Running In The Saw Band; Clamping The Material Correctly In The Vice - Flex SBG 3908 Bedienungsanleitung

Running in the saw band

Note
To ensure an optimum cutting result, each
new saw band must be run in. To do this:
– Clamp 40–60 mm Ø round steel in the
vice.
– Make three cuts in the solid material.
Start by applying very little pressure
on the handle for the first cut, increase
the pressure slightly for the subsequent
cuts. For the last cut the cutting time
should not be less than 4 minutes!
A correctly run-in saw band produces
a higher cutting quality and has a longer
service life.
Sawing
Caution!
Before use, always check the machine and
saw band for damage.
Note!
Excessive feed will reduce the capacity of
the machine, impair the cutting quality and
reduce the service life of the saw band.
n Clamp the workpiece firmly in the
vice (7).
n Adjust the saw band guide (4) according
to the workpiece dimensions.
n Switch on the machine.
Caution!
Risk of injury! Always keep your left hand
on the outside of the cutting area.
n Take hold of the handle (1) with your
right hand and press the switch.
Slowly feed the saw frame (2) along
the material.
n After making the first cut, increase the
pressure. Apply uniform feed through
the material.
n After cutting the material, release the
switch and move the handle to its
original position.

If profiles are made of a very thin material,
insert another piece into the profile
which matches the shape of the profile,
thereby reducing the risk of distortion.
