Adjusting the pendulum stroke

In order to saw different materials with the proper
rate of advance the pendulum stroke can be adjust-
ed. Set the required stroke via the pendulum stroke
switch [1-11]:
Position 0 = pendulum stroke disabled
Position 3 = maximum pendulum stroke
Recommended pendulum stroke setting
Softwood, chip board, wood fibreboard
Blockboard, plywood, plastic
Ceramics
Aluminium, non-ferrous metals
Steel, hardwood

Stroke speed control

The number of strokes can be adjusted steplessly
with the adjusting wheel [1-5] between 1500 and
-1
3800 min (PSBC 420 EB: 1000 - 3800 min
enables you to optimise the cutting speed to suit the
respective material.
In position A, the automatic load detection is acti-
vated: The stroke speed is reduced in no-load oper-
ation and is restricted to the highest value when the
blade enters the workpiece.
Recommended stroke speed (position of the
adjusting wheel)
Hard and soft wood, plywood board, ply-
wood, chip board
Hardboard

On a level surface, slide in the splinterguard
(not using your hand!) while the machine is op-
erating until it is level with the front edge of the
saw base (speed setting 5). This breaks in the
splinterguard.
 If machine shows obvious signs of wear, push
the splinterguard approx. 3 mm further to the
rear and continue using it.

 To guarantee reliable operation of the splinter-
guard, it must seal tightly on both sides of the
saw blade. A new splinterguard should there-
