User manual KRESS CST 500 E

[. . . ] Do not drill holes into the housing to label the machine. Always lead cables away towards the back of the machine. Double insulation Our equipment is designed in accordance with European regulations (EN standards) for the utmost safety of the user. Machines with double insulation always carry the international symbol. [. . . ] The switched-on jigsaw is placed on the work piece at an angle of 55­60° to the front edge of the base plate and pushed down slowly and carefully. Particular care is required at the start of this work; kick-backs and jerks will result if the jigsaw is placed the wrong way, whilst excessively fast plunge cuts may result in broken blades. 4 Mitre cuts The base plate can be adjusted in both directions by 22. 5° and 45° angles can be fixed securely. adjustments are made by loosening the clamping wheel (6) beneath the handle. As soon as the toothed wheel work of the saw bench mounting is released, the base plate (4) can be turned to positions 22. 5° or 45° and be tightened again with the clamping wheel (6). Full-wave control electronics The stroke number range can be varied infinitely between 700 and a maximum of 3600/min. And be adjusted to suit the requirements of the material being worked (full rating for every stroke number). Adjustments are made using the setting dial (2) at the front of the handle. The setting can be changed at any time during operation. Recommended stroke numbers Low stroke number when sawing glass, ceramics, metal. High stroke number when working hardwood, soft wood and chipboard. The optimal speed setting is to be determined in tests at the beginning of the sawing job, as several factors such as material, thickness of material, condition of the saw blade, may influence the results of the job. Pendulum stroke setting The change-over from setting 0 to II is effected by means of the pendulum-stroke adjusting knob (turning knob). II for hardwood, soft wood, chipboard It should be noted that the values given are standard values which may vary according to thickness and hardness of material, grain direction, and also to the condition of the saw blade. Parallel fence (optional accessory) For perfect results with parallel cuts, use the graduated parallel fence (11). Once the clamping wheel (6) is loosened, the parallel fence (11) is inserted from the side into the slot in the base plate (4), set according to scale, and fixed with the clamping wheel (6). Chip-flyoff guard The synthetic part is placed into the saw opening of the base plate from below (snap fastening). The wood fibre structure is thereby pressed during sawing against this chip-flyoff guard, thus preventing the wood fibres from being damaged. This application can only be used when cutting at a right angle (90°). dust extractor The jigsaw is equipped to be connected to a commerically available vacuum cleaner.
