2.4 Safety equipment
Emergency stop button
The machine FKS 315-1500 E is equipped with an
EMERGENCY STOP button (A, Fig. 3).
Fig. 2: EMERGENCY STOP button and ON / OFF switch
In emergencies, press the EMERGENCY STOP button
and the machine will stop immediately. The power supply
is switched off or the drives are mechanically dis-
connected. After the emergency stop button has been
pressed, it must be unlocked by turning it in the direction
of the arrow so that it can be switched on again.
Motor protection switch
There is a thermal protection switch in the motor of the
Panel saw, which switches off the motor automatically in
case of thermal overload.
After eliminating the cause of the overload and waiting
for the engine to cool down completely, the engine can
be restarted.
Workpiece kickback protection
Fig. 3: Workpiece kickback protection
If necessary, the workpiece kickback guard can be
mounted on the sliding carriage to prevent the workpiece
from being knocked back.
3 Intended use
The Panel saw FKS 315-1500 E is used for sawing with
versatile adjustable angles of boards and strips. The
processing of solid wood, chipboard, panels and profiles
is possible. In compliance with the safety instructions,
the conditions of use for the saw blade used must be ob-
served. Firewood must not be processed. The machine
must be operated with a suitable extraction system. It is
suitable for private use, not for industrial use. Proper use
also includes compliance with all information in this ma-
nual. Any use beyond the intended use or otherwise is
considered misuse.
For structural and technical changes on the panel saw the
company St rmer Maschinen GmbH assumes no liability.
Claims of any kind due to damage due to improper use are
excluded.
WARNING!
Risk of misuse!
Misuse of the panel saw can lead to dangerous situa-
tions.

Operation of the Panel saw
7.3 Electrical connection
When making electrical connections, make sure that the
characteristics (voltage, mains frequency, protection)
match those on the rating plate and for the motor.
Requirements for the power grid:
- Overvoltage protection and undervoltage protec-
tion
- Voltage deviation from the nominal value: 0.9-1.1
- Frequency deviation from the nominal value: 0.99-
1.01
- Hedging: 16 A
Step 1: Check that the panel saw is switched off.
Step 2: Connect the machine to the mains and check the
direction of motor rotation. If the direction of rota-
tion is wrong, two phases must be exchanged.
8 Operation of the Panel saw
With the sliding table of the sliding table saw large-sized
workpieces can be cut, without the stresses that would
occur through sawing on a stationary table.
In addition, the saw can be used as a regular table saw
to cut smaller workpieces.
ANGER!
To ensure sufficient stability of the machine, it should
be screwed to the ground. There are 4 holes on the
machine housing for this purpose
ANGER!
anger of electrocution!
There is danger to life when in contact with live com-
ponents. Switched on electrical components can
cause uncontrolled movements and lead to serious
injuries.
ATTENTION!
All work on the electrical installation may only be car-
ried out by a qualified electrician.
ANGER!
The three phases must be connected in such a way
that the saw blade moves according to the cutting di-
rection shown on the housing.
ANGER!
anger of electrocution!
There is danger to life when in contact with live com-
ponents. Switched on electrical components can
cause uncontrolled movements and lead to serious
injuries.
- - Disconnect the power before starting adjustments
to the machine.
WARNING!
Risk of death!
There is danger to life for the operator and other per-
sons if they do not adhere to the following rules.
- The panel saw may only be operated by a trained
and experienced person.
- The operator may not work while under the influ-
ence of alcohol, drugs or medication.
- The operator must not work when he is tired or suf-
fering from concentration-impairing illnesses.
- The panel saw may only be operated by one person.
Other persons must keep away from the work area
during operation.
CAUTION!
Crushing!
Incorrect work on the machine can cause injury to the
upper limbs.
Wear ear protection!
Wear safety glasses!
Wear safety shoes!
Wear protective clothing!

- Work at the proper and consistent feed rate, never
stopping the workpiece during the cut.
- Only work with a sharp saw blade.
- Select suitable saw blade: At least 2 - 3 teeth
should always cut the workpiece at the same time
(A, Fig. 19).
8.1 Sawing with the sliding table

9.2 Maintenance and Repair
Maintenance and repair work may only be carried out by
qualified personnel.
If the panel saw does not work properly, contact a dealer
or our customer service. The contact details can be
found in chapter 1.2 Customer Service.
All protection and safety equipment must be reinstalled
immediately after completion of repair and maintenance
work.

possible, unscrew the two M6x12 screws and re-
move the saw blade guard.
Step 4: Remove the insert at the table.
Step 5: Insert the shaft pin into the hole on the inside of
the saw blade flange to lock the saw blade and
unscrew the saw blade nut clockwise with the
wrench.
NOTE!
The bearings are closed and pre-lubricated. They are
maintenance-free for the normal life of the machine.
The bearing surfaces should always be kept clean to
ensure proper operation of the saw.
Wear safety gloves!
ANGER!
The saw blade measures 315 x 30 x 3 mm (outer dia-
meter, inner diameter, thickness)
ANGER!
Each time you change the blade thickness, you must
fit an appropriately dimensioned cutting blade and a
suitable auxiliary saw blade.
