Switching On And Off - Metabo S 18 LTX 115 Notice D'utilisation Originale

Tensioning spindle
Screw the tensioning spindle (10) onto the spindle
(4) while holding in the spindle locking knob (2) and
tighten with an open-ended spanner (12).
6.1 For mains powered machines only
Mains connection
Before plugging in the device, check that the
rated mains voltage and mains frequency, as
specified on the rating label, match your power
supply.
The red electronics signal indicator (7) lights up
briefly when the mains plug is inserted in the socket,
indicating readiness for operation.
Setting speed
The speed can be preset via the setting wheel (14)
and is infinitely variable.
Positions 1-6 correspond approximately to the
following no-load speeds:
1......... 900 rpm
2......... 1250 rpm
3......... 1660 rpm
The VTC electronics make material-compatible
work possible and an almost constant speed, even
under load.
The best way to determine the ideal speed setting is
by performing a test.
6.2 For cordless machines only
Dust filter
Always fit the dust filter if the surroundings are
heavily polluted (1).
The machine heats up faster when the dust
filter is fitted (1). It is protected by the elec-
tronics system from overheating (see chapter10.).
Attaching: See page 2, illustration A.
Attach dust filter (1) as shown.
To remove: Holding the dust filter (1) by the upper
edges, raise it slightly and then pull it downwards
and remove.
Rotating battery pack
See illustration B on page 2.
The rear section of the machine can be rotated 270°
in three stages, thus allowing the machine's shape
to be adapted to the working conditions. Only
operate the machine when it is in an engaged posi-
tion.
Battery pack
Charge the battery pack before use (6).
If performance diminishes, recharge the battery
pack.
The ideal storage temperature is between 10°C and
30°C.
"Li-Power" li-ion battery packs have a capacity and
signal indicator: (5)
- Press the button (4), the LEDs indicate the charge
level.
- If one LED is flashing, the battery pack is almost
flat and must be recharged.
4 ....... 2050 rpm
5 ....... 2410 rpm
6 ....... 2810 rpm
Removing and inserting the battery pack
To remove: Press the battery pack release button
(3) and pull the battery pack (6) downwards.
To fit:Slide in the battery pack (6) until it engages.

7. Switching ON and OFF

Always guide the machine with both hands.
Switch on first, then guide the accessory
towards the workpiece.
The machine must not be allowed to draw in
additional dust and shavings. When switching
the machine on and off, keep it away from dust
deposits. After switching off the machine, only place
it down when the motor has come to a standstill.
In continuous operation, the machine
continues running if it is forced out of your
hands. Therefore, always hold the machine with
both hands using the handles provided, stand in a
safe position and concentrate.
Switching on: Push the slide switch (7) forward.
For continuous activation, now tilt downwards until
it engages.
Switching off: Press the rear end of the slide
switch (7) and release.
8. Installing the tools
Press in the spindle locking knob (8) only
when the spindle is stationary!
Tools with threaded insert:
1. Remove the tensioning spindle (16) if neces-
sary. Press in spindle locking button (8) and hold
in place. Unscrew the tensioning spindle using
the open-ended spanner (17).
2. Press in spindle locking button and hold in place.
3. Screw the tool onto the spindle and tighten.
Tools for tensioning spindle:
- Attach the tensioning spindle (16) if necessary.
Press in spindle locking button (8) and hold in
place. Tighten the tensioning spindle using the
open-ended spanner (17).
- Slide the tool onto the tensioning spindle.
- Press in spindle locking button (8) and hold in
place.
- Screw the tool fixing screw (15) onto the
tensioning spindle and tighten (the spindle locking
knob engages and the tool can be secured).
If the tools used are shorter than the
tensioning spindle, insert the relevant distance
sleeves (18). This is the only way to properly secure
the tool.
9. Maintenance
Disconnect the mains plug or remove the battery
pack from the machine before starting any mainte-
nance work.
Motor cleaning: blow compressed air through the
rear ventilation slots of the machine regularly,
