front side of the base frame is different than
on the rear side. Take care to position the ma-
chine frame correctly!
•
Place the machine frame (25) on the base
frame and use the screws (d), washers (c),
spring washers (b) and nuts (a) to screw-fit
the two components.
•
Use the Socket head screws (o), washers (p),
spring washers (q) and nuts (r) to to screw-fit
the supporting feet (106) to the foot struts
(105). Then use the Socket head screws (o),
washers (p), spring washers (q) and nuts (r)
to join the two supporting feet to the cross bar
(107).
6.1.2 Fitting the saw table (Fig. 4-5)
•
Remove the bolt (4) by opening the groove in
the saw table by levering and twisting simulta-
neously, e.g. with a screwdriver.
•
Place the saw table (15) in its mount and se-
cure it with the locking grip (18).
•
Screw-fit the mounting plate and, if necessa-
ry, set the angle scale pointer precisely (see
6.6)
•
Tap in the bolt so that it is flush with the table
surface.
•
Secure the bars with scale (39, 40) on the
saw table. The zero position can be adjusted
by shifting sideways.
•
To disassemble, proceed in reverse order
6.2 Tensioning the blade (Figure 1)
•
CAUTION!
Remove the tension from the
blade if the bandsaw is not going to be used
for some time. Be sure to re-tension the blade
before you start the machine.
•
Turn the tightening screw (9) for tensioning
the blade (26) in a clockwise direction.
•
The correct blade tension can be checked
by applying pressure to the side of the blade
with your finger, somewhere in the middle
between the two blade pulleys (7 + 8). You
should only be able to bend the blade (26)
very slightly (approx. 1-2 mm).
•
When the blade is tensioned enough, it will
produce a metallic sound when tapped.
•
Take the tension off the blade when you do
not want to use it for some time; this will help
to prevent overstretching.
•
IMPORTANT!
The blade may break if the ten-
sion is too high. BEWARE OF INJURY! If the
tension is too low, the powered blade pulley
(7) will spin while the blade does not move.
6.3 Adjusting the blade (FIG. 1a, 2)
•
CAUTION! The blade tension has to be set
correctly before you can adjust the blade.
•
Undo the fasteners (13) and open the side
cover (12).
•
Slowly turn the upper blade pulley (8) clock-
wise by hand. The blade (26) should run in
the middle of the pulley. If it does not, you will
have to adjust the tilt of the upper blade pulley
(8).
•
If the blade (26) tends to run to the back of
the blade pulley (8), i.e. towards the machine
frame (25), turn the setting screw (22) anti-
clockwise while turning the blade pulley (8) by
hand until the blade (26) runs in the middle.
•
If the blade (26) tends to run to the front edge
of the blade pulley (8), turn the setting screw
(22) in a clockwise direction.
•
After setting the upper blade pulley (8) you
need to check the blade (26) position on the
lower blade pulley (7). The blade (26) should
run in the middle of the blade pulley (7), as
above. If it does not, you will have to adjust
the tilt of the upper blade pulley (8) again.
•
Turn the upper blade pulley several times
until the adjustment to the upper blade pulley
(8) has an effect on the blade position of the
lower blade pulley (7).
•
After any adjustments have been carried out,
the side covers (12) must be closed again
and re-secured with the fasteners (13).
6.4 Setting the blade guide (Fig. 7 - 10)
Whenever you change the blade you must re-set
both the support bearings (30 + 31) and the guide
pins (28 + 29).
•
Undo the fasteners (13) and open the side
cover (12).
6.4.1. Upper support bearing (30)
•
Undo the screw (33).
•
Move the support bearing (30) so that it is no
longer touching the blade (26). There should
be a maximum gap of 0.5 mm.
•
Re-tighten the screw (33).
6.4.2. Adjusting the lower support bearing
(31)
•
Remove the saw table (15) or tilt it 45°.
•
Swing the blade guard (34) away.
•
Adjust in the same way that the upper support
bearing was adjusted. The blade (26) is only
supported by the support bearings (30 + 31)
during cutting. When idle the blade should not
touch the ball bearing.
