Replacing tool
As we have already said, this machine uses different kinds of blades according to
the material to be cut. The procedures described below, however, also apply in
the event of wear or breakage of the blade. To replace the blade, proceed as
follows:
"
switch off the machine and position the head so that the disc is easily accessi-
ble;
"
the machine is equipped with a vertical pneumatic vice that can be moved
away from the guard by unfastening the screw fixing it to the support;
"
remove the screw with knob to free the plexiglass guard cover and lift it off in
a vertical direction;
"
use a 19 mm spanner to slacken the hexagonal screw that locks the disc, turn-
ing the spanner in the direction of rotation of the disc; remove the old disc
and insert the new one, making sure that the centering pins fit correctly into
the holes in the disc.
Make sure that the teeth on the cutter blade are facing in the direction of rota-
tion. When changing the tool, turn the cutter blade until drive is engaged to
eliminate any backlash in the drive pins.
