5. Machine description
5.1. Band guide
Before and after the cut the saw band is guided in two guide heads provided with eccentrically arranged bearings enabling an easy
setting of the band in comparison with the guiding on moving wheels and guided in the hard-metal guides on both sides and on the
upper band edge. The right-hand guide head is fixed. The left-hand guide head mounted on the guide bar is moving and is fed as
close as possible to the work. It is provided with a protective cover as far as the machining zone.
The saw band is not protected in
the machining zone!
5.2. Back arm cover removal
Disconnect the machine by the main switch or disconnect the machine from the network. Pull out the cover of the front lath (A) and
remove it, nearest broken barriers (B) and the rear cover of the arm (C) tilt (1), lift in the front part (2) pull out the rear cover by moving
forward and backward (3).
The rear arm is attached in the opposite manner. Switch on the main switch or connect the machine to the network. The arm is located
in the semi-position of terminal switches; therefore, it is necessary to switch the lift of the arm into position 1 and the arm moves into
the upper position. Then cutting can start in manual or automatic mode or the arm can be lowered in manual mode by the START
LOWERING IN MANUAL MODE button.

The TOTAL STOP button is unblocked. The cutting mode is in the manual position. When the MAIN SWITCH is ON, press the
HYDRAULIC AGGREGATE START button. Close the regulation valve of the damping cylinder (see Chapter 5.9.) and lift the arm into
the upper position (see Chapter 5.7.). Press the lowering by the START LOWERING IN MANUAL MODE button. Lower the arm
approximately 20 mm above the fixed jaw of the clamp and arrest it with the regulation valve (see Chapter 5.9.) to prevent the
lowering of the arm.
Caution! It can only be done when the main switch is off and secured against switching
on again or when the machine is disconnected from the mains.
Caution! Danger of injury by the sharp band teeth. Use protective gloves. Do not touch
the guide wheels and the band.
