MAINTENANCE
!
!
IMPORTANT! Before any inspection or
adjustment, always disconnect the tool from
the power supply by unplugging it.
!
!
IMPORTANT! Do not tamper or attempt to
repair the electrical tool.
The working life and costs also depend on con-
stant and meticulous maintenance.
Take good care of your electrical tool and clean it
regularly. In this way its efficiency will be ensured
and its lifespan extended.
- Remove dust and machining residuals with a
brush with soft bristles.
- Do not wet or spray water over the electrical
tool - risk of internal infiltrations.
- Do not use any inflammables, detergents or
solvents.
- The plastic parts can easily be damaged by
chemical agents.
- Do not use compressed air for cleaning: Risk
of material ejection!
Be careful when cleaning the switch, the hand
grips, the motor fan slots and the mobile guard.
- Remove any traces of wood resin.
- While cleaning observe the whole electrical tool
in order to discover any breakages or faults.
REPLACING THE BLADE (fig. E)
!
!
IMPORTANT! Before carrying out the fol-
lowing operations, make sure that the plug is
disconnected from the mains.
!
!
IMPORTANT! After cutting the blade rea-
ches high temperatures: wait for it to cool
down before replacing it.
!
!
IMPORTANT! The blade has very sharp
edges: use gloves to prevent serious injuries.
!
!
IMPORTANT! The assembly of the blade
must be carried out with absolute precision. In-
correct assembly causes very serious danger.
When replacing the blade, proceed as follows. The
operation must be carried out by an expert; if in
doubt please contact an authorised service centre.
1) Unplug the tool from the electric power supply
2) For correct reassembly, carefully observe the
various components before proceeding
3) Use the 2 keys supplied (pos.20,21) to per-
form the operation, one to lock the rotation, the
other to unscrew the screw.
4) Remove the outside flange (pos.15) and
extract the blade (the inside flange must stay
assembled on the motor shaft) To facilitate
the operation turn the mobile guard (pos.10)
through half a turn and keep it open.
5) Clean components and the new blade
6) Assemble the new blade
observing the ro-
tation direction:
the blade arrow must match
the one impressed on the machine
7) Reassemble the outside flange, ensuring that
the shaped hole of the flange itself is placed on
the shaped shaft of the motor
8) Tighten the screw with washer well without
hitting the key with a hammer or other tool
9) Carefully check that the blade guard goes
back into rest position and that it works
correctly
10) Make sure the blade turns freely without
jerks
11) Carry out a test with the machine running
idle.
BLADE GUIDE DIVIDER KNIFE ADJUSTMENT
(fig.F)
When you change the blade check the alignment
of the divider knife (pos.24) in relation to the
blade itself; its position must be somewhere
between the indicated values fig.F.
IMPORTANT! The blade guide knife is an im-
portant element for your safety. Do not remove
it for any reason.
Should adjustment be necessary, proceed as
follows:
1) Unscrew the knife adjustment screw by one
turn only.
2) Line up the divider knife as illustrated so that
the distance between the divider knife and the
edge of the blade is no more than 5 mm, and
the blade edge does not stick out any more
than 5 mm beyond the lower edge of the
divider knife.
3) Tighten the divider knife fixing screw again.
4) Check the alignment with the blade.
MOTOR BRUSHES
The motor of this machine is equipped with a
