Warning!
Depending on the operating conditions while operating the
device, the actually occurring emissions could differ from the
values specified above!
Please bear in mind that the vibration and noise emission can
deviate from the values given in these instructions, depending
on the conditions of use of the tool. This is especially applica-
ble in dependence on the work piece to be machined and the
utilised saw blade and its wear condition. Always ensure you
have an adequately sharp saw blade and a well-maintained
drive. Poorly maintained tools, inappropriate working meth-
ods, different work pieces, too high a feed or unsuitable work
pieces or materials or unsuitable bits and cutters (here: saw
blade) can significantly increase the vibration load and noise
emission across the entire work period.
To more accurately estimate the actual vibration and noise
load, also take the times into consideration where the device
is switched off, or is running but is not actually in use. This can
clearly reduce the vibration and noise load across the entire
work period.
Warning:
• To reduce vibrations, make sure your tool and the cutting
disc or the saw blade are in proper condition!
• Ensure regular and proper maintenance of your tool
• Stop operation of the tool immediately if excessive vibration
occurs!
• Unsuitable bits and cutters (here e.g. cutting disc or saw
blade) can cause excessive vibration and noises. Only use
suitable bits and cutters!
• Take breaks if necessary when working with the device!
Please note that the sound and vibration measurements in
particular have been performed with Proxxon bits and cutters.
When using third-party brands we cannot guarantee compli-
ance with the statements given here!
Only use in the house
Do not dispose of the device in
household waste
Your fingers and hands should not come near the saw
blade or within the sawing range.
Risk of injury!
Never work without dust protection mask and
safety glasses. Some dusts have a hazardous
effect! Materials containing asbestos may not be machined!
For your safety, always wear hearing protection while
working!
6. Setting up the saw
6.1. Unpacking
Caution!
Please note that transport blocks have been attached to the
device during packing to avoid damage during transportation.
Make sure you remove all of them before commissioning!
Carefully read through the instructions and especially observe
the following chapter!
A transport block made of cardboard is inserted on the inside
of the saw. This must be removed before initial commissioning.
How to swing up the upper housing part is explained in the
following chapter.
6.2. Swinging open the upper housing part
Caution!
Always use extreme caution if the work requires you to swing
up the upper housing part of the saw: You could be injured (e.g.
crush injury) if the upper housing part drops down accidentally
or is closed carelessly!
1. Please open the packaging box to unpack, carefully remove
the saw and deposit it on a firm and level surface.
2. Release the knurled screw 1 (fig. 2) and swing up the upper
housing part 2.
3. Permit the latch 3 to engage.
4. Before first commissioning, remove the cardboard that was
used as safeguard during the transport.
5. Release the latch 3 of the support and push the upper hous-
ing part back down. Caution! Hold on to the upper part when
pushing down! Injuries might be caused if the upper part
drops down unchecked.
6. Retighten knurled screw 1.
6.3. Fastening the saw
Attention:
When transporting the saw, the saw blade must be retracted in
the housing (see Chapter 6.1: Height adjustment of the saw
blade). Transport the saw only by carrying it by the housing bot-
tom. Do not hold the attachment parts to carry the saw: These
could break off and cause the saw to drop. Risk of injuries!
Generally the saw must be set up on a fixed and level surface,
ideally on a heavy workbench or a solid table. To obtain a
secure hold, your FET should be screwed to the surface: For
this purpose there are four holes in the housing bottom so that
fastening screws can be screwed into them.
Note:
Safe and precise work is only possible with careful fastening!
Therefore, please proceed as follows:
Caution!
Make sure the mains plug is disconnected!
1. Swing up the upper part of the saw
2. Permit the latch to engage
3. Now you can see four hexagonal indentations on the inside
above the four screw holes in the housing bottom, see fig.
3. These are intended to receive M5 hexagon nuts, or the
heads of M5 hexagon screws. Insert sufficiently long screws
2 from inside through the opening in the housing bottom and
bolt them through the drill holes that you previously drilled
in the underlay 3.
Use a drilling template for the required hole spacing. You will
find a sketch with the dimensions at fig. 4.
4. Then release the latch of the support and push the upper
housing part back down.
5. Do not forget to tighten the knurled screw 1 (fig. 2)!
