Bench Saw CTS•81, L, XL
Operating Manual 70 9998 0329 / UK 003
• Push the red button (fig. 3.7) to stop the saw.
• While the saw is operating, the buttons are co-
vered by the flap (fig. 3.6). This allows the ope-
rator to quickly stop the saw by pushing the
emergency stop button in the event that a dan-
ger or fault condition occurs. To unlock the red
emergency stop button, push the button up-
wards until the lid springs open.
3.4 The wet-pit- (water-) pump
The electrical wet-pit- (water-) pump, which con-
veys the cooling water through hoses to the saw
blade, can be put into the bucket (fig. 3.8) or into
the water trough.

below the frame
If you want the mud produced during the cutting
operation to be collected in the water trough in-
stead of the bucket, you may use the overflow
pipe that comes with the machine.
When putting the pump into the water trough, be
sure to plug the drain hole (fig. 3.9).

The case of the wet-pit pump is sealed hermeti-
cally. It will not be possible to perform any re-
pairs on the components of the pump. The pump
is provided with a screen which serves to filter
out coarse dirt particles from the water. For in-
structions on how to clean the pump, please refer
to sect. 5.4.
Attention:
Never allow the wet-pit pump to run dry!
The electrical wet-pit pump must never run dry,
as this would cause the overheating and destruc-
tion of the pump. Make sure that the pump will al-
ways be covered with water. Refill the bucket or
water trough in due time to ensure that the pump
will not run dry.
Attention: Prevent the cooling system
from freezing!
To prevent the wet-pit pump and cooling system
from freezing, drain the water after each use and
- in case of hard frost - even before longer
breaks.
3.5 The blade drive motor
The windings of the blade drive motor are provi-
ded with temperature sensors which turn off the
motor in case of overload or overheating conditi-
ons. After the blade drive motor has been allowed
to cool for a short period of time, the Bench Saw
can be restarted.
The repeated triggering of the thermal protection
may be due to the following reasons:
• Problem: Cutting pressure too high.
Remedy: Reduce the cutting pressure.
• Problem: Wrong saw blade type.
Remedy: Use the correct saw blade that is sui-
table for the material to be cut.
