Using The Saw - Flex SKE2902VV Notice D'instruction D'origine

Periodically clean the blade clamp with dry compressed air. DO NOT lubricate the blade clamp.
Lubricant can attract contamination.
WARNING
DUAL BLADE MOTION
Model SKE 2902 VV has dual blade motion: you have a choice of straight reciprocating motion, as shown
in Fig. 8, or orbital motion as shown in Fig. 9. Straight reciprocating motion should be used for all metal
cutting operations, and for wood cutting applications where finish is more important than speed. Orbital
motion is used for fast cutting of wood.
To set saw for straight reciprocating motion: rotate knob (A) Fig. 8, clockwise so that the bar is vertical
(opposing arrow symbol up), as shown in Fig. 8.
To set saw for orbital motion: rotate knob (A) Fig. 9, counterclockwise so that the bar is horizontal (oval
arrow symbol up), as shown in Fig. 9.
PIVOTING GUIDE SHOE
The pivoting guide shoe (A) Fig. 10 serves as a rest while making a cut and it can be adjusted to
accommodate many types of cutting applications.
WARNING
WARNING
The SKE 2902 VV is supplied with a keyless Quik-Change™ pivoting guide shoe. To adjust, rotate lever
(A) Fig. 11 releasing the pivoting guide shoe (B). Adjust to desired position and close lever (A) Fig. 12.
The keyless Quik-Change™ pivoting guide shoe is designed with a raised lip (C) Fig. 11 at the end that
prevents the guide shoe from locking in position if it is extended out too far. After adjusting, make sure the
locking lever is completely closed in the locked position (A) Fig. 12.
NOTE: DO NOT force the locking lever closed. Adjust shoe enough to allow the lever to lock in
position without force.
BEFORE YOU START TO WORK
Select the blade best suited for the material to be cut. For greatest economy, use the shortest blade
suitable for the thickness of the material to be cut.
Be sure the material to be cut is rigid. Small work pieces should be securely clamped in a bench vise or
with clamps to the work table. As the work progresses in scroll or curved cu t-out pieces, the material may
be readjusted to accommodate the movement of the saw. If the work is large enough, it may be held only
by hand across saw horses. The saw cuts freely with only slight feed pressure. Forcing the saw will not
make it cut faster.
SAWING WOOD
The SKE 2902 VV is used much the same as a hand saw in that it is moved toward the operator during
the cutting operation. However, since the blade cuts on the up-stroke in stead of the down-stroke as in the
case of the hand saw, the good or finish side of the work should face down during the cutting operation.
PLUNGE CUTS
The SKE 2902 VV can be used for plunge cutting wood, plywood, wallboard, and plasticmaterials.
DO NOT attempt to plunge cut metal.
