Before Starting The Equipment; Attachment And Operation - Kity MS255A Originalbetriebsanleitung

• 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. Use the holes in
the frame of the machine.
• 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
dentical to the mains data.

8. Attachment and operation

8.1 Attaching the saw (Fig. 1-6)
• To adjust the rotary table (16), push the locking
lever (13) downwards and pull the lower indexed
position lever (12) upwards with your index finger.
• Rotate the rotary table (16) and pointer (14) to the
desired angle on the scale (15) and lock in place
by folding up the locking lever (13).
• 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 retain-
ing springs to prevent them from slipping out ac-
cidentally. The fasten in the desired position with
the screw (10).
• It is possible to tilt the machine head (5) a max. 45°
to the left by loosening the set screw (22).
8.2 Precision adjustment of the stop for crosscut
90° (Fig. 3,5,18)
No stop angle included.
• Lower the machine head (5) and secure using the
locking bolt (24).
• Loosen the set screw (22).
• Position the angle stop (a) between the saw blade
(7) and the rotary table (16).
• Slacken the counternut (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.
8.3 Precision adjustment of the stop for mitre cut
45° (Fig. 1,3,5,19)
No stop angle included.
• Lower the machine head (5) and secure using the
locking bolt (24).
• Fix the rotary table (16) in the 0° position.
• Loosen the set screw (22) and use the handle (1)
to angle the machine head (5) 45° to the left.
• 45° - position angle stop (b) between the saw blade
(7) and rotary table (16).
• Slacken the counternut (c). Adjust the adjusting
screw (31) until the angle between the saw blade
(7) and rotary table (16) is precisely 45°.
• Retighten the counternut (d) to secure this setting.
8.4 Cross cut 90° and turntable 0° (Fig. 1, 2, 6, 7)
In the case of cutting widths up to approx. 100 mm it
is possible to fix the traction function of the saw with
the set screw (23) in the rear position. In this position
the machine can be operated in cross cutting mode.
If the cutting width is over 100 mm then it is neces-
sary to ensure that the set screw (23) is loose and
the machine head (5) can move.
Attention! For 90° mitre cuts, the moveable stop rail
(28) must be fixed in the inner position.
• Open the set screw (29) on the moveable stop rail
(28) and push the moveable stop rail (28) inwards.
• The moveable stop rail (28) must be locked in a
position far enough from the inner position that the
distance between the stop rail (28) and the saw
blade (7) is no more than 5 mm.
• Before making the cut, check that no collision
could occur between the stop rail (28) and the saw
blade (7).
