TRANSPORT PROTECTION / MOVING THE PORTABLE CUT OFF
SAW
Secure the head in the lowest position for transportation.
• Use the handle (11) to press the head (19) in the lowest position
possible and secure with the head locking pin (18) (fig. A).
• When lifting the portable cut off saw hold the transport handle (8).
Do not carry the portable cut off saw when holding the handle (11).
VICE
Each piece of material must be well fixed in the vice before
cutting.
The split nut of vice screw (13) allows fast advance of the vice screw
(14) to move the sliding jaw (15) towards material without turning the
crank (12).
• Lift upper part of the split nut of vice screw (13).
• Slide the vice screw (14) to appropriate distance, so it is possible to
fix material between surfaces of jaws
• (15) and (16).
• Place material between jaws, slide the vice screw (14) back so the
sliding jaw (15) surface contacts the material (fig. B).
• Close upper part of the split nut of vice screw (13) to join thread with
the vice screw (14). Turn the crank
• (12) to tighten the material between jaws (fig. C).
OPERATION / SETTINGS
Ensure the portable cut off saw is disconnected from power
supply network before starting any adjustment task. To ensure
safe, precise and efficient cut off saw operation, proceed with all
adjustment procedures as a whole.
After finishing all the setting and adjustment procedures ensure
that all adjustment keys are collected. Check that all joining
elements are properly fitted.
When making adjustments ensure that all external parts work
properly and conform with all conditions necessary for proper
operation. Any worn out or damaged part must be replaced by
qualified personnel before starting to use the portable cut off
saw.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR CUTTING
• It is recommended to make a try cut after each adjustment to make
sure the new settings are correct and to check dimensions.
• After switching the portable cut off saw on, wait until cutting disc
reaches its top maximum speed while running idle, only then you can
proceed with cutting.
• Secure long objects from falling after cutting (e.g. with a roller
support).
• Be very careful when starting a cut!
• Wait until cutting disc comes to a complete stop, only then you can
remove cut off pieces.
SWITCHING ON / SWITCHING OFF
The mains voltage must match the voltage on the label of the cut
off saw.
Switch on the saw only when the material that is to be cut is away
from the cutting disc.
The portable cut off saw features safety switch (9) that protects
against accidental or unintentional start up.
Switching on
• Press the safety switch button (9).
• Press and hold the switch button (10) (fig. D).
Switching off
• Release pressure on the switch button (10).
CHECKING AND ADJUSTMENT OF CUTTING DEPTH
It is necessary to check maximal cutting depth to ensure the
cutting disc will cut the material completely. Set up the portable
cut off saw, so the lowest point of the cutting disc penetrates at
least 5 mm below upper surface of the base. Adjustments are
necessary to compensate for wear of the cutting disc.
Use the adjustment screw (21) to adjust head (19) travel downwards.
• Lower the head (19) and hold down pressed against head of the
adjustment screw (21).
• Loosen the lock nut and screw the adjustment screw (21) in or out if
necessary, so the cutting disc (3) position is correct (5 mm below
upper surface of the base (4)) (fig. E).
• Tighten the lock nut to secure the setting.
CUTTING
The return spring of the saw arm automatically moves the head
to upper position. Therefore, do not release pressure on the
