User manual FESTOOL _PSBC 400 EB

[. . . ] ­ Festool electric power tools must only be installed on work tables provided by If the tool is installed in another, or self-made, work table, it can become unstable and result in serious accidents. The tool can become entangled and lead to a loss of control of the power tool. Even after disconnection from the mains, there is still a high capacitor voltage inside the charger. Make sure that metal objects (such as metal chips) do not collect in the battery pack retaining slots or enter the machine through the air vent slits (danger of short circuit). [. . . ] If the saw blade is not ejected: run jigsaw 3 - 10 seconds at a high speed. 2 Using the chip guard The chip guard [4-1] prevents chips flying away and improves the efficiency of the chip extraction system. 3 Inserting splinterguard The splinterguard makes cuts with splinter-free cutting edges possible, even on the exit side of the saw blade. X With the machine switched off, push the splinterguard [5-1] onto the guide up to the saw blade [5-2], X switch on the jigsaw, Risk of injury, electric shock X Always disconnect the battery pack before any type of work on the machine!With the machine running (Speed range 5), push the splinterguard in on a flat plane until it is flush with the front edge of the saw table. L To guarantee reliable operation of the splinterguard, it must seal tightly on both sides of the saw blade. For splinter-free cuts, therefore, a new splinterguard should also be used after every saw blade change. Instead of the saw table, the angle table WTPS 400 or adaptation table ADT-PS 400 can be installed at the support. Never saw without the saw table, or one of the other tables offered in the Festool accessories program. 6 Adjusting the pendulum stroke In order to process different materials with an optimum feed movement the pendulum jigsaws have an adjustable pendulum stroke. Select the desired setting with the pendulum stroke switch [1-11]: setting 0 = pendulum stroke off setting 3 = maximum pendulum stroke Recommended settings of the pendulum stroke Hard and soft wood, chip board, wood 1 - 3 fibre board Wood core plywood, plywood, plastics 1 - 2 Ceramic Aluminium, NF metals Steel 0 0-2 0-1 Always work with a dust extractor. X Always read applicable national regulations before extracting hazardous dust. the extraction adapter [6-3] allows jigsaws to be connected to a dust extractor (hose diameter 27 mm). X Insert the extraction adapter into the rear opening of the saw table so that the hook [6-2] engages in the [6-1] recess. L Due to the low power consumption of the machine (low energy consumption), dust extractors with an automatic switch-on function will only start up when the actual cut is made. 7 Stroke speed control The number of strokes can be adjusted steplessly with the adjusting wheel [1-5] between 1500 and 3800 rpm (PSBC 400 EB: 1000 3800 rpm). This enables you to optimise the cutting speed to suit the respective material. In position A, the automatic load detection is activated: The stroke speed is reduced in idling and is controlled to the highest value when the blade enters the workpiece. Recommended stroke speed (position of the adjusting wheel) Hard and soft wood, plywood board, plywood, chip board Hardboard Plastic A 4-A 3-A Plasterboard) Damage to machine through dust penetration, risk of injury X Do not work overhead!When working on small or thin workpieces, always use a stable base, or the CMS module (accessory). When working, hold the electric power tool by the handle and guide it along the desired cutting line. For precise cuts and smooth running, use two hands to guide the electric power tool.
