Commissioning; Mains Connection; On / Off Switch; Dust/Chip Exhaustion - ATIKA T 250 N-2 Notice Originale

Before each use, check
− Connection cables for defects (cracks, cuts, etc.)
Do not use any defective cables.
− that the guard is in a proper condition
− the splitting wedge setting (see splitting wedge setting)
− that the table insert is in a proper condition
− whether the pushstick is to hand
− the saw blade for flawless condition
Do not use any cracked saw blades or such that have
changed their shape.
Do not use any saw blades made of HSS steel.
Immediately replace a worn or damaged table insert.
When sawing, place yourself to the side of the danger area
(saw blade).
Lower the guard onto the bench top
− when working on the workpiece
− when interrupting the work or leaving the saw

Commissioning

Rotational direction of the saw blade
Ensure that the rotational direction of the saw blade is the
same as the rotational direction given on the guard.
Selection of saw blades
Consider when selecting the saw blade, that no
edgeless or damaged saw bands are used and that the
diameter of the blade location hole is 30 mm.
The saw blade supplied as a standard is suitable for
timber and most plastics.
Suitable saw blades must be selected for other
materials to be cut.

Mains connection

Compare the voltage given on the machine model plate e.g.
220 – 240 V with the mains voltage and connect the saw to the
relevant and properly earthed plug.
Alternating current motor:
Use a shockproof plug, mains voltage 220 – 240 V with residual
current circuit breaker (FI switch 30 mA).
Main fuse: 10 A inert
Use the connection or extension cable according to IEC 60245
(H 07 RN-F) with a core cross-profile section of at least
1.5 mm2 for cable lengths up to 25m
2.5 mm2 for cable lengths over 25m

On / Off Switch

Do not use any device where the switch can not be
switched on and off. Damaged switches must be repaired
or replaced immediately by the customer service.
Switch on
Press the green button ( I ) on the switch.
If there is a power cut, the machine switches off
automatically. To switch on again, press the green ( I )
button.
Switch off
Press the red button ( O ) on the switch.
Motor protection
The motor is equipped with a safety switch and
switches off independently when overloaded.
It can be switched back on following cooling phase (5 -
10 min.).
First press
1. small button (17)
2. the green button ( I ) to start

Dust/chip exhaustion

The wood dust generated during operation impedes
the necessary view and is harmful to health to some
degree.
Unless the machine is used outdoors, it must be connected to a
chip exhaust system (e.g. portable dust remover).
Chip exhaustion
Connect a chip exhaust system or small vacuum cleaner
with suitable adapter to the chip exhaust neck (18) (Ø 40 mm).
Air velocity at the exhaust neck of the saw ≥ 20 m/sec.
Use a special exhaust device when exhausting dusts that are
harmful to health, carcinogen or dry.

Adjusting the saw

Pull the mains plug before performing
settings.

Adjusting the riving knife

The riving knife is an important safety device as it
prevents the workpiece from recoiling.
Always use the supplied riving knife.
To ensure the function of the riving knife its clearance to
the saw blade teeth must be correctly adjusted.
