operation. Do not forget that this must be exchanged
at the latest when it is 75% full (with oak and beech
wood dust ensure a dust free disposal!).
4.4 Saw blade selection
Use a sharp tool to obtain a good cut quality and
select a tool from the following list according to
material and application:
Cutting of solid wood crosswise and lengthwise
to the grain direction and cutting of uncoated chip
boards, plywood and the like:
-
TCT circular saw blade Ø 190 x 2.0 x 30 mm, (Ø 7
1/2 in. x 30 mm bore / 5/64 in. thickness), 36
alternate top bevels
Cutting of coated panels:
-
TCT circular saw blade Ø 190 x 2.0 x 30 mm, (Ø 7
1/2 in. x 30 mm bore / 5/64 in. thickness), 30
hollow bevels
Cutting of softwood crosswise to the grain
direction:
-
CV circular saw blade Ø 190 x 2.0 x 30 mm, (Ø 7
1/2 in. x 30 mm bore / 5/64 in. thickness), 56 teeth
4.5 Replacing the saw blade
Danger
Pull the power plug during all
service work.
Set the saw blade to the maximum cutting depth
(see chapter 5.4).
Turn the wing bolt 2 (Fig. 12 - page 4) at the
upper saw guard 1 approx. 5 turns
counterclockwise. Insert the wing bolt and
retract the saw guard upwards.
Reach through the front handle recess 10 (Fig.
10 – page 4) and pull the spring catch 20
forward. Lift the table insert 17, pull it forward
and remove it.
Press the locking button 21 (Fig. 9 - page 4) and
turn the saw blade 25 until the button engages.
Remove the hexagon head socket wrench 22
from its fixture 26 on the lower saw guard and
release the hexagon socket head cap screw 23
by turning
clockwise
.
Remove the front saw blade flange 24 and the
saw blade 25 upwards.
Insert the new saw blade.
Insert the flange 24 onto the two flats and
tighten the Hexagon socket head cap screw 23
by rotating
counterclockwise
with the hexagon
head socket wrench. Release the locking
button.
Check whether the saw blade runs smoothly
when turning by hand.
If required, adjust the riving knife/splitter
correctly (see chapter 4.6).
Remove the hexagon head socket wrench 22
and insert into the retaining bracket.
Push the table insert underneath the rear table
edge and then push it downward at the front
until it engages against the spring.
Fit the upper saw guard 1 (Fig. 12 - page 4) with
depressed wing bolt horizontally onto the riving
knife/splitter and ensure that the guide piece of
the wing bolt has firmly engaged in the drill hole
on the riving knife/splitter when you release the
wing bolt. Then align the saw guard in the
required position and tighten the wing bolt 2
again.
4.6 Riving knife/splitter
Danger
Pull the power plug during all
service work.
During longitudinal cutting, the riving knife/splitter
prevents that the kerf closes behind the saw blade,
resulting in a backlash of the workpiece.
However, this function is only guaranteed if the riving
knife/splitter is set correctly, i.e. if its distance to the
tooth rim of the saw blade across the entire cutting
depth is max. 5 mm (see Fig. 11) and its thickness
ranges between the kerf width and the body thickness
of the saw blade used. The provided riving
knife/splitter matches the carbide tipped saw blades
specified in Section 4.4.
Proceed as follows, if it is necessary to adjust the
riving knife/splitter:
Set the saw blade to the maximum cutting depth
(see chapter 5.4).
Remove the upper saw guard (see chapter 4.5).
