Maintenance And Cleaning - Bort BPS-580-Q Manual

• Prevent dust accumulation at the workplace . Dusts can
easily ignite .
• Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage of the pow-
er 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 .
• To save energy, only switch the power tool on when
using it .
• The contact protector attached to the casing prevents
accidental touching of the saw blade during the work-
ing procedure and may not be removed .
• Before sawing in wood, particle boards, building mate-
rials etc ., check for foreign objects, such as nails, screws,
etc . and remove them as required .
• Plunge cuts may only be applied to soft materials, such
as wood, gypsum board, etc . For plunge cuts, use only
short saw blades .
• The sliding shoe can prevent the surface from being
scratched . The splinter guard can prevent fraying of
the surface while sawing wood . Do not use the splinter
guard for mitre cuts .
• Adapt the settings of your power tool to the respective
application . For example, reduce the stroke rate and or-
bital action when cutting metal or for tight curved cuts .
• For long and straight cuts in thick wood (>40 mm), the
cutting line can become inaccurate . In this case, using a
circular saw is recommended to achieve accurate cuts .
• In extreme conditions, always use dust extraction as far
as possible . Blow out ventilation slots frequently and
install a portable residual current device (PRCD) . When
working metals, conductive dust can settle in the inte-
rior of the power tool . The total insulation of the power
tool can be impaired .

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Make sure that the machine is not live when
carrying out maintenance work on the motor .
• Regularly clean the machine housing with a soft cloth,
preferably after each use . Keep the ventilation slots free
from dust and dirt .If the dirt does not come off use a soft
cloth moistened with soapy water . Never use solvents
such as petrol, alcohol, ammonia water, etc . These sol-
vents may damage the plastic parts .
• Lubricate the guide roller occasionally with a drop of oil .
• Should a fault occur, e .g . after wear of a part, please con-
tact your local BORT GLOBAL LIMITED dealer .
