Chip Extraction; Saw Blade Selection - Mafell KSS 400 Manual De Instrucciones Original Y Lista De Piezas De Recambio

For commissioning of the rapid charging device and for
a description of the charging process, please refer to
the enclosed "APS Akku - Power - Station" manual.
The rechargeable battery has been equipped with a
temperature monitor which only allows for charging
in the temperature range between 5°C and 45°C.
This ensures a long service life of the battery.
If the operating times after the respective charging
processes considerably decrease, the battery is
used-up and must be replaced.
Protect the battery against heat and
fire:
Risk of explosion !
Do not put down the battery on a heater or expose it
to strong solar radiation over longer periods of time.
Temperatures exceeding 50°C are harmful. Cool
down the warmed battery prior to the charging proc-
ess.
Do not open the battery and protect
it against shocks. Store the battery
at a dry and frost-proof place.
Cover the contacts if the battery is
stored outside the charger. Short-
circuits due to metallic jumpering
bear the risk of fire and explosion.
Do not carry out rapid charging
processes consecutively. Do not re-
charge the battery after short opera-
tions (e.g. 3 minutes).
Observe the instructions on envi-
ronmental protection.

Chip extraction

When cutting wood for a long period and when using
the machine industrially and with materials that gen-
erate dust which represents a health hazard, the
machine must be connected to a suitable dust
extractor unit. The inside diameter of the attachable
extractor connection 3 (Fig. 2) is 35 mm (1 3/8 in.).
In Germany, extractors tested for the
extraction of wood dust are specified.
Safe compliance with air pollution limits
(2 mg/m ) is ensured only if the machine
3
is connected to a tested extractor unit
(such as an industrial vacuum cleaner or
a combination unit).

Saw blade selection

Besides requiring the use of a sharp saw blade, good
quality cuts depend primarily on the choice of the saw
blade type according to the material being cut.
For different types of material the following saw
blades should be selected:
Universal blade for max. cutting meters espe-
cially for battery-powered machines:
TCT saw blade Ø 160 x 1.6 x 20, 16 teeth
(6 1/4 x 1/16 in. x 20 mm)
For rip and cross cuts in soft or hard wood:
TCT saw blade 160 x 1.8 x 20 mm, 24 teeth
(6 1/4 x 5/64 in. x 20 mm)
For cuts especially longitudinal to the grain in
soft or hard wood:
TCT saw blade 160 x 1.8 x 20 mm, 16 teeth
(6 1/4 x 5/64 in. x 20 mm)
For cuts especially across the grain in soft or
hard wood:
TCT saw blade 160 x 1.8 x 20 mm, 32 teeth
(6 1/4 x 5/64 in. x 20 mm)
3.4 Change of saw blade
Always remove the battery from the
machine before changing the saw
blade (refer to section 4.3).
Do not fit saw blades that are
cracked or otherwise damaged.
Only use saw blades with a diame-
ter between 149 (5 3/4 in.) and 160
mm (6 1/4 in.) and a bore diameter
of 20 mm.
Do not use HSS saw blades.
Make sure that the saw blade being mounted is
properly sharpened since this is the basic require-
ment for perfect cuts.
Proceed as follows to change the saw blade:
• Press locking bolt 8 (Fig. 3) first in order to lock
the saw blade.
• Insert the Allen key 5 (Fig. 3), provided in the
holder on the machine, into the flange screw 18
(Fig. 1) and turn until the locking bolt is fully
engaged. To slacken off the flange screw, turn the
Allen key counterclockwise, then remove the
screw and front clamping flange 12. Open the
retractable saw guard 13 and remove the saw
blade by lifting it to the front and pulling out to the
bottom.
