Electrical Connection - Scheppach Structo 5.0 Translation From The Original Instruction Manual

Assembly of the fence, Fig. 5.2
1 Screw the spacer plate to the fence with two sau-
cer-head screws M 6 x 50, two washers 6 mm, and
two wing nuts M 6. Do not tighten!
2 Insert the stop rail and tighten it.
3 Insert the fence into the clamping device.
Tighten = Raise clamping flap
Release = Press clamping flap down
4 Place the fence into the clamping device.
Position 1 = High fence surface
Position 2 = Low fence surface
Mount the cross-cutting gauge, Fig. 5.1
1 Put a saucer-head screw M 8 x 70 from below
through the square tube into the cross-cutting
gauge and tighten with washer 8 mm and handle.
2 Set the swinging part (3) in the square tube at a
right angle to the sawblade using the hexagon bolt
(2). Use a right-angle gauge to this purpose, and
subsequently make a trial cut.
Crane bow, Fig. 6
The two crane bows (6) are fitted diagonally to each
other. On the two crane bows, carrying belts can be
attached for supporting the machine on a crane.
Sawblade guard, Fig. 7
• The sawblade guard is fitted ready for use.
• The sawblade guard is a protecting device and
must always be fitted.
• Make sure the guard always lies on the table top
by its own weight, but that the two bolts are tight-
ened without play.
Setting the riving knife, Fig. 3 + 8
• The clearance between sawblade and riving knife
must not exceed 8 mm.
After every sawblade change check the clearance
and re-adjust, if necessary. The riving knife tip must
not be lower than the base of the uppermost tooth.
We recommend a maximum setting of 5 mm under-
neath the upper sawing tooth tip.
If necessary, correct as follows (Fig. 8.1):
1 Release the 4 hexagon bolts (2).
2 Adjust the riving knife.
3 Retighten the hexagon bolts (2).
The riving knife is an important protective device
for guiding the work piece and closing the gap
behind the sawblade, thus avoiding the kick-back
of the work piece. Mind the thickness of the riv-
ing knife – see the embossed figures on the riv-
ing knife. The riving knife must not be thinner than
the sawblade and not thicker than the width of the
cutting gap.
Fig. 9
The riving knife must be in line with the sawblade.
Correct any difference as follows:
1 Release two hexagon bolts (1) each on both sides.
2 Align the riving knife vertically.
3 Slightly tighten the hexagon bolts (1).
4 Adjust the riving knife in line with the sawblade,
and retighten the four hexagon bolts.
5 Check the clearance to the sawblade.

Note:
If, at switching off, the brake lacks efficiency, it must
be examined by a specialist or replaced. A defective
push stick must be replaced.

10. Electrical connection

The installed electrical motor is connected ready to
operate. The connection complies with the relevant
VDE- and DIN-regulations.
The power supply as well as the used extension cable
should comply with these regulations.
Motor-brake facility
Your construction circular saw is equipped with an
automatically functioning deadlock brake. The brake
starts functioning after switching off the motor. After
the motor is switched off, the saw blade must come
to a standstill after 8 - 10 seconds.
Note the following:
The Structo 5.0 - WE (230V) is equipped with an elec-
tronic brake.
The Structo 5.0 - DR (400V) is equipped with a me-
chanical brake.
Important information
The electrical motor is made for operating mode S
6 / 40 % .
When the motor gets overcharged, it automatically
switches off. After a short cool-down period (time var-
ies) the motor can be switched on again.
Defective electrical power supply cords
Electrical power supply cords often suffer insolation
damages. Causes are:
• Pressure spots, when power supply cords are be-
ing led through windows or doors.
• Buckling spots by incorrect attachment or guidance
of the power supply cords.
• Cuttings by driving over a power supply cord.
• Insulation damages through pulling out of the sock-
et.
• Cracks in worn-out insulation.
Such defective electrical power supply cords should
not be used and are extremely dangerous because
of the insulation damage.
Check electrical power supply cords for damages on
a regular basis. Please observe that upon checking
the power supply cord is not plugged in. Electrical
power supply cords have to comply with the relevant
VDE - and DIN-regulations. Only use power cables
with the qualification H 07 RN. An imprint of the type
denomination is rule.
Alternating current motor
• The supply voltage should be 230 Volt/50 Hz.
• Extension cables must be up to 25 m long, have
a cross cut of 1.5 square millimeter, be over 25 m
long, and have a minimum 2.5 square millimeter.
• The powersupply should be 16 A.
Rotary current motor
• The power supply should be 400 Volt/50 Hz.
• The power supply and the extension cables must
be 5-fold leads = 3 P + N + SL.
