Variable Speed; Installing The Blade - Flex SKD 2902 VV Bedienungsanleitung

VARIABLE SPEED

The saw is equipped with a variable speed control (0 to 2600 SPM). As the switch trigger is
squeezed, the speed of the saw blade increases.
The lower speeds are recommended for most metal cutting, while the higher speeds are
recommended for wood. A few practice cuts at various speeds (on scrap material), will aid you
in choosing the best speed for obtaining the desired results on your application.
HOW TO HOLD SAW with ROTATING HANDLE
Hold saw as shown in Fig. 2A or 2B. The gear housing, intermediate plate, blade and
pivoting guide shoe may be made live if the blade cuts into live wiring within a wall.
The handle can be rotated 90° to the right or 90° and 180° to the left. To rotate handle,
depress locking lever (A) Fig. 3 and rotate handle to the desired position. After adjusting
make sure handle is locked in position before using the saw. NOTE: The handle will NOT
rotate 360°
WARNING: TO PREVENT ACCIDENTAL ELECTRICAL SHOCK THE SAW MUST BE HELD
AS SHOWN IN FIG. 2A OR 2B, AND MUST HAVE THE RUBBER FRONT HOUSING COVER
PROPERLY INSTALLED AND NOT DAMAGED.
WARNING: DO NOT USE THE TOOL UNLESS THE ROTATING HANDLE IS LOCKED IN
POSITION. IF THE HANDLE WILL NOT LOCK THE TOOL MUST BE RETURNED FOR
REPAIR.
SELECTING THE BLADE
For best performance, longer blade life, and smoother cut, select the proper blade for the job.
When cutting metal always select a blade which will allow at least three teeth to be engaged in
the thickness of material.

INSTALLING THE BLADE

Model SKD 2902 VV with Quik-Change ™ Blade Clamp
1. The reciprocating shaft must be fully extended to permit access to the Quik-Change ™ blade
release collar (A) Fig. 4. If necessary, gently squeeze the trigger switch to move the
reciprocating shaft to its outermost position (as shown in Fig. 4).
WARNING: DISCONNECT TOOL FROM POWER SOURCE.
2. Pivot the guide shoe (B) Fig. 4, forward to improve access to the blade clamp.
3. To open the blade clamp: rotate and hold the blade release collar (A) Fig. 5,
counterclockwise (as viewed from the front of the saw).
4. Insert the blade into the clamp until it bottoms. Allow the release collar to rotate clockwise
to lock the blade in place (Fig. 6).
5. To remove blade: repeat steps 1 thru 3, and pull blade from blade clamp (while the release
collar is being held in the open position).
WARNING: NEVER TOUCH BLADE IMMEDIATELY AFTER USE, AS IT MAY BE
EXTREMELY HOT.
NOTES: If the blade clamp collar resists rotation to remove a blade, work the blade up
and down while rotating the clamp (in a counterclockwise direction).
If the blade breaks leaving nothing to grasp (to pull it from the clamp), it may be
necessary to use another blade as a tool to aid in removing the broken piece (see Fig.
7). While holding the release collar in the open position, use the tip of another blade to
"hook" the broken piece and pull it from the clamp. (A thin, fine-toothed, metal-cutting
blade works best.)
