Cut Indicator; Parallel Guide; Exhaustion; Replacing The Saw Blade - Protool CSP 132 E Originalbetriebsanleitung

7.4 Cut indicator
The cut produced by the CSP 132 E depends
on the bevel setting and can be observed at
the cut indicator.
7.5 Parallel Guide
Various parallel guides can be inserted into the
machine base plate [2-2] on the left [2-3] and
on the right [2-4].
Tighten the parallel guide using the winged
screws [2-1].
7.6 Exhaustion
CAUTION
Inhaled dust may damage the air pas-
sages.
► Tools should be permanently connected to
the dust exhausting plant.
► Wear respirator if you work with dust.
To exhaust dust, suction adapter [1-1] can
be mounted on the sawdust ejector through
which common exhaust hoses of exhausters
can be connected.
7.7 Replacing the Saw Blade
WARNING
Before exchanging the saw blade, pull
the mains plug from the power sup p ly
socket.
Wear protective gloves!
The sawing performance and the quality of the
cut depend essentially on the condition and
tooth form of the saw blade. Therefore, use
only sharp saw blades that are suitable for the
material to be worked.
Swing back the swinging guard with the lever
[3-5].
Install a suitable saw blade according to the
illustration and tighten. Take care that the
mounting flange [3-4] and the clamping flange
[3-2] are correctly positioned. The holes in the
saw blade [3-3] must fit onto the follow-up
pins on the mounting flange [3-4].
WARNING
Observe for installation: The cutting di-
rection of the teeth (arrow on the saw
blade) must match the direction of the
arrow on the guard.
22
Check the function of the swinging
guard.
Tighten the hexagon bolt [3-1] using the SW19
Allen key supplied, while holding the clamping
flange [3-2] with the single ring spanner which
is also supplied.
To remove the blade, follow the same sequence
in reverse.
8 Operating Instructions
►
Do not cut into nails, screws, etc.
► Do not work with materials containing as-
bestos.
► Do not use saw blades that have cracks or
that are damaged.
► Under no circumstances use abrasive
disks!
► Saw blades of highly alloyed, high-speed
steel (HSS-steel) must not be used.
► Feeding too fast significantly reduces the
performance of the machine and short ens
the life of the saw blade.
► Use only sharp saw blades in perfect con-
dition.
► Uncoated saw blades can be protected from
corrosion with a thin coat of acid free oil.
► Resin and glue on the saw blade cause poor
cutting results. Therefore, clean the saw
blade immediately after use.
8.1 Working different materials
Wood
The proper selection of the saw blade is de-
pendent on the type and quality of the wood
as well as whether the wood is to be sawed
along or across the grain. Beech and oak dust
is especially detrimental to health and there-
fore should be worked only with vacuum dust
extraction.
Plastic
When cutting plastic, especially PVC, long, spi-
ral shaped shavings are produced that can be
electrostatically charged.
This can cause the ejector to become clogged
and the swinging protective guard [1-8] to
stick. The use of a vacuum cleaner for dust
extraction is recommended.
Apply the machine running against the work-
piece and carefully start sawing. Then saw
steadily and without interruption so that the
saw teeth have less chance of sticking.
Non-ferrous Metals
Use only a suitable and sharp saw blade. This
ensures a clean cut and prevents jam ming of
the saw blade.
Apply the machine running to the workpiece,
carefully start sawing and then saw with slow
feeding and without interruption.
For profiles, always start the cut on the small
side; for U-profiles, never start the cuts on the
open side.
Support long profile, otherwise the saw blade
can become jammed when the profile tips over
and the machine can "kick back".
Material with Mineral Content (Light
building material)
► Only dry cutting is permitted.
► Use vacuum dust extraction. The vacu um
cleaner must be suitable for masonry dust.
8.2 Two-Man Operation
The machine has several handholds to allow it
to be used by one or two operators, depending
on the configuration.
Illustration 4a is for one-man operation.
Illustration 4b is for two-man operation.
9 Using Attachments
You can extend the use of your circular saw by
using the NS-CSP 250x50 planing attachment
and the RS-CSP 160x80 curve-cutting attach-
ment available from the Protool range.
WARNING
Risk of electric injury.
► Before any manipulation with the tool make
sure to unplug the mains socket outlet.
9.1 NS-CSP 250x50 Planing
Attachment
Using the planing attachment (item no. 624
337), you can mill grooves and rabbets to a
max. depth of 80 mm and a width of 50 mm
(see diagrams below).
max 80 mm
50 mm
80 mm
max 36 mm
Set the saw to minimum cutting depth.
Remove the saw blade [3-3] by following the
instructions in Section 7.7 (Replacing the saw
blade).
Unscrew the following components:
Plate [5-1] covering the blade guard
Guard [5-2] covering the pendulum mount
Dust exhaustion connection [5-3]
Riving knife [5-4]
Ensure the planing head [6-3] is clean and fit-
ted according to the illustration and screw it
tight. Ensure that the mounting flange [6-1]
and the clamping flange [6-2] are in the cor-
rect position. The holes in the planing head
[6-3] must fit onto the follow-up pins on the
mounting flange [6-1]. Insert the pin [6-4]
into the hole on the planing head to secure it.
Screw the cover guard [6-5] onto the pendu-
lum mount [6-6].
Screw the cover guard [6-7] onto the blade
guard [6-8].
Select the depth to be milled as described in
Section 7.2 (Cutting Depth Adjustment).
9.2 RS-CSP 160x80 Curve-Cutting
Attachment
Using the curve-cutting attachment (item no.
624 339), you can sink grooves, mill and cut
curves as illustrated below. For this purpose,
the curve-cutting attachment swivels by up to
45°.
