5.4 Splinter-free sawing

For splinter-free working you use:

a sharp saw blade

the anti-splintering device available as special
accessory

5.5 Positioning the base plate

Once it has been released, the base plate can be
moved to the front and rear.

Release the base plate as described under 4.4.

Move the base plate into the desired position.

Clamp the base plate as described under 4.4.

5.6 Adjusting the base plate

Possible base plate positions:

Standard position for right-angled cuts, saw
blade is completely enclosed (Fig. 5).

Base plate position is flush with the front edge of
the saw blade. This makes sawing close to the
edge possible (Fig. 6).

5.7 Reverse sawing
If a cut needs to be made in the vicinity of a corner,
this may mean that the base plate support is very
small and that angular application of the saw is
difficult. To increase the bearing face, fit the saw
blade the wrong way around and saw against the
normal direction of sawing. Please note that it is not
possible to use the pendulum stroke for this sawing
operation and that it must be switched off.

Service and maintenance

Danger
Pull the power plug during all
service work.
MAFELL machines are designed to be low in
maintenance.
The ball bearings used are greased for life. When the
machine has been in operation for a longer period of
time, we recommend to hand the machine in at an
authorised MAFELL customer service shop for
inspection.
Only use our special grease, order No. 049040 (1 kg
tin) for all greasing points.

6.1 Storage

If the machine is not used for a longer period of time,
it has to be carefully cleaned. Spray bright metal parts
with a rust inhibitor.
Elimination
Check power supply
Replace fuse
Take the machine to a MAFELL
customer service shop
Check mains back-up fuses
Reduce feed speed
