The vibration emission level will vary because of
the ways in which a power tool can be used and
may increase above the level given in this infor-
EN
mation sheet. This could lead to underestimation
of vibration when the tool is used regularly in such
a manner.
Noise levels and vibration 1400 DS: see assembly
instructions "Chain saw attachment"
Note: To be accurate, an estimation of the level of
exposure to vibration experienced during a given
period of work should also take into account the
times when the tool is switched off and when it is
running but not actually when doing the job.
This may significantly reduce the exposure level
over the total working period.
Specify additional safety measures to protect the
operating personnel against the effects of vibra-
tion, for example: Maintenance of power tools and
accessories, keeping hands warm, organisation of
workflows.
4. Operation
Before carrying out any work on the
machine, pull the main plug.
Start-up
Observe correct main voltage!
Before putting into operation, check that the mains
voltage and frequency on the identification plate
match the details of your mains supply.
If using an extension cable: Only use
extension cables specifically approved
for the application with the required
cross-section. Otherwise the power of
the tool can be reduced and the cable
can overheat. Replace damaged
extension cables.
Mains cable
If the mains cable is damaged while
working, pull the mains plug immedi-
ately.
1400HKS,1400DS-EN / 1106
Mains cable module
Mains cable module with Patent
Quick Interlock.
Connect the mains cable module (9) to the handle.
The plug must snap in.
Only use the mains cable module (9) for Kress
power tools. Do not attempt to operate other
machines with the module.
Damaged mains cable modules must not be used.
They must be replaced with a new Kress mains
cable module immediately.
Press the two unlocking buttons (10) and remove
the mains cable module (9) from the handle.
Use only an original Kress mains cable module
and at least a heavy rubber tube cable (H05 RN-F).
Operation
-WARNING-
Saw blade and riving knife (12) must be fitted before
starting up the saw. Observe the corresponding
information in these operating instructions! The
riving knife (12) serves as a protection against
kickback, and it is thus imperative to fit it!
Switching on and off
Before pressing the On/Off switch (1) in the
handle, the switch must be unlocked by
pressing in the release switch (2). Only then
can the saw be put into operation by pressing
the On/Off switch.
-NOTE-
For safety reasons, it is not possible to lock the
On/Off switch in position for continuous operation.
When the On/Off switch is released, the power
supply is interrupted and the saw comes to a
standstill. The lock off safety position auto-
matically locks the switch and prevents the
saw being switched on unintentionally.
Base
The base (14) has been fitted at the factory so
that the angle between the base and the saw
blade in basic position (zero setting) is pre-
cisely 90°. The 4-point mounting guarantees
accurate operation.
