Your sawing machine is equipped with a motor protection
obtained through a amperometric limiter which prevents the
motor from absorbing a current higher than the set one,
expressed by the maximum prescribed value of absorption.
If the limiter triggers while the machine is operating, slightly
diminish the cutting pressure. This enables to safeguard
the life and performance of the blade as well as to always
obtain a clean and precise cut.
2.4
POSITION/WORK STATION (Fig. 2)
Position the machine by moving it as described in
paragraph 2.2 on to a suffi ciently level bench, in such a
way that the coolant can refl ow in the collecting tank during
the cutting operations.
Taking the ergonomic criteria into consideration, the ideal
height shall be that which enables you to position the
table between 90 and 95 centimetres from the fl oor (see
Fig. 2).
Now, cut the strap which holds the body lowered and
remove the wooden cap which protects the machine
while in transit.
CAUTION: Read attentively the two labels on the
handgrip before starting any operation.
CAUTION: Make sure that the machine is placed
in a working area with suitable environmental
conditions and lighting. The general conditions
of the working environment are of fundamental
importance for accident prevention.
INDUCTION VERSION (Fig. 5)
Now lift the machine body and fit the eyelet of the
suspension tie rod A into its housing on the pin B, then
place the elastic ring C into the relative groove on the same
pin to stop the tie rod coming out.

ADJUSTING
3.1
TENSION OF THE BLADE (Fig. 4)
Turn the handwheel clockwise B till the green indicator
lights C up.
WARNING: The tensioning device is equipped
with a safety microswitch which prevents the
machine from operating till the blade is tensioned
correctly.
3.2
BAR STOP (Optional) (Fig. 6)
Use the bar stop if you have to do several cuts on pieces
of the same length.
In this way you do not have to repeat the same measurement
each time.
Before adjust the bar stop, be sure the main switch B (Fig.
8-3) is in 0 position.
Screw rod A into the hole of the vice and fasten it with nut B
Slacken the handwheel C and place the stop D at the correct
distance from the blade. Tighten handwheel C again.

3.3
CUTTING ANGLE (Fig. 7)
The machine can effect cuts ranging from 0° to 60°.
To unlock the body rotation, release the handle A on the
rotating support.
Rotate the machine body to the left up to the stop which is
set to 60° by the manufacturer.
To have the stop set to 45°, loosen the handwheel E, pull
the bracket D till the end of stroke corresponding to the
end of the slot of the bracket and re-lock the handwheel
E. Now, when the machine body is turned to the left, the
stop is automatically at 45°.
To restore the stop at 60°, proceed as above described and
re-position the bracket D to its original position.
For all other inclinations, match the mark C of the rotating
support and the corresponding position on the plate B.
3.4
CUTTING SPEED (Fig. 8-3)
UNIVERSAL VERSION (Fig. 8)
Your sawing machine is equipped with CESC (Constant
Electronic Speed Control), which allows gradual and
continuous variation of the cutting speed, adapting it to the
type and dimension of the material to be cut (see cutting
table).
To select the most suitable speed, use the speed control
knob A to increase or decrease the speed as you require.
INDUCTION VERSION 2 SPEED (Fig. 3)
Use the speed variator B to select the most suitable cutting
speed according to the type and section of the material to
be cut (see CUTTING TABLE).
3.5
SLIDING BLADE GUIDE (Fig. 3)
The sliding blade guide D with integrated protection fi tted
on your sawing machine is used to perform the cut while
guiding the necessary part of the blade and fully protecting
the part not used in the cutting process. Slacken the knob
E and slide the blade guide D so as to move it closer to or
further from the part to be cut, as shown in the fi gure.
WARNING: If this adjustment is not done, the part
of the blade not used in the cutting process will
be exposed and this will create an extra risk of
contact, besides altering the quality of the cut.
3.6
BEARINGS BLADE GUIDE (Fig. 9)
The blade guides A on the outside of the sawing machine
are eccentric and adjustable so as to semplify blade
replacement and to keep it guided as its best.
They must always touch the blade slightly, so that they
rotate when the blade passes, but must not be completely
locked.
In order to approach or remove the eccentric blade guides,
gently turn the head of the screws B using a 10 mm.
wrench key.
