may change according to how the electric equip-
ment is used and may exceed the specifi ed value
in exceptional circumstances.
The specifi ed vibration value can be used to
compare the equipment with other electric power
tools.
The specifi ed vibration value can be used for initi-
al assessment of a harmful eff ect.
Keep the noise emissions and vibrations to a
minimum.
•
Only use appliances which are in perfect con-
ditions.
•
Service and clean the appliance regularly.
•

Residual risks
Even if you use this electric power tool in
accordance with instructions, certain resi-
dual risks cannot be rules out. The following
hazards may arise in connection with the
equipment's construction and layout:
1. Lung damage if no suitable protective dust
mask is used.
2. Damage to hearing if no suitable ear protec-
tion is used.
3. Health damage caused by hand-arm vib-
rations if the equipment is used over a pro-
longed period or is not properly guided and
maintained.
5. Before starting the equipment
Before you connect the equipment to the mains
supply make sure that the data on the rating plate
are identical to the mains data.
Warning!
Always pull the power plug before making
adjustments to the equipment.
•
Unpack the metal cutting-off machine and
check it for damage which may have occurred
in transit.
•
Make sure the machine stands securely, i.e.
bolt it to a workbench or solid base.
•
All covers and safety devices have to be pro-

perly fitted before the equipment is switched
on.
•
The spark deflector must be turned out of the
transport position in the direction of the arrow
until a gap forms between the base plate and
the spark deflector. (Fig. 10)
•
The cutting wheel must rotate smoothly.
•
Before you actuate the ON/OFF switch, make
sure that the cutting-off wheel is correctly
fitted and that the machine's moving parts run
smoothly.
•
Undo the interlock (13).
6. Operation
Important! Always pull out the power plug
before carrying out maintenance, resetting or
assembly work.
6.1 Transport brace / carry-handle (Fig. 1 / 2)
•
Push down the saw head (1) by the handle
(2) and pull out the interlock (13).
•
Slowly raise the saw head (1). Important!
The resetting spring lifts the saw head (1)
automatically. Therefore, do not simply let go
of the handle (2) after cutting, but allow the
saw head (1) to rise slowly by applying slight
counterpressure.
•
Fig. 1 shows the saw head (1) in its upper
position.
•
Whenever you want to transport the machine
you should use the interlock (13) to anchor
the saw head (1) again in its lower position.
•
The saw is equipped with a carry-handle (8)
to make it easier to transport.
6.2 Vise (Fig. 3)
Every workpiece must be fastened in the vise (15)
before it is cut.
•
Flip up the top half of the nut (a).
•
Pull out the spindle (5) far enough for the
workpiece to be clamped between the clam-
ping faces (4/7) of the vise (15).
Note: There is no need to turn the spindle
(5) when the top half of the nut (a) has been
fl ipped up. The spindle (5) can be pulled out
or pushed in to the exact amount required.
•
Push forward the spindle (5) to the point
where the clamping face (4) touches the
workpiece.
•
Flip down the top half of the nut (a) again so
that the spindle (5) and both halves of the nut
engage with each other.
