Before Starting The Equipment; Attachment And Operation - Scheppach HM120L Original Bedienungsanleitung

The specified vibration value was established in ac-
cordance with a standardized testing method. It may
change according to how the electric equipment is
used and may exceed the specified value in excep-
tional circumstances;
The specified vibration value can be used to com-
pare the equipment with other electric power tools.
The specified vibration value can be used for initial
assessment of a harmful effect.
Attention!
The indicated weighted effective value of accelera-
tion can differ during operation from the indicated
value, dependent on the manner in which the device
is used. Dependent upon the actual conditions of
use (periodic duty) it may be necessary to establish
safety precautions for the protection of the operator.
Residual risks
The machine has been built according to the
state of the art and the recognised technical
safety requirements.
However, individual residual risks can arise dur-
ing operation.
• Health hazard due to electrical power, with the use
of improper electrical connection cables.
• Furthermore, despite all precautions having been
met, some non-obvious residual risks may still re-
main.
• Residual risks can be minimised if the „safety in-
structions" and the „Proper use" are observed
along with the whole of the operating instructions.
• Do not load the machine unnecessarily: excessive
pressure when sawing will quickly damage the saw
blade, which results in reduced output of the ma-
chine in the processing and in cut precision.
• When cutting plastic material, please always use
clamps: the parts which should be cut must always
be fixed between the clamps.
• Avoid accidental starting of the machine: the op-
erating button may not be pressed when inserting
the plug in an outlet.
• Use the tool that is recommended in this manual.
In doing so, your mitre saw provides optimal per-
formance.
• Hands may never enter the processing zone when
the machine is in operation. Release the handle
button and switch off the machine prior to any op-
erations.

7. Before starting the equipment

• The equipment must be set up where it can stand
securely, i.e. it should be bolted to a workbench, a
universal base frame or similar.
• All covers and safety devices have to be properly
fitted before the equipment is switched on.
• It must be possible for the blade to run freely.

• When working with wood that has been processed
before, watch out for foreign bodies such as nails
or screws, etc.
• Before you press the ON/OFF switch check that
the saw blade is fitted correctly. Moving parts must
run smoothly.
• Before you connect the equipment to the power
supply make sure the data on the rating plate are
identical to the mains data.

8. Attachment and operation

8.1 Attaching the saw (Fig. 1, 2/6a-c)
• To adjust the turntable (16) turn the locking handle
(13) counterclockwise to release the lock.
• Slide the locking position lever (12) upwards. To do
this, take your index finger.
• Now adjust the turntable (16) and pointer (14) by
useing the required angle of the scale (15). Fix it by
turning the locking handle (13) clockwise.
• Pressing the machine head (5) lightly downwards
and removing the locking bolt (24) from the motor
bracket at the same time disengages the saw from
the lowest position.
• Swing the machine head (5) up until the release
lever (3) latches into place.
• It is possible to secure the clamping device (8) to
the left or right on the stationary saw bench (17).
• Attach the workpiece supports (9) to the fixed
saw table (17) as shown in Figure 6a,b,c and push
all the way through. Secure the shafts with the
screws to prevent them from slipping out acciden-
tally. Then fasten in the desired position with the
screw (10).
• Install anti-tilt (39) on the fixed saw table (17) and
push it completely. (See Fig. 6c) Secure the shaft
with a screw (39a) against loosening.
• The machine head (5) can be tilt left or right to
max. 45 by opening the locking handle (22).

8.2 Precision adjustment of the stop for crosscut
90° (Fig. 1, 2, 5, 7, 8)
• No stop angle (a) included.
• Lower the machine head (5) and secure using the
locking bolt (24).
• Loosen the locking lever (22).
• Position the angle stop (a) between the saw blade
(7) and the rotary table (16).
• Flip stop plate 90 (40) at top
0
• Slacken the counternut (Fig. 8 Pos. d). Adjust the
adjusting screw (30) until the angle between the
saw blade (7) and rotary table (16) is 90°.
• Retighten the counternut (d) to secure this setting.
• Subsequently check the position of the angle indi-
cator. If necessary loosen the pointer (20) using a
Philips screwdriver, set to position 0° on the angle
scale (19) and re-tighten the retaining screw.
