MAINTENANCE
DANGER
Before all cleaning & maintenance work, switch the device off & disconnect the mains plug from
the electrical source. Wait until all moving parts have come to a complete stop & the device has
cooled.
PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
Inspect the general condition of the entire product. Check for loose screws, misalignment or binding
of moving parts, cracked or broken parts, and any other condition that may affect its safe operation.
Remove all debris from the log bench with a soft brush, vacuum or compressed air.
Maintenance should be performed every time that the saw bench is used.
Always Check:
Nuts, bolts, & fittings
–
make sure all are tight and secure.
Cutting blade conditions
–
sharpen or replace a dull or damaged blade.
SHARPENING THE CUTTING BLADE
The saw-blade can be sharpened several times without removing it from the machine. Use a fine-cut
square-blade file of 8-12" for sharpening. During manual sharpening, only file the front rake of the
tooth over a distance of about 5- 7mm.
Always keep the original shape of the tooth. Do not make sharp notches at the root of the tooth with
the file.
Always clean the blade-clamps carefully. Check the blade carefully to ensure you are never sawing
with a cracked blade
REPLACING THE CUTTING BLADE
SAFETY GLOVES MUST BE WORN AT ALL TIMES.
Remove the plug from the socket to make
sure that the saw power is off. If the saw
has been used recently, wait until the
cutting blade cools down.
Loosen lock nut M10 and remove the
elastic collar to take off the pushing bar.
Loosen the 2 bolts in the triangle stand
fixed on the axle of the moveable blade
guard so that there is a gap between the
triangle stand and the blade guard.
Hold the front clamp with a large wrench
(A) to stop the rotation of the blade.
Loosen & remove the nut with a spanner
(B) & then take off the front clamp. Replace
the old cutting blade with the new one.
Remount the new cutting blade using the
reverse of the above procedure, making
sure that all nuts and bolts are tightened
down.
