Mounting saw blades (fig. B)
The opening in the saw blade holder
(4) must be clean and free from saw
dust.
• Loosen the set screws (10).
• Slide the saw blade up to the stop
in the saw blade holder (4). Make
sure that the back of the saw blade
engages in the slot of the guide roller
(11).
• Tighten the set screws (10) firmly.
The set screws (10) may loosen
during use by vibration and damage
the saw blade. Regularly check that
the saw blade is fastened firmly and
if necessary fasten the set screws.
Only carryout this inspection when the
machine has been switched off, the
plug has been removed from the wall
socket and the saw blade has come to
a stand still!
Sharp saw blades produce the best
result. Replace worn saw blades on
time by new ones. Remember that
continuous use of worn saw blades
reduces the accuracy of the machine
and may lead to overloading the
motor!
