Sawing - Festool TS 75 EQ Manual De Instrucciones

Never position large or long workpieces so that
they bend in the middle or at the cutting face. This
can lead to the saw blade jamming and recoiling.
Instead, support the workpiece with several
wooden battens (12.2), particularly in the vicinity
of the cutting face.

Sawing

13.1 13.2
The machine must reach full speed
before cutting begins and should only be switched
off once cutting has fi nished.
Only operate the saw away from
you (pushing the circular saw forwards, 13.3)
and never towards you (pulling the circular saw
backwards). If you saw towards you, there is the
danger that the circular saw might be accelerated
out of the cutting groove (recoil) and cause serious
injury.
A) Sawing sections:
- Place the front part of the saw bench on the
workpiece. The cutting indicator (13.2) displays
the cutting line for 0° and 45° cuts (without
guide rail).
- Switch the machine on, and press the saw down
to the set cutting depth.
- Push the machine in the direction of cut. Take
care that the saw bench remains fi rmly on the
workpiece.
- Switch the machine off when cutting is
completed.
B) Plunge cuts:
following in structions absolutely must be observed
when plunge cutting:
12.2
- The machine must always be placed with the rear
edge of the saw table against a fi xed stop.
When working with the guide rail, the tool must
be placed at the kickback stop (14.2), which is
fi rmly clamped on the guard rail. When not in
use, the kickback stop can be kept in safe keeping
at the guide plate (14.1) of the machine.
- The machine must always be held securely with
both hands and only plunged slowly.
Procedure: place the machine onto the workpiece
and position it against a stop (kickback stop),
13.3 switch the machine on, slowly press it down onto
the set cutting depth and push it forward in the
cutting direction.
The markings (13.1) display the absolute front
and the absolute rear cutting points of the saw
blade (dia. 160 mm) at maximum cutting depth
and using the guide rail.
C)
measures must be taken for safety reasons:
• Pre-connect a residual current circuit-breaker.
• Connect the machine to a suitable dust
extractor.
• Clean the machine regularly of dust deposits in
the motor housing and in the protective cover.
• Wear protective goggles.
• Aluminium must only be sawed with the special
saw blades from Festool designed for this
purpose.
• When sawing panels, they must be lubricated
with petroleum, thin-walled profi les (up to 3
mm) can be sawed without lubrication.
