4.3 Switching the machine on and off
Keep the machine steady during switching and
during use by holding the handle (1.10) and the additional
handle (1.11) with both hands.
To switch on, first push the cut-in and release block (9.1)
forwards, and then press the „On“-“Off“ switch (9.2). You can
then press the machines down for sawing, and release the
cut-in and release block. To switch off, release the „On“-“Off“
switch.
After the machine has been switched off, the
saw blade will still rotate for a time. Take care that parts of
your body do not come into contact with the saw blade while
it is still rotating!
As soon as you remove the machine from the workpiece once
sawing has been completed, the machine automatically returns
to its basic position and the saw blade is again completely
covered by the protective covering.
4.4 Sawing
The machine must reach full speed before cutting
begins and should only be switched off once cutting has
finished.
Only operate the saw away from you (pushing
the circular saw forwards) and never towards you (pulling
the circular saw backwards). If you saw towards you, there is
the danger that the circular saw might be accelerated out of
the cutting groove (recoil) and cause serious injury.
The cutting line for the saw blade can be observed via a cutting
edge (10.3) at the front of the saw table. The cutting edge
lying behind (10.2) is used when cutting at 45° without the
guide rail.
The most advanced cutting point is visible in the viewing
window (10.1).
Sawing sections:
- Place the front part of the saw bench on the workpiece.
- Switch the machine on, and press the saw down to the set
cutting depth.
- Push the machine in the direction of cut. Take care that the
saw bench remains firmly on the workpiece.
- Switch the machine off when cutting is completed.
Plunge cuts:
In conjunction with the guide system (see Section 6.2), plunge
cuts can be made with the AT 65 E. The riving knife must be
removed for plunge cuts.
- Set the machine to the maximum cutting depth.
- With max. cutting depth, the marking (11.3) on the protective
cover shows the furthest point to which a saw blade with a
diameter of 190 mm will saw. Set the hand-operated circular
saw on the guide rail, and align this by means of this marking.
- Set the guide limit (11.2, Order no. 485 827) directly behind
the saw bench on the guide rail, and tighten the clamping
lever / screw (11.1). When the machine plunges, the circular
saw must securely abut the guide limit, otherwise there is
the danger of a recoil!
- Switch the machine on, and plunge the saw.
- Push the machine in the direction of sawing.
- Switch the machine off once cutting is completed.
