Setting For Bevel Cuts; Sawing According To Tracings; Sawing With The Parallel Stop (Special Accessories); Service And Maintenance - Mafell MS 55 Manual De Instrucciones Original

Always set the cutting depth
approx. 2 to 5 mm (1/16 to 3/16 in.)
larger than the material thickness
to be cut.

5.4 Setting for bevel cuts

For bevel cuts, the saw unit can be set to any angle
between 0 and 45°.

Unfasten the wing screws 10 (Fig. 1).

Adjust the angle according to the scale on the
segment for tilting.

Afterwards, tighten the wing screws 10.

5.5 Sawing according to tracings

The base plate is equipped with three tracing edges
17 (Fig. 3) for 0°, 30° and 45°. These tracing edges
correspond to the saw blade's inside. For diagonal
cuts, the marking can be viewed through the opening
on the left-hand side of the upper saw guard (arrow,
Fig. 1).

Hold the machine by its handles and place the
front part of its base plate onto the workpiece.

Switch on the portable circular saw (see chapter
5.2) and slide the machine evenly forward in the
direction of the cut.

When the cut is completed, switch off the saw
by releasing the switch trigger 2 (Fig. 1)
5.6 Sawing with the parallel stop (special
accessories)
The parallel stop serves to saw parallel to an already
existing edge. The limit stop can be attached both to
the left and right of the machine. The cutting range on
the right-hand side amounts to approx. 155 mm (6 1/8
in.) and on the left-hand side to approx. 280 mm (11
1/32 in.).
In addition, by simply turning it around (guide face for
the workpiece edge points upwards), the parallel stop
can also be used as double support to improve
guidance of the portable circular saw. Now the
machine can be guided along a guide that is fastened
on the workpiece.

Service and maintenance

Danger
Unplug the rechargeable battery for
all service work.
MAFELL machines are designed to be low in
maintenance.
The ball bearings used are greased for life. When the
machine has been in operation for a longer period of
time, we recommend to hand the machine in at an
authorised MAFELL customer service shop for
inspection.
Only use our special grease, order No. 049040 (1 kg
tin) for all greasing points.

6.1 Storage

If the machine is not used for a longer period of time,
it has to be carefully cleaned. Spray bright metal parts
with a rust inhibitor.

6.2 Transport

The contained lithium-ion batteries are subject to the
Dangerous Goods Legislation requirements. The user
can transport the batteries by road without further
requirements.
When being transported by third parties (e.g.: air
transport or forwarding agency), special requirements
on packaging and labelling must be observed. For
preparation of the item being shipped, consulting an
expert for hazardous material is required.
Dispatch batteries only when the housing is
undamaged. Tape or mask off open contacts and
pack up the battery in such a manner that it cannot
move around in the packaging.
Please also observe possibly more detailed national
regulations.

6.3 Disposal rechargeable batteries/batteries

The machine, rechargeable
batteries, accessories and
packaging should be sorted for
environmental-friendly recycling.
