SETTINGS AND ADJUSTMENTS
Drive
On account of the machine’s unique design the driving power
is not transferred at the centre of the blade. The flanges on the
two guide rollers run in the blade’s groove. Springs on the
guide rollers press out the rollers, which in turn press the V-
shaped edge on the inside diameter of the blade against the
V-shaped groove in the drive wheel. The drive wheel is fitted
on an axle which is driven by the engine via a drive belt. This
allows a total cutting depth of 260 mm (10 inches) with a 350
mm (14 inches) diamond blade.

Checking wear
As the blade is used the inside diameter and the groove in the
drive wheel become worn.
The ring cutter will also work well in the future if:
•
the drive wheel is not too worn
A) New
B) Worn
•
the guide rollers are not too worn
A) New
B) Worn
•
adjustment between the rollers and blade is correct.
The roller setting should be checked twice during the life of
the diamond blade, once after fitting the blade and when the
blade is semi worn.
Fitting the blade
We offers a number of blades for different materials in its
range. Check with your Husqvarna dealer to see which blades
are best suited for your usage.
•
Wipe off any dirt from the surface of the blade.
•
Loosen the locking nuts on the support roller cover.
•
Unscrew the adjuster screws a few turns.
•
Loosen the knob to offload the springs.
•
Remove the four screws holding the support roller guard
using a 6 mm hex key and lift off the cover.
!
WARNING! It is forbidden to reconstruct a
used blade. A used blade may be weakened.
A reconstructed blade can crack or break
into pieces and seriously injury the operator
or other persons.
!
WARNING! Check that the blade is not
damaged before fitting it on the machine.
Damaged blades can disintegrate and cause
serious personal injury.
