1.1 Values for extraction connection
Volume flow for connection Ø 35 mm: 70 m3
Vacuum pressure present
for an air speed of 20 m/s: 1666 Pa.
The dust emissions measured according to the principles
for testing dust emission (workplace-related dust
concentration) from woodworking machines by the Trade
Association for Wood lie clearly below the applicable limit
value o 2,0 mg/m3.
1.2 Noise emission
Measurement conditions:
- prEN 31202 for workplace-related emission values
with the following additions established by TC 142 in
order to obtain an accuracy class of better than 3 dB:
- The ambient correction factor K2A or K3A is < 4 dB.
- The difference between external noise level and the
noise sound pressure level is < 6 dB for each
measurement point.
- K3A is calculated according to appendix A, prEN 31204.
- A square envelope surface with nine measurement
points at a distance of 1 m from the reference surface
was used.
Workpiece: spruce
- Dimensions 150 / 100 / 20 mm (planed all round).
Tool: Fretsaw blade
- Dimensions t = 1.5 mm, b = 1 mm.
- The noise level emitted amounted to:
Sound pressure level at workplace [dB (A)]
Idling: 64.1
Cutting: 74.5
A measurement uncertainty supplement of K = 4 dB (A)
applies to the said emission values.
The values given are emission values and therefore do not
necessarily equate to safe workplace values. Although
there is a correlation between emission and immission
levels, it cannot be reliably deduced whether or not
additional precautionary measures are required. Factors
which can influence the immission level present at the
workplace at any time include the duration of effect, the
nature of the workplace, other noise sources etc., e.g. the
number of machines and other adjacent processes. The
reliable immission level may also vary from country to
country. This information should however enable the user
to make a closer assessment of the risk and danger.

12.0 Adjusting the stroke length
The machine is set by the factory to a long stroke length
which is normally best for most fretsaw work.
For working in extremely thin, light material such as
wood veneer or thin sheets, shortening the stroke may
improve saw control and smoothness. There is less risk
of breaking the thin fretsaw blade.
12.1 Decommission the machine
⇒ 8.4 Decommissioning machine.
12.2 Unscrew protective cover
⇒ Fig. 12-1
• Using the Allen key, unscrew the bolt (1) and remove
the protective plate.
12.3 Lock the cam
⇒ Fig. 12-2

13.0 Extraction connection
Certain wood types such as chipboards etc.
produce harmful dust emissions during machining.
For this reason the machine must be connected to
a dust extractor. For long and frequent use of the
machine, operating measures must ensure that the
extractor is automatically switched on when the
machine is switched on.
13.1 Connection
⇒ Fig. 13-1
The machine is designed for a standard dust extractor
(vacuum cleaner).
Push the connector of the extractor system into
opening (1) of the connection piece so that it locks.
13.2 Adjust the upper extraction
⇒ Fig. 13-2
• Adjust the upper extraction hose (1) so that it lies on
the workpiece around 5 mm away from the saw blade.
If however you want to work without the extractor, the
cut line can be blown clear by pulling the hose (4) off
the connection piece (5) and inserting it in the pump
base (3).
When the dust extractor is not connected, the
machine may only be used for open air work. In
closed rooms the dust extractor must be connected
(see 13.0 Extraction connection).
14.0 Maintenance / Cleaning
The machine is low maintenance.
Only the upper and lower arm bearings need to be oiled
regularly (approx. every 10 operating hours) with a fine
non-resinous oil (e.g. sewing machine oil).
14.1 Maintenance – oil arm bearings
⇒ Fig. 14-1
• Remove any dust deposits at the lubrication points.
• Using a light oil, oil both arm bearings (1). Apply 3 to
4 drops of oil at the points marked with arrows
(between the swing arm and washer).
The clamping spindle (2) must not be oiled or
greased.

