Cross Stop And Sliding Table (Fig. 27); Operation; Switching On/Off (Fig. 10); Longitudinal Cuts (Fig.22) - Zipper Maschinen ZI-FKS315 Betriebsanleitung

The fence 7 must be used for longitudinal cuts in wooden work pieces. It should be mounted on
the right side of the blade 4. It must be pushed into the guide 17 outside. Adjust the required
distance and lock the fence with the lock screw.
 Setting the stop length
The stop rail can be moved on the work piece to prevent the work piece from becoming jammed.
Rule of thumb: The rear end of the stop comes up against an imaginary line that begins roughly
at the center of the saw blade and runs at an angle of 45° to the rear.
At first set the cutting width. Then loosen the nuts 21 and pull the stop rail forwards till it reaches
the imaginary line. Tighten the nuts again.

15.2.5 Cross stop and sliding table (Fig. 27)

Push the cross stop 7 into the groove a of the sliding table. Loosen the lock screw 12 and turn it
till the arrow points at the required angle.
Important: Don't pull the stop rail too far to the saw blade. The distance between the rail and
the saw blade 4 should be about 2cm.
Tighten the lock screw again.

Operation

15.3.1 Switching ON/OFF (Fig. 10)

For turning on the machine the cover must be opened and the green button must be pushed. This
one is on the switch panel 11. Let the engine get to its maximum speed before cutting.
Important: The cover must be flapped down again because it's used as emergency stop switch.
For turning off you have to push the red button.

15.3.2 Longitudinal cuts (Fig.22)

For longitudinal cuts the sliding table must be fixed with the lock 19 (Fig. 18). Press one edge of
the work piece against the longitudinal fence while the flat side lies on the saw blade. The blade
guard always has to lie on the work piece. Adjust the fence. Turn on the machine. Place your
hands (with fingers closed) flat on the work piece and pull it along the fence into the blade. Lead
on the side with your hands always only to the position of the front edge of the blade guard.
Always push the work piece through to the end of the splitter. The offcut piece remains on the
saw table 1 until the blade is back in its position of rest.
 Cutting narrow work pieces:
Always use a push block 3 when the cutting width is lower than 120mm.
Important: Always replace a damaged push block through a new one.
 Cutting extremely narrow work pieces (Fig. 23):
Use a push block when the cutting width is lower than 30mm. Use the longitudinal fence like
shown in Fig. 23.
 Making concealed nuts
Remove the saw blade guard (see 2.5.2). Adjust the cutting depth and the splitter new. Pull the
work piece into the blade. After cutting the blade guard must be fitted again.
 Making bevel cuts (Fig. 25):
Adjust the required angle. The cut follows like a normal cut.

15.3.3 Working with the sliding table

 Cross cuts (Fig. 26, 27):Pull the sliding table forward. Set the cross stop to the required
angle and fix it with the lock screw on the sliding table. Press the work piece against the
cross stop and move the sliding table slowly forwards. Turn off the machine and remove
the offcut when the saw blade is in its position of rest.
 Making edging cuts:Place the work piece on the sliding table and press it against the
edging plate c. Pull the sliding table forwards and make the cut.
