Stanley FATMAX SFMCS600 Bersetzt Von Den Originalanweisungen Seite 12

ENGLISH
● Slide the cutting action button (6) between the three
cutting positions: 0, 1 and 2.
● Position 0 is for straight cutting.
● Positions 1 and 2 are for orbital cutting.
● The aggressiveness of the cut increases as the lever
is adjusted from one to two, with two being the most
aggressive cut.
Sawing
● Always hold the tool with both hands.
● Let the blade run freely for a few seconds before starting
the cut.
● Apply only a gentle pressure to the tool while performing
the cut.
● If possible, work with the shoe plate (5) pressed against
the workpiece. This will improve tool control and
reduce tool vibration, as well as prevent the blade from
being damaged.
Hints for optimum use
● Use a high speed for wood, a medium speed for
aluminium and PVC and a low speed for metals other
than aluminium.
Sawing laminates
As the saw blade cuts on the upward stroke, splintering may
occur on the surface closest to the shoe plate.
● Use a fine‑tooth saw blade.
● Saw from the back surface of the workpiece.
● To minimise splintering, clamp a piece of scrap wood or
hardboard to both sides of the workpiece and saw through
this sandwich.
Sawing metal
Be aware that sawing metal takes much more time than
sawing wood.
● Use a saw blade suitable for sawing metal. Use a fine‑
tooth saw blade for ferrous metals and a coarser saw
blade for non-ferrous metals.
● When cutting thin sheet metal, clamp a piece of scrap
wood to the back surface of the workpiece and cut through
this sandwich.
● Spread a film of oil along the intended line of cut.

Cleaning
Warning! Blow dirt and dust out of the main housing
with dry air as often as dirt is seen collecting in and
around the air vents. Wear approved eye protection and
@
approved dust mask when performing this procedure.
Warning! Never use solvents or other harsh chemicals
for cleaning the non-metallic parts of the tool. These
chemicals may weaken the materials used in these
parts. Use a cloth dampened only with water and mild
soap. Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never
immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.
Reducing Dust Exposure
Before starting work, check the hazard class of the dust that
@
will be produced when working.
WARNING: Avoid touching or breathing dust as it can
be harmful to health. Dust created when using a power
tool and when conducting other construction activities
can contain chemicals, minerals, or particles known to
cause respiratory infections, allergic reactions, cancer,
birth defects, or other reproductive harm of the user
or bystanders.
● Such dust can be generated, for example, when working
on hardwoods such as beech or oak, lead-based paint,
concrete, masonry, or stones containing quartz.
● Material containing asbestos may be handled only
by specialists.
