Cleaning - Scheppach HS115 Translation Of Original Instruction Manual

2. Lower the saw blade guard (2) onto the saw ta-
ble (5). When sawing, the saw blade guard (2) is
pushed up and away from the workpiece.
3. Press the workpiece tight against the transverse
stop (19).
4. Switch on the extraction system and then the cir-
cular table saw.
5. In order to carry out the cut, push the transverse
stop (19) and the workpiece towards the saw blade
(1).
12.4 Cutting narrow workpieces (fig. 35)
Longitudinal cuts of workpieces with a width of less
than 120 mm must always be made with the aid of a
push stick (10).
For short workpieces, the push stick (10) must be used
as soon as you start cutting.
1. Adjust the parallel stop (8) according to the height
of the workpiece and the required width (see 11.4).
2. Place your hands flat on the workpiece with your
fingers closed and slide it along the parallel stop
(8) into the saw blade (1).
3. Always slide the workpiece to the end of the riving
knife (3) using the push stick (10).
12.5 Cutting very narrow workpieces (fig. 36)
A wooden push block (30) must always be used for lon-
gitudinal cuts of very narrow workpieces with a width
50 mm and less.
The wooden push block (30) is not included in the
scope of delivery! (Available from an appropriate spe-
cialist retailer) Replace a worn wooden push block (30)
in good time.
During sawing, workpieces may become jammed
between the parallel stop (8) and the saw blade (1),
caught by the saw blade (1) and then ejected at speed.
For this reason, the lower guide surface of the parallel
stop (8) should be favoured (see fig. 26).
Shift the stop rail (8a) if required (see 11.4.2).
1. Adjust the parallel stop (8) according to the height
of the workpiece and the required width (see 11.4).
2. Use the wooden push block (30) to push the work-
piece against the stop rail (8a) and use the push
stick (10) to push the workpiece through to the end
of the riving knife (3).
12.6 Cutting chipboard
To prevent the cutting edges breaking when cutting
chipboard, proceed as follows:
The saw blade (1) must not be set higher than 5 mm
above the workpiece thickness (see also 11.2).

12.7 After sawing
1. Switch off the circular table saw first and then the
extraction system. The saw blade continues to run
for a longer time.
2. Disconnect the circular table saw from the mains
by pulling the mains plug out of the power socket.
3. Do not remove the cut waste on the saw table until
the saw blade has returned to its resting position.
4. Allow the circular table saw to cool down com-
pletely.
12.8 Removing jammed material
m WARNING
Danger of injury for fingers and hands due to sharp
edges
- Wear protective gloves.
• If the saw blade is jammed in the workpiece or oth-
er blockages occur, proceed as follows: Switch the
circular table saw off immediately and remove the
mains plug from the socket.
• Use protective gloves and do not touch the saw
blade with your bare hands.
