Afterwards, push the base plate 8 to the stop
toward the mains cable.
Tighten the screw 16 again.
The splinter guard 14 can not be inserted for
mitre cuts.
Offsetting the Base Plate (see figure D)
For sawing close to edges, the base plate 8
can be offset to the rear.
Completely unscrew the screw 16 using the
Allen key 5.
Take the base plate 8 off and remount it offset
again so that the screw 16 can be screwed into
the rear bolt hole 18.
Push the base plate 8 toward the positioning
pin/mark 17 until it engages. Now, tighten the
screw 16 again.
Sawing with the base plate 8 offset is possible
only with a mitre angle of 0°. In addition, the
parallel guide with circle cutter 21 (accessory)
as well as the splinter guard 14 may not be
used.
Sawdust Blower Device
With the air jet of the sawdust blower device
6, the cutting line can be kept free of dust and
chips.
Sawdust-blower setting I:
Low blow effect for sawing in metal and
operation with coolant/lubricant.
Sawdust-blower setting II:
Medium blow effect for sawing materials with
low chip removal rate, e. g., hardwood.
Sawdust-blower setting III:
Large blow effect for sawing materials with
high chip removal rate, e.g., softwood, plastic,
etc.
Starting Operation
• Observe correct mains voltage! The
voltage of the power source must agree
with the voltage specified on the nameplate
of the machine. Power tools marked with
230 V can also be operated with 220 V.
Switching On and Off
To start the machine, press the On/Off switch
3.
To lock the On/Off switch, keep it pressed and
additionally push the lock-on button 4.
To switch off the machine, release the On/Off
switch 3. When the On/Off switch 3 is locked,
press it first and then release it.
Controlling/Presetting the Stroke Rate (GST
85 PBE)
Increasing or reducing the pressure on the
On/Off switch 3 enables stepless stroke-rate
control of the switched-on machine.
Light pressure on the On/Off switch 3 results in
a low stroke rate. Increasing the pressure also
increases the stroke rate.
When the On/Off switch 3 is locked, it is not
possible to reduce the stroke rate.
W i t h t h e t h u m b w h e e l f o r s t r o k e r a t e
preselection 2, the stroke rate can be preset
and changed during operation.
A–B: Low stroke rate
C–D: Medium stroke rate
E: High stroke rate
The required stroke rate is dependent on the
material and the working conditions and can be
determined by a practical trial.
Reducing the stroke rate is recommended
when the saw blade engages in the material as
well as when sawing plastic and aluminium.
After longer periods of work at low stroke
rate, the machine can heat up considerably.
