Cutting Narrow Workpieces; Cutting Wide Workpieces; Maintenance And Care - ATIKA TOPTRONIC Mode D'emploi

Lift the drawbar (20) slightly
Remove it slowly and simultaneously push part 52 in the
direction of the arrow until it clicks in place (fig. 8)
To unlock: Hold the drawbar firmly and press the catch lever
in the opposite direction to the arrow. You can then move the
saw set with the hand wheel (21).
Adjust the required cutting width using the parallel fence.
Set the cutting height approx. 5 mm higher than the
workpiece thickness
Lower the guard (39) until it is approx. 8 mm above the
workpiece.
Use as a flush-mounted crosscut saw
Fig. 15, 16, 18 and 20, p. 45 and 46
For precisely separating fixed workpieces.
Press the catch lever (52) all the way up (cross-cutting
setting)
Press the hand wheel (21) slightly upwards
You can now pull the saw set forward with the hand wheel
(21) until the workpiece has been sawn through (fig. 16)

Cutting narrow workpieces

(Width less than 120 mm)
Use as a bench-top circular saw
Push the workpiece forward with both hands, in the area
of the saw blade, use the pushstick (42)
When working on very flat and narrow workpieces (Width
30 mm and less) use the lower guide are of the fence
scale (41) (fig. 19)

Cutting wide workpieces

Use as a bench-top circular saw
Set the fence scale (41) (rear end behind the splitting
wedge)
Draw the fence back if the workpiece could clamp between
the saw blade, splitting wedge and fence.
Rule of thumb: The rear end of the fence butts against an
imaginary line, which starts approximately in the centre of
the saw blade and runs to the rear at an angle of 45°.
Blind cuts
Remove the protective cover and press the splitting wedge
œ
(32) downwards (Fig 12)
After blind cuts, the splitting wedge has to be removed
again and the guard reattached
Ensure that the workpiece is safely guided
Press the workpiece firmly on the table
In order to avoid damage or injury, the split cotter pin
must be completely removed before the guard hood is
mounted.
Cross cuts / mitre cuts
Fix the universal fence to the front joint strip
Set the fence scale (41) at the required angle and ensure
that it is close to the cutting level
Push the fence support (50) so that the workpiece can be
safely placed
Hold the workpiece firmly and pull the saw set forwards.

Maintenance and Care

Remove the mains plug before all
maintenance works
Observe the following to maintain the functionality of the
saw
•
Clean and oil all moving parts regularly (p. 46, fig. 21)
lower the saw blade
Incline the saw unit by 45°
œ
place the saw carefully on its left side
Clean the movable parts and lubricate positions 1 - 4
Never use any grease!
Use for instance sewing machine oil, liquid hydraulic fluid
or environmentally acceptable spray oil.
