
rest position by pressing the plunge handle 20
(Abb. 6). Then press the saw unit into cutting
position until it engages at the clamping lever
21.
Select the feed speed (see section 4.4) and
switch on the saw drive (see section 4.5).
Execute the saw cut by pressing the rocker
switch 22 (Fig. 1) in direction
unit drives up against stop slide 16 (Fig. 6)
causing the saw blade to automatically return
into rest position.
