Cleaning, Maintenance And Ordering Of Spare Parts - HERKULES DS 405/2 E Manual De Instrucciones

6. Operation
6.1 Please note:
•
Your saw does not cut wood automatically.
For cutting to occur, you have to guide the
wood against the blade.
•
The teeth cut only on the down stroke of the
blade.
•
You have to guide the wood slowly against
the blade because the teeth are very small.
•
Every new user needs a certain training
period. You are certain to break a number of
blades at the beginning.
•
When cutting thick timber, be particularly
careful not to bend or twist the blade. This will
help to prolong blade life.
6.2 On/Off switch (Fig. 3 / Item 2)
•
Press the green button to switch the saw on.
•
Press the red button to switch the machine
off.
•
Please note: The machine is equipped with a
safety switch to prevent it being switched on
again accidentally after a power failure.
6.3 Blade speed regulator (3)
The blade speed regulator allows you to set the
blade speed appropriate to the material to be cut.
6.4 Carrying out internal cuts
1. A feature of this fretsaw is that it allows you to
carry out internal cuts in a panel without
damaging it on the outside or circumference.
Warning! To avoid injury from accidental star-
ting: Before you remove or change the blade,
always set the switch to „0" position and pull
the power plug out of the socket.
2. To carry out internal cuts in a panel: Remove
the blade as described in Section 5.3.2
3. Drill a hole in the panel in question.
4. Place the panel on the saw table with the
drilled hole above the access hole.
5. Install the blade through the hole in the panel
and adjust the blade tension.
6. When you have completed the internal cuts,
remove the blade from the blade holders (as
described in Section 5.3.2) and take the pa-
nel off the table.

7.1 Cleaning
•
Keep all safety devices, air vents and the
motor housing free of dirt and dust as far as
possible. Wipe the equipment with a clean
cloth or blow it with compressed air at low
pressure.
•
We recommend that you clean the device
immediately each time you have finished
using it.
•
Clean the equipment regularly with a moist
cloth and some soft soap. Do not use
cleaning agents or solvents; these could
attack the plastic parts of the equipment. En-
sure that no water can seep into the device.
7.2 Bearings
Lubricate the bearings of the guide rollers periodi-
cally with high-grade machine grease, but at least
after every 25-30 hours in operation.
7.3 Carbon brushes
In case of excessive sparking, have the carbon
brushes checked only by a qualifi ed electrician.
Important! The carbon brushes should not be
replaced by anyone but a qualifi ed electrician.
7.4 Maintenance
There are no parts inside the equipment which
require additional maintenance.
