2.5. Installing the saw blade
When installing the saw blade, take care not to place the saw on the anti-kink
sleeve on the mains lead, otherwise the lead may be damaged. Loosen clamping
screw (9) on saw blade thrust washer (4) so that the blade can be inserted over
the centering pin. The REMS special saw blade must be positioned between
the two arms of the U-shaped thrust washer (Fig. 2). REMS saw blades must
be positioned in the recess in the base of the thrust washer (Fig. 3). Secure
the saw blade tightly with clamping screw (9), otherwise the centering pin may
become damaged or could shear. The centering pin is not intended to hold the
saw blade. This function is performed by the clamping action of clamping screw
(9). lf this cannot be properly tightened, because the screw socket or socket
wrench is worn, the centering pin will shear off. For this reason, replace the
clamping screw (9) or socket wrench well before wear becomes e xcessive.
3. Operating
REMS Tiger ANC: On-/off with touch control (7).
REMS Tiger ANC VE, REMS Panther ANC VE, REMS Cat ANC VE and
REMS Akku-Cat ANC VE: Stepless speed control by pressing switch (10).
REMS Tiger ANC SR: Speed adjustment with dial (12). On/off switching with
tip switch (7).
REMS Tiger ANC pneumatic: In order to release the safety catch (approved
by TÜV) first pull the lever (11) sideways and then press the lever down.
3.1. Operation while sawing with guide support
Mount guide support as d escribed under 2.2. Position saw with guide support
onto the pipe so that the clamp spindle is vertical. Press tip switch (7 or 10)
while holding the motor h andle at the same time, respectively press lever (11),
and pull up saw until pipe or rod is cut through. Start-sawing, especially at large
diameters (e.g. 4"), can be improved by not switching the motor on before the
saw blade t ouches the pipe. Note that the prism of the guide support is to be
kept c lean all the time, otherwise square cutting will be effected. For obtaining
optimum stroke speed and for protecting the saw blade, only apply moderate
feed forward. High f orce does not make sawing faster!
3.2. Operation while sawing free-hand
For straight or curved cutting, press support shoe (6) forcefully against the
material in a way that the support shoe (6) touches the material at any time.
Switch machine on. Use only sharp and fault l ess blades. Take care to cut at a
uniform feeding speed. This will r educe the risk of accidents and wear on tool
and blade. Always keep the power c able towards the rear of the machine.
Plunge cutting into a plain surface: lf the material is not too hard e.g. wood or
plasterboards, the saw blade in motion can be plunged c arefully into the mate-
rial (see Fig. 4). Before switching on machine place tip of saw on the cutting
point with machine resting on the lower edge of support shoe. Switch on saw
and plunge blade care f ully into material. For hard material such as metal first
drill a starting hole according to the s ize of the saw blade. lt is important to
press the support shoe (6) firmly against the material to be cut in order to obtain
a uniform and smooth cutting o peration.
DANGER
Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces ("A"), when
performing an operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring
or its own cord. Cutting accessory contacting a "live" wire may make exposed
metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
3.3. Lubricants
Do not use any lubricants. They will prevent the ejection of chips from the cutting
point and will reduce the life of the saw blades.
3.4. Stainless steel pipes, hard cast iron pipes
For sawing stainless steel pipes and hard cast iron pipes use REMS T iger ANC
SR and one of the REMS universal saw blades 561003 ... 561006. For square
cutting the guide support is essential (see 2.2.). O nly when cutting stainless
steel, use REMS Spezial or REMS Sanitol for cooling and lubricating.
4. Maintenance
WARNING
Before any repair work, pull the mains plug or remove the
battery!
4.1. Maintenance
The REMS reciprocating saws are maintenance free. The gear runs in a sealed
grease housing and therefore does not need any lubrication.
4.2. Inspection/Servicing
WARNING
Before any repair work, pull the mains plug or remove the
battery! This work may only be performed by qualified personnel.
The REMS reciprocating saws with universal motor have carbon b rushes.
These are subject to wear and must therefore be inspected or replaced from
time to time by an authorised REMS after-sales service facility. See also section
6. Action in case of trouble.
5. Wiring
On REMS Akku-Cat ANC VE, make sure that the positive pole of the motor
(connector piece on plastic base with nose) is connected with the red wire to
the switch clip 1. The rotation lever at the switch has to be set to the rear
(towards the mounting surface of the cooling block).
6. Action in Case of Trouble
6.1. Trouble: Reciprocating saw comes to a stop during cutting,
overload protection activated (REMS Tiger ANC).
Cause: ● Feeding pressure too high.
● Blunt saw blade.
● Unsuitable saw blade (see 2.4.).
● Worn carbon brushes.
● Insufficient operating pressure (Tiger ANC pneumatic).
● Battery empty (REMS Akku-Cat ANC VE).
6.2. Trouble: Does not cut square on pipes with guide support.
Cause: ● Unsuitable saw blade (see 2.4.).
● Blunt saw blade.
● Prism of guide support dirty (chips!).
6.3. Trouble: Reciprocating saw does not start.
Cause: ● Overload protection has activated (REMS Tiger ANC).
● Defective power cable.
● Battery empty (REMS Akku-Cat ANC VE).
● Defective drive unit.
6.4. Trouble: Centering pin shears off, saw blade cannot be adequately
clamped.
Cause: ● Clamping screw (9) worn, socket wrench worn (see 2.5).
