Close and lock the machine plate as shown in Fig. 17.
CAUTION: Make sure that the saw blade has been installed parallel to the opening in the saw gap and realign the hand-held circular saw,
if necessary.
Connection with the power supply: Plug the appliance inlet of the hand-held circular saw into the safety switch and an extension cord leading from
the safety switch to the mains socket outlet (Fig. 19.1). The extension cord is not included in the scope of delivery.
CAUTION: Press the thermostatic switch before operating for the first time! If the power is interrupted due to excess voltage, wait 5 - 10 min.
and press the thermostatic switch. The ON switch can then be pressed (Figs. 19.2, 19.3).
Press the red button (OFF) on the safety switch. Then attach the switch to the hand-held circular saw (Fig. 19.4). Now press the green button (ON)
and check that the saw blade rotates freely in the gap insert (Fig. 19.6), then press the red button (OFF) again (Fig. 19.7).
CAUTION: Always pull out the mains plug if the table is not in use or when folding up the table.
The MASTER cut 1500 is now ready for use.
STATIONARY SAWING WITH THE HAND-HELD CIRCULAR SAW
CAUTION: Always work with the protective hood and switch on dust extraction at the protective hood.
Sawing with the angle guide
Slide the angle guide into the slot (Fig. 20.1). Make sure that the black end of the stop runs as closely as possible under the protective hood so that
the hood can be lifted (Fig. 20.2). Now retract the angle guide and rest the workpiece against the angle guide. Switch on the hand-held circular saw
at the safety switch. Push the workpiece towards the circular saw in the direction of the arrow with one hand on the angle guide and the other hand
on the workpiece as shown (Fig. 20.3) until the blade cuts all the way through the workpiece. Then switch off the hand-held circular saw using the
safety switch.
CAUTION: Make always sure that your hands are kept at a sufficient distance from the rotating saw blade (danger of injury).
CAUTION: The length of the workpieces from the centre of the saw gap to the protective hood holder the must not exceed 330 mm.
The angle guide makes it possible to saw workpieces at angles ranging between 0° and 65°. Loosen the knurled screw, set the required angle
and tighten the knurled screw firmly again (Fig. 20.4). You can now use the saw as shown in Fig. 20.1 to 20.3.
Sawing with the parallel guide
Insert the parallel guide with loosened knurled screw into the slot. Slide the parallel guide up to the protective hood. Make sure that the aluminium
guide does not protrude beyond the last visible tooth on the circular saw blade (Fig 21.1). If it does, loosen the fixing screws, move the guide back
slightly and tighten the screws again. Set the required cutting depth and tighten the knurled screw. Then switch on the hand-held circular saw at the
safety switch. Push the workpiece towards the circular saw in the direction of the arrow as shown (Fig. 21.2) until the blade cuts all the way through
the workpiece. Then switch off the hand-held circular saw using the safety switch. Always use the push stick included in the scope of delivery for
narrow workpieces (Fig. 21.3).
CAUTION: The length of the workpieces must not exceed 375 mm from the centre of the saw gap to the parallel guide and 330 mm from the centre of
the saw gap to the protective hood holder (Fig. 21.4).
Vertical mitre cuts
The hand-held circular saw must be realigned for vertical mitre cuts. Set the required mitre angle on the hand-held circular saw. Retract the protective
pendulum hood on the hand-held circular saw and position the machine centrally over the saw gap. Release the cutting depth lock on the circular
saw and set the machine to the maximum cutting depth. Tighten the cutting depth lock again. Align the blade on the circular saw centrally and
parallel to the saw gap (Fig. 22.1, 22.2).
CAUTION: Check the distance between the foremost tooth on the saw blade to the front edge of the saw gap. This distance must be less than 20 mm
(Fig. 22.3).
After aligning the machine, attach the two side stops so that their surfaces are in full contact with the machine's base plate. Then attach the two
clamping claws (Fig. 22.4 a). Secure one side of the base plate. Install the angle bracket with two side stops first. Make sure they are in full contact
with the base plate. In the same way, install an angle bracket with two side stops on the opposite side. Attach the two clamping claws. The two
clamping claws must be installed as close to the longer side of the base plate as possible (Fig. 22.4 b). Note: With larger base plates, proceed as
described on page 15 (Fig. 18.5). Check once again that the saw blade rotates freely in the saw gap (Fig. 22.5).
Close and lock the machine plate as shown in Fig. 17.
CAUTION: Make sure that the saw blade has been installed parallel to the opening in the saw gap and realign the hand-held circular saw,
if necessary.
SAWING WITH THE JIGSAW
Align the jigsaw on the machine plate in such a way that the saw blade runs in the centre of the saw opening (Fig. 23.1). Install the jigsaw with four
side stops and four claws as illustrated (Fig. 23.2). Close and lock the machine plate as shown in Fig. 17. Attach the switch clamp to the switch on the
jigsaw and connect the appliance inlet to the safety switch. Always use the protective hood when operating the jigsaw (Fig. 23.3).
USE AS A WORKBENCH
The MASTER cut 1500 is equipped with 4 plastic clamping claws. They can be used to clamp workpieces flexibly and safely (Fig 24).
