Scheppach HS254 Originalbetriebsanleitung Seite 44

• In case of previously machined wood, be aware of
any foreign bodies, such as nails or screws, etc.
• Before pressing the ON/OFF switch (13), make sure
that the saw blade (3) is fitted correctly, and that mov-
ing parts run smoothly.
• Only connect the machine to a correctly installed pro-
tective contact socket, with fuse protection of at least
16A.
10. Operation
10.1 Switch (Fig. 1)
10.1.1 On/off switch
1. To switch on the saw, press the "I" button on the
on/off switch (13). Wait until the saw blade (3) has
reached its maximum speed before starting sawing.
2. To switch off the saw, press the "0" button on the on/
off switch (13).
10.1.2 Overload protection (Fig. 1)
In the event of overloading, the motor will switch itself
off. After a cool-down period (time varies) the motor can
be switched back on again.
1. Allow the product to cool.
2. Press the reset button (10).
3. Switch the machine back on as described in 11.1.1.
10.2 Setting the cutting depth (Fig. 1)
The saw blade (3) can be adjusted to the required cut-
ting depth by turning the hand wheel (12).
• Clockwise: Greater cutting depth
• Counter-clockwise: Smaller cutting depth
Check the setting with a test cut.
10.3 Setting the cutting angle (Fig. 14, 17, 18)
Angled cuts of 0 ° to 45 ° to the left of the parallel stop (6)
can be carried out with the circular table saw.
m Before making every cut, check that no collision can
occur between the parallel stop (6), mitre gauge (21) and
the saw blade (3).
1. Release the angle adjustment clamp (11).
2. Push the hand wheel (12) and turn it at the same
time to set the required angle on the scale.
3. Lock the angle adjustment clamp (11) in the re-
quired angle position.

10.4 Using the parallel stop
10.4.1 Stop height (Fig. 15)
• The stop rail (5) of the parallel stop (6) has two guide
surfaces at different heights.
• Depending on the thickness of the material to be cut,
the stop rail (5) must be used for thick material (work-
piece thickness exceeding 25 mm) and thin material
(workpiece thickness below 25 mm).
10.4.2 Adjusting the stop rail (Fig. 11, 15)
1. In order to move the stop rail (5) to the lower guide
surface, loosen the two wing nuts (6b) to release
the stop rail (5) from the parallel stop (6).
2. Pull the stop rail (5) along the groove and out.
3. Turn the stop rail (5) and insert the sliding blocks
along the second groove.
4. Shifting to the higher guide surface must be carried
out in the same way.
10.4.3 Changing the side of the parallel stop (Fig.
11, 15)
1. Unscrew the wing nuts (6b) fully.
2. Remove the stop rail (5) and reinsert the carriage
bolts (6d) on the opposite side of the parallel stop (6).
3. Replace the washers (6c) and the wing nuts (6b)
and screw them tight.
10.4.4 Check the sight glass (6a) and scale (Fig.
6, 11)
• There is a scale on the guide rail at the front of the
saw table (4).
To set the parallel stop (6) to a specific dimension, pro-
ceed as follows:
1. Release the parallel stop clamp (19).
2. Move the parallel stop (6) until the desired dimen-
sion is visible on the scale of the guide rail in the
sight glass (6a).
3. Push the parallel stop clamp (19) completely down
to fix it.
4. Make a test cut and measure the sawn-off workpiece.
5. If the measurement does not match the scale (6a),
proceed as follows.
6. Release the parallel stop clamp (19).
7. Loosen the locking nuts (A) behind the guide rail on
the saw table (4).
8. Hold the parallel stop (6) firmly and move the guide
rail until the sight glass (6a) on the scale shows the di-
mension of the workpiece that has just been sawn off.
9. Then retighten the locking nuts (A).
