Before Beginning Work; Technical Data - Proxxon KGS 80 Manual

The round table itself is swivel-mounted: An angle of plus/minus 45°
produces all desired mitres and the scale on the right also enables
exact and easy monitoring of the angle setting. The round table has
serrations every 15°, but any and all "intermediate steps" can be set
and fixed with a clamping fixture. Crosscutting work pieces by us-
ing the limit stop is also possible with this device.
The saw head is kept in its upper home position by spring tension. Im-
portant: For even greater flexibility, the saw head can also be lateral-
ly adjusted on the side using a knurled screw. This minimises the
"free" length of the work piece outside the vice jaws, and for angle cuts
this ensures that the saw blade does not collide with the vice jaws.
For saw head operation, i.e. to swivel the saw head down while
working with the saw, the mechanical safety catch located on the
saw head in its home position must be unlocked for your safety. To
prevent accidental operation and therefore minimise the risk of in-
juries, the saw head is arrested in its upper position and can be un-
locked with a small lever at the horizontal grip.
This also unlocks the mechanical safety catch for the swivelling saw
blade protection: This folds itself up when the saw head is lowered
to the work piece. The ergonomically placed on/off button can then
be pressed easily and without risk.

Depending on the operating conditions while operating the device,
the actually occurring emissions could differ from the values
specified above!
Warning:
• To reduce vibrations, make sure your tool and the cutting disc or
the saw blade are in proper condition!
• Stop operation of the tool immediately if excessive vibration
occurs!

• An unsuitable cutting disc or unsuitable saw blade can cause
excessive vibrations. Use only the appropriate saw blades and
cutting discs!
• Take breaks if necessary when working with the device!
For use in dry environments only
Please do not dispose off the machine!

5 Before beginning work

Note:
Safe and precise work is only then possible if the device has been
properly fastened with screws to a worktop. There are drill holes in
the heel plate for this purpose.
Caution!
When fixing or transporting the device, always disconnect the mains
plug!
Danger!
Never operate the crosscut and mitre saw without wearing protec-
tive goggles!
Never use the crosscut and mitre saw to cut materials other than
wood, non-ferrous metals or plastics.
Only choose saw blades suitable for the material to be cut.
6 Working with the KGS 80 Crosscut and mitre saw
6.1 Cutting capacity
Work can begin after the device has been fixed to a stable base. Ad-
ditional preparations are not necessary and the work piece to be sep-
arated can be clamped into the vice and cut in two. Please note the
following maximum sizes in dependence on the sawing angle:
Cutting capacity at 90°
(right-angled cut):
For mate- Maximum Round
rial thick- material material:
nesses up width (in (in mm)
to (in mm) mm)
10 65
18 50
21 40
25 25 Ø max. 25
How to read the table:
If, for example, you would like to cut a 30 mm squared timber in two
at a 45° angle, it may only have a maximum depth of 10 mm. Please
note that these are only standard values.
Caution:
Risk of injury! Work pieces that have been clamped too short
could tear loose and fly about!
Please ensure that the work piece is always securely clamped in
the vice while you are working! Make sure you have sufficient
