Control Elements; Operation - EINHELL BM 200 Bedienungsanleitung

Anleitung BM 200 SPK 1 14.03.2005
Fit the new tire (3), replace the blade (26) and
close the side cover (12).
7.10. Changing the table insert (Figure 16)
To prevent increased likelihood of injury the table
insert (17) should be changed whenever it is worn or
damaged.
Detach the table (15) (see 7.1).
Lift out the worn table insert (17).
Fit the replacement table insert by following the
above in reverse.
7.11. Extractor sockets
The bandsaw is equipped with extractor sockets (6)
for extracting sawdust and chips.

8. Control elements

8.1. On/Off switch (Figure 17)
To turn the machine on, press the green button
„1" (g).
To turn the machine off again, press the red
button „0" (h).
Your bandsaw has a switch with undervoltage
release. After a power failure you must re-
activate the switch.
8.2. Parallel stop (Figure 18)
Push the clip (21) on the parallel stop (24)
upwards.
Move the parallel stop (24) along the table (15),
from either the right or left of the blade (26), and
position as required.
Push the clip (21) down to fix the parallel stop
(24). If the clip (21) does not give enough hold,
turn it clockwise several times until the parallel
stop is securely fixed.
You must always ensure that the parallel stop
(24) is positioned parallel to the blade (26).
8.3. Angular cuts (Abb. 19)
To enable you to perform angular cuts parallel to the
blade (26), the table (15) can be tilted forwards
between 0° - 45°.
Undo the fixing handles (18).
Tilt the saw table (15) forwards until the required
angle value is set on the dial scale (16).

Re-tighten the fixing handles (18).
Important: When the table (15) is tilted, place
the parallel stop (24) to the right of the blade (26)
looking in the direction in which you are working,
on the side pointing downwards (provided the
workpiece is wide enough) in order to stop the
workpiece from slipping off.

9.0. Operation

Caution! After every new adjustment we recommend
you to make a trial cut in order to check the new
settings.
For all cutting operations it is important to
position the blade guide (11) as close as
possible to the workpiece (see 7.5).
Always guide the workpiece with both hands,
holding it flat on the table (15) in order to prevent
the blade (26) from jamming.
Feed the workpiece at a uniform speed that
enables the blade to cut through the material
without difficulty and without blocking.
Always use the parallel stop (24) on all cuts for
which they are intended.
Always aim at making a complete cut in one
pass rather than in a stop-and-go operation
requiring the workpiece to be withdrawn. If you
have to withdraw the workpiece, switch off the
bandsaw first and wait for the blade (26) to stop
before freeing the workpiece.
The workpiece must always be guided by the
longer side during cutting.
9.1. Longitudinal cuts (Figure 20)
Longitudinal cutting is when you use the saw to cut
along the grain of the wood.
Place the parallel stop (24) to the left of the blade
(25), as far as possible, for the width required.
Lower the blade guide (11) down to the
workpiece (see 7.5).
Switch on the saw.
Press the edge of the workpiece with your right
hand to hold it securely against the parallel stop
(24) and flat on the table (15).
Guide the workpiece along the parallel stop (24)
and through the blade (26) at a uniform speed.
Important: Long workpieces must be secured
against falling off at the end of the cut (e.g. with a
roller stand etc.)
