Attaching The Additional Handle - Metabo KFM 15-10 F Manual Original

Do the following to reduce exposure to these
substances: ensure good ventilation of the
workplace and wear appropriate protective
equipment, such as respirators able to filter
microscopically small particles.
Observe the relevant guidelines for your material,
staff, application and place of application (e.g.
occupational health and safety regulations,
disposal).
Collect the generated particles at the source, avoid
deposits in the surrounding area.
Reduce dust exposure with the following measures:
- Do not direct the escaping particles and the
exhaust air stream at yourself or nearby persons
or on dust deposits.
- Use an extraction unit and/or air purifiers
- Ensure good ventilation of the workplace and
keep clean using a vacuum cleaner Sweeping or
blowing stirs up dust
- Vacuum or wash protective clothing Do not blow,
beat or brush.

6. Commissioning
Before commissioning, check that the rated
mains voltage and mains frequency, as stated
on the type plate match your power supply.
Always install an RCD with a maximum trip
current of 30 mA upstream.
6.1

Attaching the additional handle

Only work with attached bow handle (1) or side
handle (5) (depending on equipment)! Attach
the handle as shown (see page 2, Fig. A).
Attach bow handle (1)
- Fit locking discs (2) to the left and right of the
handle (1).
- Move the handle (1) with the locking discs (2) from
the front to the gear housing.
- Insert the thumb screws (3) to the left and right of
the handle (1) and turn gently.
- Adjust the handle (1) to the required angle.
- Firmly tighten the thumb screws (3) to the left and
right manually.
Attach side handle (5) (depending on
equipment, only for KFM 15-10 F, KFMPB 15-10
F):
When milling edges of small angles (setting
< 30°) depending on the working conditions it
may be advantageous to use the side handle (5)
rather than the bow handle (1). For larger angles,
always use the bow handle (1) so that you can hold
the machine securely.
- Attach the side handle (5) on the right or left side
of the machine and secure.
7. Setting
Pull the plug out of the socket before making
any adjustments, changing tools, carrying out
maintenance or cleaning.
Indexable inserts, holders for indexable
inserts, the workpiece and chips can be hot
after work. Wear protective gloves.
Danger of crushing! Wear protective gloves.
7.1 Setting the chamfer angle
1. Read the set angle on the scale (17).
2. Loosen the screws (13) and slide both chip
protection plates (14) (on the left and right of the
machine) upwards.
3. Loosen the screws (18) (front and back) and set
the chamfer angle to the desired angle by
turning the guide rail (15). Read the set chamfer
angle on the scale (17).
4. Firmly tighten the screws (18) (front and back).
5. Slide both chip protection plates (14) (on the left
and right of the machine) all the way down.
Tighten the screws (13) (on the left and right of
the machine).
6. Changing the chamfer angle also changes the
chamfer height (due to the design). Therefore,
also set the chamfer height again every time you
adjust the chamfer angle. See chapter 7.2
7.2 Setting the chamfer height
Set the chamfer angle first:
1. First check that the desired chamfer angle is set:
read the set chamfer angle on the scale (17).
Adjust if necessary. See chapter 7.1