- the terminal box
• If damage is found in particular to the electrical
equipment, decommission the machine
immediately and arrange for professional repair
with original spare parts.
14.3 Cleaning
- Clean the machine according to the level of dirt.
- No deposits of dust or chippings should form on or in
the machine.
14.3.1 Decommission machine
⇒ 8.4 Decommissioning the machine

• Clean the machine by extracting the dust with a
vacuum cleaner.
• Remove the side protective cover from time to time
and remove any dust below it.
• Remove sticky deposits with a brush or similar.
• Do not use any
- flammable
- aggressive or
- scouring cleaning agents
• Prevent the penetration of fluid / liquid into the
machine and in particular the electrical parts.
• If however moisture or fluid enters the machine,
do not connect the machine to the power supply.
• In this case contact the dealer or manufacturer.
15.0 Repair / Spare parts
These operating instructions do not contain any repair
instructions. Parts are repaired and / or replaced at
your own risk.
• The following notes must be observed.
15.1 Repair
• Do not repair any (faulty) electrical machine parts.
• These parts must be replaced by original spare
parts from the manufacturer.
• nly the manufacturer or authorised dealer /
specialist with corresponding training (e.g.
electricians) may replace electrical machine parts.
• If incorrect D.I.Y. work is performed on electrical
machine parts, there is a risk of life-threatening
current surges and/or burns.

16.0 Tips for use
16.1 Examples of correct choice of saw blade
⇒ Table on side protection cover of machine
Important:
Blunt saw blades must be replaced. This applies in
particular when cutting iron. Full cutting power and
accuracy is achieved only if the recommended quality of
saw blade is used.
Useful note:
If for economy reasons you wish to continue to use a
blunt saw blade, for example for cutting iron, attach a
smooth support approx. 20 mm thick to the saw table
plate of the machine using twin-sided adhesive tape,
and continue to cut on this. By raising the saw table in
this way you can progressively use up more of the saw
blade.
Working with plastics:
To prevent the material melting when cutting, mask off
the cutting line with plastic adhesive tape.
16.2 Feed pressure
The feed pressure to be exerted on the workpiece must
always be directed obliquely from top to bottom, else
the workpiece may jump. Some workpieces require a
strong feed pressure.
16.3 Stop
In general stops are not used when sawing with
fretsaw blades. Fretsaw blades will move off the
cutting line if the workpiece is force-guided.
Accurate sawing requires:
- a sharp saw blade
- a thin, accurate cutting line
- correctly applied, bright light
16.4 Straight cutting
• Always hold the workpiece at an angle of 1 to 5º (the
angle depends on material, saw blade type and blade
tension).
16.5 Notes on sawing metal
• First deburr metal workpieces to be cut on all sides
and flatten these off carefully so they sit flat.
• Either glue thin or small workpieces (e.g. thin sheets)
onto a 5 mm thick plywood block (using contact
adhesive or twin-sided adhesive film) or place these
between two pieces of plywood and secure against
slipping with pins.
• Then cut the workpiece out together with the plywood
(do not choose sheets that are too thick).
• Use
- fretsaw blade no. 1 to 5 for
- soft NF metals, e.g.
- aluminium (sheet)
- soft copper (sheet)
- soft brass (sheet)
If necessary you can also use metal saw blades
numbers 5 to 9.
• Before sawing, coat the cut line with lubricating oil
(universal oil).
• Use
- metal saw blades nos. 1, 5, 9 or 12 for
- hard NF metals e.g. for
- hard aluminium (sheet)
- hard copper (sheet)
- hard brass (sheet)
- iron (sheet).
• Before sawing, coat the cut line with cutting oil or
paste.
• Despite using saw blades of top quality, depending on
hardness iron will cause greater blade wear.
17.0 Speed selection
(only on motors with electronic speed control)
• In general, low speeds are better if accuracy,
guidance of the saw blade or durability of the saw
blade are important, whereas higher speeds are
generally better for higher working output and reduced
cutting times.
•Thin or fragile materials are best handled at low speeds.
• Extra thick materials or plastics are best handled at
medium or low speeds.
