The warranty period for the MS500 is 12 months. 1.5. Operation principle and design The circular saw consists of the following elements: fixed table, body, spindle, top guard, electrical system, auxiliary table, undercutting spindle, angular ruler.
The spindle assembly consists of the following mechanisms: a tilting and lifting mechanism of the spindle and a drive system (motor + belt transmission). The drive of the spindle tilting and lifting mechanism is carried out manually by means of wheels located on the body. The angular value and lifting height of the circular saw blade is indicated on inertia indicators mounted on handwheels.
2.2. Obligations of the employer and operating personnel The employer shall only allow persons to operate the saw if they: have familiarised themselves with the basic regulations on work safety and accident prevention and are prepared to use the circular saw, have read and understood the chapter on occupational safety and warning information in this instruction manual, having confirmed this with their own signatures, have had their operating competencies in such activities as assembly, commissioning, operation,...

Indirect protective operations Always keep this instruction manual at the place of use. As an addition to the operating instructions, generally applicable and local rules for accident prevention and environmental protection must be drawn up and fully complied with.
b) main switch - by operation test, c) emergency stop - by means of operation test, d) suction nozzle switch - with the machine tool switched off, open the cover of the lower suction cup and press the START button, the machine should not start 2.9.
2.12. Making design modifications to your circular saw No changes, retrofitting or modifications may be made to the circular saw without the manufacturer's consent. All activities related to the reconstruction of the sawing machine require the absolute written consent of "REMA”. When replacing worn parts, use only original spare parts.
3.3. Control during take-over by the customer After receiving the shipment and carefully unpacking the saw, check its external condition and contents in the box of parts disassembled according to the shipping specifications (see point 4.2). We accept notifications and documentation of damage caused during transport in accordance with generally applicable regulations.

5.2. Set-up Place the saw on the concrete foundation, as shown in the following figure and secure it with four anchored bolts. Concrete on the foundation should be made in class B15. After placing the circular saw on the foundation, level it with accuracy of 0.3/1000mm. 4 regulation points 4x ø...
5.6. Processing features of the circular saw You can do the following on your MS500: a) at the longitudinal ruler: longitudinal sawing of sawn timber, sawing small and medium-size laminated boards and carpentry boards, sawing narrow and thin slats at the lower side of the aluminium section.
"O" - operation without the undercutting spindle - the undercutting spindle saw should be lowered below the working surface of the table, "I" - operation with the undercutting spindle, start the saw by pressing the button switching on the main spindle Check that: the direction of rotation of the circular saw blades corresponds to the direction marked with the arrow on the top guard of the saw blade, and in the case of discrepancies see point A.2.1.
The thickness of the riving knife must be matched to the thickness of the circular saw blade and must fit between the width of the kerf and the thickness of the body of the sawing machine acc. to 5.2.5a PN- EN1870-1.
6.1.5. Adjusting the angle of sawing in the horizontal plane by means of the angular ruler placed on the mobile table Set the angular ruler in the T-slot of the movable table in the correct position. Lock the angular ruler with the handle when the appropriate angle has been adjusted. Position the bumper on the angular ruler by locking it with the handle.
6.1.7. Cleaning the drawbar of the swivel bracket In case of uneven operation of the movable table, vibrations on the movable table, auxiliary table, clean the drawbar of the swivel bracket. To do so, follow the procedure: - lock the moving table with the handle "1", - unscrew the Allen screw "2"...

horizontal adjustment 6.1.10. Description of operation and adjustment of the brake Adjust the brake if you can see that there is no braking. It is done with the main saw blade dismantled. In order to make the adjustment it is necessary to: lower the spindle as far down as possible, open the rear body cover, use socket wrench no.
weld or solder the circular saw blade, brake the saw blade by lateral pressure after switching off the drive, keep hands within reach of the circular saw blade, open the guards before the saw stops and work with open guards and doors, machine materials containing foreign objects, In addition to the above, it is essential to: position the longitudinal ruler bar so that no jamming of the sawn material occurs during sawing,...
6.4. Changing tools Before changing the tools, turn off the machine with the main switch. Replacement of the circular saw blade of the main spindle: open the cover by removing the table inserts and lock the spindle with a wrench, use another wrench to unscrew the locking nut on the clamping flange and the circular saw blade (the left-hand thread), remove the clamping flange and the circular saw blade,...
The main saw blade with a diameter of Ø400 is designed to work without the undercutting spindle. 7. MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE 7.1.
