Using The Saw - EINHELL TC 2225 U Manual De Instrucciones

7. Using the saw

7.1. ON/OFF switch (Fig. 1, 16 / Item 11)
•
The On/Off switch is covered by an additional
cap. This has to be opened to switch on the
saw.
•
To turn the saw on, press the green button
„I“. Wait for the blade to reach its maximum
speed of rotation before commencing with
the cut.
•
To turn the equipment off again, press the red
button „0“.
7.2. Cutting depth (Fig. 1, 16)
Turn the crank (10) to set the blade (4) to the re-
quired cutting depth.
Turn anti-clockwise:
smaller cutting depth
Turn clockwise:
larger cutting depth
7.3 Parallel stop
The parallel stop (7) has to be used when making
longitudinal cuts in wooden workpieces.
7.3.1 Stop height (Fig. 18, 19)
•
The parallel stop (7) which is supplied with
the product must be used together with the
stop rail (23) when performing longitudinal
cuts on thin materials (Fig. 19a).
•
To fasten the stop rail (23) to the parallel
stop (7) you have to slacken the two knurled
screws (26). Then thread the stop rail (23)
with the slot (27) onto the screws (18) and
secure it with the knurled screws (26).
•
The parallel stop (7) has to be used without
the stop rail (23) when making longitudinal
cuts in thicker wooden workpieces (Fig. 19b).
To do this, the screws (18) and the knurled
screws (26) must also be removed.
•
Warning! When in use, the stop rail (23) must
always be screwed to the side of the parallel
stop (7) which faces the saw blade.
7.3.2. Cutting width (Fig. 17)
•
The parallel stop (7) can be mounted on eit-
her side of the saw table (1).
•
The parallel stop (7) has to be mounted in the
guide rail (28) of the saw table (1).
•
The parallel stop (7) can be set to the requi-
red dimension with the help of the scale (22)
on the guide rail (28).
GB
•
You can clamp the parallel stop in the requi-
red position by pressing the eccentric lever
(12).
7.3.3. Setting the stop length (Fig. 17, 18)
•
The stop rail (23) can be moved in longitudi-
nal direction in order to prevent the workpiece
from becoming jammed.
•
Rule of thumb: The rear end of the stop co-
mes up against an imaginary line that begins
roughly at the center of the blade and runs at
an angle of 45° to the rear.
•
Set the required cutting width
- Slacken the knurled screws (26) and push
the stop rail (23) forward until it touches the
imaginary 45° line.
- Retighten the knurled screws (26).
Warning! The gap between the saw table (1) and
the underside of the stop rail (23) must not be
too large in order to prevent the material getting
jammed. To adjust the distance, the parallel stop
(7) must be fastened rst using the eccentric lever
(12). Then slacken the knurled screws (26), lower
the stop rail (23) down to the saw table (1) and
secure the knurled screws (26) again afterwards.
7.4 Cross stop (Fig. 20)
The cross stop (14) has to be used when making
cross cuts in wooden workpieces.
•
Slide the cross stop (14) into the slot (21) of
the saw table.
•
Undo the locking screw (20).
•
Turn the stop rail (24) until the arrow points to
the angle required.
•
Re-tighten the fastening screw (20).
•
Check the gap between the stop rail (24) and
the saw blade (4).
•
Warning! Do not push the stop rail (24) too
far toward the blade. The distance between
the stop rail (24) and the blade (4) should be
approx. 2 cm.
•
If necessary, slacken the two knurled screws
(43) and adjust the stop rail (24).
•
Retighten the knurled screws (43).
7.5 Setting the angle of the saw blade
(Fig. 16)
•
Undo the locking grip (9).
•
To adjust the angle of the saw blade, press
the hand wheel (8) towards the machine and
turn it at the same time until the pointer (41)
is aligned with the desired angular setting on
the scale (42).
•
Secure the locking grip (9) again.
