Electrical Connection - Parkside PKS 1500 A2 Bedienungs- Und Sicherheitshinweise

Attention! The machine executes an upward stroke automati-
cally due to the return spring, i.e. do not release the handle (2)
after completing the cut; instead allow the machine head to
move upwards slowly whilst applying light counter pressure.
Mitre cut 0°- 45° (Fig. 1, 1.3, 3)
The crosscut saw can be used to make mitre cuts of 0° -
45° in relation to the work face.
Important! To make miter cuts (inclined saw head), the
adjustable stop rail (27a) must be fixed at the outer position.
• Open the set screw (27b) for the adjustable stop rail
(27a) with an Allen key and push the adjustable stop rail
outwards.
• The adjustable stop rail (27a) must be fixed far enough in
front of the innermost position that the distance between
the stop rail (27a) and the saw blade (5) amounts to a
maximum of 8 mm.
• Before making a cut, check that the stop rail (27a) and
the saw blade (5) cannot collide.
• Secure the locking lever (27b) again.
• Move the machine head to the top position.
• Fix the rotary table (9) in the 0° position.
• Loosen the set screw (23) and use the handle (2) to angle
the machine head to the left, until the pointer (25) indi-
cates the desired angle measurement on the scale (24).
• Re-tighten the fixing screw (23).
• Cut as described in section "Cross-cutting".
Mitre cut 0°- 45° and turntable 0°- 45°
The crosscut saw can be used to make mitre cuts to the left
of 0°- 45° in relation to the work face and, at the same
time, 0° - 45° to the left or 0° - 45° to the right in relation
to the stop rail (double mitre cut).
Important! To make miter cuts (inclined saw head), the
adjustable stop rail (27a) must be fixed at the outer position.
• Open the set screw (27b) for the adjustable stop rail
(27a) with an Allen key and push the adjustable stop rail
outwards.
• The adjustable stop rail (27a) must be fixed far enough in
front of the innermost position that the distance between
the stop rail (27a) and the saw blade (5) amounts to a
maximum of 8 mm.
• Before making a cut, check that the stop rail (27a) and
the saw blade (5) cannot collide.
• Secure the locking lever (27b) again.
• Move the machine head to its upper position.
• Release the rotary table (9) by loosening the set screw (23).
• Using the handle (2), set the rotary table (9) to the desired angle.
• Retighten the set screw (23) in order to secure the rotary table.
• Undo the locking screw (23) and use the handle (2) to
tilt the machine head to the left until it coincides with the
required angle value.
• Retighten the fixing screw (23).
• Cut as described in section "Cross-cutting".
•
Saw blade replacement (Fig. 5)
• Pull out the mains plug.
• Place the saw unit in „cross-cutting" position
• Unlock the moving saw blade guard (6) by pressing the
locking lever (3 - Fig. 1); in the process, raise the saw
blade guard so that the saw blade is free.
8 GB
• Actuate the spindle lock (22 - Fig. 3).
• Loosen the saw blade fastening screw (28) - (Atten-
tion: left-handed thread).
• Remove the screw (28) and saw blade flange (29).
• Carefully remove the saw blade (risk of injury from the
saw blade teeth).
• Place a new saw blade on the inner saw blade flange. In the
process, observe the rotational direction of the saw blade.
• Fit the outer saw blade flange and firmly tighten the screw.
• Move the saw blade guard back to the correct position.
Replacing laser batteries (Fig. 6)
• Remove the laser battery cover (30). Remove the 2 batteries.
• Replace both batteries with the same or an equivalent
type. Make sure that they are inserted with the same po-
larity as the used batteries.
• Close the battery cover.
Switch ON / switch OFF the laser
To switch on: Move the ON/OFF (33) switch of the
laser (34) to the "1" position. A laser line is projected onto
the material you wish to process, providing an exact guide
for the cut.
To switch off: Move the ON/OFF switch of the laser
to the "0" position.
Adjusting the laser (Fig. 7)
If the laser (31) ceases to indicate the correct cutting line, you
can readjust the laser. To do so, open the screws (32) and set
the laser by moving sideways to that the laser beam strikes the
teeth of the saw blade (5).

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 connec-
tion as well as the extension cable used
must also comply with these regulations.
Important information
In the event of an overloading the motor will switch itself
off. After a cool-down period (time varies) the motor can
be switched back on again.
Damaged electrical connection cable
The insulation on electrical connection cables is often damaged.
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.
