PREPARATION FOR OPERATION

DUST EXTRACTION
Plunge cut track saw is equipped with dust extraction outlet (1) that
can be rotated, which allows for extraction of sawdust produced
when cutting. Whenever more efficient dust extraction is required
for health hazardous carcinogenic dusts, attach hose of suction
device to the dust extraction outlet (1).
USE OF THE GUIDE RAIL TRACK
Plunge cut track saw allows for guiding along the guide rail track
(23) (fig. A). The guide rail track features anti-slip foam (24) (fig. B)
on the bottom of the track to reduce risk of the track shifting during
work. Cutting edge is protected with edge rubber (25) to produce
clean cut. In the first cut excess of rubber on the edge is removed,
thus matching the rubber precisely to the cutting line. The plunge
cut track saw moves along the track thanks to the slide strips (26).
For greater cutting precision it is possible to join guide rails with
each other and fix to processed material.
Guide rails (23) can be joined together with the connecting rod (27)
(fig. C).
• Slide half of the connecting rod (27) into the fixing groove (28) in
one of the guide rails.
• Slide the other guide rail onto protruding part of the connecting
rod.
• Slide the guide rails together (fig. D).
• Turn the guide rails over and align the connecting rod (27) when
necessary, next tighten the pressing screws (29) (fig. E).
Fixing clamp can be used to attach guide rails to processed material
(30) (fig. F).
• Slide the fixing clamp (30) into the fixing groove (28).
• Set the guide rail position on the processed material and position
of the fixing clamp.
• Tighten the fixing clamp (30) to avoid moving of the guide rail.
• For stable position of the guide rail track, fix it with two fixing
clamps (30) on two opposite sides of the track and processed
material.
To guide the plunge cut track saw along the guide rail track (23),
slide the saw base edge (16) into the guiding groove (31) (fig. A) in
the guide rail track.
• Slide the base of the plunge cut track saw into the guide rail track.
• To allow for precise cuts, rotate eccentrically positioned
adjustment knobs to negate potential slack between base (16)
of the plunge cut track saw and the guide rail track (16) (fig. A).
Guide rails, connector rods and fixing clamps are not included
with the device. They are available for purchase separately.
OPERATION / SETTINGS
SWITCHING ON / SWITCHING OFF
The mains voltage must match the voltage on the rating plate of
the plunge cut track saw. Hold the device with both hands by both
handles when starting it up, because engine torque may cause
uncontrolled turn of the power tool. Remember that rotating
parts of the plunge cut track saw can rotate for some time after
the tool has been switched off.
Switch on the plunge cut track saw only when cutting blade is
away from the material that is to be cut.
Check condition of cutting blade before use of the power tool. Do
not use blades with dents, cracks or other damages. Immediately
replace blade that is worn out or damaged.
The lock button (10) serves two purposes:
• Protects the switch (11) from accidental start up.
• Prevents the cutting blade from accidental lowering.
Switching on:
• Move the lock button (10) up.
• Press the switch button (11) (fig. G).
Switching off:
• Release pressure on the switch button (11) to stop the power tool.
VOLTAGE INDICATOR
Power indicator (13) is located in the rear part of the main handle
body (2). It turns on to show that the power tool is connected to
mains power supply (fig. H).
ROTATIONAL SPEED CONTROL
Wheel for rotational speed control (15) is located at the bottom part
of the main handle (2) (fig. H). Control range is 1 to 7. Rotational
speed can be adjusted to the user's needs.
Wait a while after starting the power tool until the cutting blade
reaches its top speed, only then you can proceed with your work.
When working, do not use the switch of the power tool to switch it
on or off. You can operate the switch only when the cutting blade
has no contact with processed material.
CUTTING DEPTH ADJUSTMENT
Cutting depth gauge (21) indicates cutting depth on the cutting
depth scale (20).
To set up the depth, first loosen the cutting depth gauge knob (19)
shown on the picture, then press it in the direction as shown on fig.
I and move the gauge (smoothly, with no resistance from toothed
bar) to correct position on the cutting depth scale (20). When
working without guide rail track, read the cutting depth from marker
A. When the guide rail track is installed, read the cutting depth from
marker B of the cutting depth gauge (21). Difference in indication
is 5 mm.
The toothed bar allows for quick change of the depth setting. After
adjustment, tighten the cutting depth gauge knob (19).
CUTTING
Cutting line is defined by cutting line indicators (4) and (5).
To obtain the best possible cut quality, allow the cutting blade to
plunge approx. 5 mm below bottom surface of the material. When
setting cutting depth for material of known thickness, add 5 mm
correction. In addition to setting value on the scale, it is always
recommended to make a test cut or to check how the blade would
plunge at the material without switching on the power tool.
Before making a cut, put the front part of the plunge cut track saw
base (16) flat against the material.
• Switch on the power tool and allow the cutting blade to build up
speed to maximum value.
• Hold by both handles and slowly press in (overcome the spring
resistance). The cutting blade should lower towards material until
it stops on the limiter, as set up on the cutting depth scale (20).
• Once the cutting blade has plunged into material, you can start
cutting. Hold the cutting blade completely pressed down all the
time.
• After cutting switch off the power tool and allow the cutting blade
to stop completely. Then release pressure on the handle, so the
cutting blade can return to its upper position.
• Take the power tool off the processed piece.
When you reduce pressure on the handle when making a cut, the
cutting blade will travel upwards to its upper position as directed
by the return spring. This will reduce cutting precision.
