re place ment parts. You can find replacement parts at
your scheppach dealer.
• When ordering, include our item number and the type
and year of construction of the machine.
In these operating instructions we have marked the places
that have to do with your safety with this sign: m
m General safety instructions for power tools
• WARNING Read all warnings and instructions. Failure to
apply all warnings and instructions can lead to electrical shock, fire and/or serious injury.
• Keep all warnings and instructions handy for future consultation.
• The term “power tool” used in the warnings refers to power tools that are connected to a source of electrical
energy (with an electrical cable)
1) Workplace safety
a) Keep your working area clean and well lit. Cluttered or
dimly lit workspaces can lead to accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in areas where explosions
could take place, or in which flammable liquids, gases
or dust are present. Power tools can create sparks, which
can cause dust or fumes to ignite.
c) Keep children and bystanders away from the power
tool when it is being used. Distractions could cause you
to lose control over the equipment.
2) Electrical safety
a) The terminal plug of the tool must fit into the outlet.
The plug may not be modified in any way. Do not use an
adaptor plug together with grounded power tools. The
original plugs and the appropriate outlets reduce the risk
of an electrical shock.
b) Avoid contact with grounded surfaces, such as pipes,
radiators, stoves and refrigerators. There is an increased
risk of electrical shock, if your body is grounded.
c) Keep power tools away from rain or wet conditions.
Penetration of water into the power tool increases the
risk of electrical shock.
d) Do not use the cable for any purpose other than that
for which it was made. Do not use it to carry the tool,
hang it up, or to pull the plug out of the outlet. Keep
the cable away from heat, oil, sharp corners or parts of
the equipment that move. Damaged or entangled cords
increase the risk of electrical shock.
e) When operating the power tool outdoors, only use extension cords that are suitable for outdoor use. The use
of an appropriate extension cord reduces the risk of an
electrical shock.
f) If the power tool must be used in a damp environment,
use a residual current protective device. The use of such
a device reduces the risk of electrical shock.
3) Personal safety
a) Be attentive, watch what you are doing and use the
power tool sensibly. Do not use power tools when you are
tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medicines. One moment of inattention while using a power tool
can result in serious injury.
b) Wear personal protective equipment and always wear
protective glasses. Wearing personal protective equipment, such as a dust mask, slip-free safety shoes, protective headwear or ear protection, depending on the
type and use of a power tool reduces the risk of injury.
c) Avoid unintentional start-ups. Make sure that the power tool is shut off before it is connected to the power
supply, or is carried. If you have your finger on the switch
of the tool while carrying it, or have the tool turned on,
or connected to a power supply, this behaviour can lead
to accidents.
d) Remove the adjustment aides or the spanners before
turning on the power tool. A tool or wrench that is located
in a rotating part of the machine, can lead to injuries.
e) Avoid abnormal posture. Make sure that the operator
is standing firmly and can maintain balance. This allows
the operator to maintain control over the power tool in
unexpected situations.
f) Wear appropriate clothing. Do not wear loose clothing
or jewellery. Keep hair, clothing and gloves away from the
moving parts. Loose clothing, jewellery or long hair can
get caught in the moving parts.
g) If dust vacuums or catching systems can be installed
on the tool, make sure that these are correctly connected and assembled. The use of a dust exhaust unit can
reduce hazards caused by dust.
4) Use and treatment of the power tool
a) Do not overtax the tool. Use the appropriate tool for
the work that is to be done. With the correct power tool,
you can work better and more safely.
b) Do not use a power tool where the switch is defective.
A power tool that cannot be turned on and off is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the wall outlet before you
make adjustments to the tool, change parts or put the
tool away. This precaution prevents inadvertent startups of the tool.
d) Store power tools that are not in use out of reach of
children. Do not let anyone use the tool who does not
have experience with it, or who has not read these instructions. Power tools can be dangerous when they are
used by inexperienced people.
e) Take good care of your power tools. Make sure that
movable parts function properly and do not jam, see
that parts which influence the use of the machine are
not broken or damaged. Repair damaged parts before
operating the tool. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting edges sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges jam less often
and are easier to control.
g) Use power tools, accessories, and equipment according to these instructions. Taking into account the working conditions and the work being performed.
Page 5
The use of power tools other than those intended for the
Page 5
Instruction Manual for cs-55 (W874)
17/12/2014
tool itself can lead to dangerous situations.
5) Service
a) Only let qualified service personnel repair your tool
and always use original replacement parts. This guarantees that the power tool remains safe to use.
m Safety instructions for all saws
a) DANGER: Do not put your hands in the sawing area or
on the saw blade. Keep your second hand on the extra
handle of the motor housing. If both hands are holding
the saw, neither can be injured by the saw blade.
b) Do not put your hands under the work piece. The protective cap cannot protect your hands from the blade
when they are under the work piece.
c) Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the work
piece. Less than one complete sawing tooth should be
visible under the work piece.
d) Never hold the work piece that is to be sawn in your
hand or over your leg. Make sure that the work piece has
a stable balance. It is important that the work piece is
held securely, in order to minimize the danger of contact
of a body part with the saw, loss of control over the saw,
or jamming of the blade.
e) Hold the equipment on the insulated handles, when
you undertake work in which the tool being used could
come into contact with hidden electrical wires, or its own
cable. Contact with a live power source can electrify the
metal parts of the tool and lead to an electrical shock.
f) When making a long cut, always use a stop chock or a
straightedge. This improves the accuracy of the cut and
reduces the chance that the saw blade jams.
g) Always use the correct size of saw blades and make
sure they have the right locating bore (e.g. Star shaped
or round). Saw blades that do not fit the assembly of the
saw do not run correctly and cause loss of control.
h) Never use damaged or incorrect saw blade shims or
screws.
