8.3 Operating working lamp
• Turn off the machine as described under 8.2
• Now the work lamp (30) can turn ON or OFF by useing
the switch (31).
8.4 Speed regulator (Fig. 2/Item 15)
The speed regulator (15) allows you to set the blade speed
appropriate to the material to be cut. We recommend high
speeds for soft material and low speeds for hard mate-
rial. Turning the speed regulator (15) to the right increases
rotational speed.
8.5 Inside cutting
One of the features of this fretsaw is that it can make cuts
inside a panel without damaging the outside or edges.
To cut inside a panel:
• Remove the saw blade as described in section 7.3.2.
• Drill a hole in the panel in question.
• Lay the panel with the hole over the access hole in the saw
table.
• Insert the saw blade through the hole in the panel and set
the blade tension.
• When you have finished cutting, remove the saw blade
from the blade holders (as described in section 7.3.2) and
lift the panel off the table.
8.6 Miter cutting
To carry out miter cuts adjust the distance of the blade guard
for worktable accordingly. Swivel the saw table by loosening
the locking lever (12) and tilting the table to the desired posi-
tion (Fig. 12). Tighten the locking lever.
Important.
Be especially careful when making miter cuts. The angle of
the saw table makes it easier for the workpiece to slip. Risk
of injury.
9. Electrical connection
The electrical motor installed is connected and ready for
operation. The connection complies with the applicable
VDE and DIN provisions.
The customer's mains connection as well as the extension
cable used must also comply with these regulations.
Damaged electrical connection cable
The insulation on electrical connection cables is often dam-
aged.
This may have the following causes:
• Passage points, where connection cables are passed
through windows or doors.
• Kinks where the connection cable has been improperly
fastened or routed.
• Places where the connection cables have been cut due to
being driven over.
• Insulation damage due to being ripped out of the wall
outlet.
• Cracks due to the insulation ageing.
Such damaged electrical connection cables must not be used
and are life-threatening due to the insulation damage. Check
the electrical connection cables for damage regularly. Make
sure that the connection cable does not hang on the power
network during the inspection. Electrical connection cables
must comply with the applicable VDE and DIN provisions.
Only use connection cables with the marking H 05 VV-F,
3x1.0 mm
.

The printing of the type designation on the connection cable
is mandatory.
AC motor
• The mains voltage must be 220-240 V ~
• Extension cables up to 25 m long must have a cross-
section of 1.5 mm

10. Cleaning, maintenance, stor-
age and ordering of spare
parts
Important.
Always pull out the power plug before starting any cleaning
work.
10.1 Cleaning
• Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor housing
free of dirt and dust as far as possible.
• We recommend that you clean the equipment immediately
after you use it.
• Wipe the equipment with a clean cloth or blow it down
with compressed air at low pressure.
• Clean the equipment regularly with a damp cloth and
some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents or solvents;
these may be aggressive to the plastic parts in the equip-
ment. Ensure that no water can get into the interior of the
equipment.
10.2 Servicing
There are no parts inside the equipment which require ad-
ditional maintenance.
10.2.1 Bearing(s) (Fig. 1/Item 8)
Periodically lubricate the bearings (8) of the guide rollers
with high-grade machine grease, at the latest however after
25 to 30 hours of operation.
10.2.2 Carbon brushes
In case of excessive sparking, have the carbon brushes
checked only by a qualified electrician. Important: The
carbon brushes should not be replaced by anyone but a
qualified electrician.