The saw blade shims and screws are designed especially
for your saw, for optimal performance and operating safety.
m Additional safety instructions for all saws
Causes and prevention of kickbacks:
• Akickbackisasuddenreactionduetoacaught,jammed or incorrectly adjusted saw blade, which leads to
the saw rearing up in an uncontrolled manner and moving
out of the work piece towards the operator.
• Ifasawbladecatchesorjamsinthesawingedgethat
closes behind it, it is blocked and motor’s drive pushes
the saw back in the direction of the operator.
• Ifthe sawbladetwistsin the sawgrooveoris incorrectly positioned, the teeth at the rear side of the saw
blade edge catch in the surface of the work piece. The
saw then moves out of the saw groove and springs back
in the direction of the operator.
• Akickbackresults from an incorrect or faulty use of
the saw. It can be prevented, as will be described in the
following, by appropriate cautionary measures.
a) Hold onto the saw with both hands and position your
arms so that they can absorb any energy from a kickback. Always keep to the side of the saw blade, and
never bring it into line with your body. In the case of a
kickback, the circular saw can jump backwards, but with
adequate caution the operator can deal with the energy
of the kickback.
b) If the saw blade jams or you want to interrupt your
work, then turn the saw off and keep the work piece still
until the saw blade comes to a full stop. Never try to remove the saw from the work piece or pull it out when the
saw blade is moving since then a kickback can occur.
Find out the cause of the jam and remove it.
c) If you want to start up a saw that is in the work piece,
centre the saw blade in the sawed groove and check that
the saw blade teeth are not caught in the work piece. If
the saw blade is jammed, it can jump out of the work
piece or cause a kick back when it is started up.
d) Support larger work pieces in order to reduce the risk
of a kick back due to a saw blade jam. The weight of
larger work pieces can cause them to bend. Large pieces
must be supported on both sides, both near the sawing
slot as well as on the edges.
e) Do not use dull or damaged saw blades. Saw blades
with dull or misaligned teeth increase the friction, in the
sawing slot, cause saw blade jams and kickbacks.
f) Before you start sawing, tighten the adjustments for
the cut depth and angles. If you change settings while
sawing, the saw blade can jam and a kickback is the
result.
g) Be particularly careful when making “inserted cuts” in
walls that already exist or other areas where you cannot
see what is behind the surface. When the saw blade is
inserted into the wall it can be blocked by hidden objects
and cause a kick back.
mSafety instructions for inserted circular saw use
a) Each time before you use the saw, make sure that the
protective covering closes. Do not use the saw if the protective covering cannot move freely and does not close
immediately. Never clip or tie the protective covering
in an opened position. If the saw should accidentally
fall to the ground, the protective covering can get bent.
Make sure that the protective covering can move freely
and does not touch the saw blade or other parts in all
cutting positions.
b) Check the condition and function of the spring for the
protective covering. Have the saw repaired before use if
the protective covering and spring do not work perfectly.
Damaged parts, sticky residuals or piles of saw dust can
interfere with the working of the lower protective cover.
c) When making an “inserted cut” that does not describe
a right angle, make sure that the saw is guarded against
Page 6
slipping to the side. Slippage can lead to a saw blade
Page 6
Instruction Manual for cs-55 (W874)
17/12/2014
jam and a kickback.
d) Do not put the saw on the workbench or the floor without making sure that the protective cover is over the
saw blade. An unprotected, running saw blade can move
the saw against the cutting direction and saw what is in
the way. Check the delay time of the saw.
Do not use any saw blades which do not correspond to
the characteristics described in these operating instructions. Saw blades may not be brought to a stop by pressure on the machine from the side.
Make sure that the saw blade is tightly assembled and
turns in the correct direction.
m Special Safety Instructions
mAdditional safety instructions for all
sawing with a wedge
a) Use the right wedge for the saw blade that is in use.
The wedge must be thicker than the thickness of the
steel blade but thinner than the width of the teeth.
b) Adjust the wedge as described in the operating instructions. Incorrect thickness, position or direction can
be the reason that the wedge does not effectively prevent a kickback.
c) Always use a wedge, except when making an inserted
cut. Reassemble the wedge after an inserted cut. The
wedge is in the way when making an inserted cut and
can cause a kickback.
d) In order for the wedge to be effective, it must be in
the sawing gap. For short cuts, a wedge does not work
to prevent kickbacks.
e) Never run the saw with a bent wedge. Even the smallest defect can slow down the closing of the protective
cover.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL SAWS
• Do not use a sanding belt.
• Make sure that the wedge is adjusted so that the di-
stance to the sprocket ring of the saw blade is not
more than 5 mm and that the sprocket ring does not
stick out more than 5 mm above the lower edge of
the wedge.
• Make sure that the dust catching mechanism is correctly installed, as is described in this manual.
• Wear breathing protection.
• Only those saw blades recommended in the manual
should be used.
• Always wear ear protection.
• Replace the saw blades as described in this manual.
• The maximum cut depth is 55 mm.
Safety instructions for circular saws
- Hold the equipment on the insulated handles, when
you undertake work in which the tool being used could
come into contact with hidden electrical wires, or its own
cable. Contact with a live power source can electrify the
metal parts of the tool and lead to an electrical shock.
