6.6. Adjusting the saw table (15) to 90°
(12/13)
•
Slacken the locking grip (18) and the locking
lever (56) and open the cover at the blade
guide (11).
•
Place the angle (d) between the blade (26)
and the table (15). The angle (d) is not inclu-
ded in delivery.
•
Tilt the saw table (15) by turning it so that the
angle between it and the blade (26) is pre-
cisely 90°.
•
Tighten the locking grip (18) and the locking
lever (56) again and close the cover at the
blade guide (11).
•
Slacken the nut (42).
•
Adjust the screw (41) until there is contact
with the machine housing.
•
Re-tighten the nut (42) to fasten the screw
(41).
6.7. Blade selection
The blade supplied with the bandsaw is designed
for all-purpose use. When you select a blade you
should have regard to the following criteria:
•
Use a narrow blade to cut tighter radii than
you can with a wider blade.
•
Wide blades are used to saw straight cuts.
This is particularly important in cutting wood
because the blade has a tendency to follow
the grain of the wood and thereby deviate ea-
sily from the cutting line.
•
Finely toothed blades provide smoother cuts
but are slower than coarse blades.
Caution! Never use warped or lacerated bla-
des!
6.8. Changing the saw blade (Fig. 1/14a/14b)
•
Remove the cover (57).
•
Move the blade guide (11) into a position ap-
proximately half way between the table (15)
and the machine housing (25).
•
Undo the fasteners (13) and open the side
cover (12).
•
Remove the web panel (4).
•
Turn the tightening screw (9) counterclockwi-
se to remove the tension from the blade (26).
•
Remove the blade (26) from the blade pulleys
(7,8) and take out through the slot in the table
(15).
•
Fit the new blade (26), aligned centrally on
the blade pulleys (7,8). The teeth of the blade
(26) must point downwards in the direction of
the table.
•
Tension the blade (26) (see 6.2).
•
Close the side cover (12) again.
•
Mount the web panel (4) again.
•
Refit the cover.
6.9. Changing the rubber tires on the blade
pulleys (Figure 15)
After a certain time the rubber tires (3) on the bla-
de pulleys (7/8) will get worn by the sharp teeth of
the blades and must be replaced.
•
Open the side cover (12).
•
Remove the blade (26) (see 6.8).
•
Lift the edge of the tire (3) with a small
screwdriver (f) and then pull it off the upper
blade pulley (8).
•
Repeat for the lower blade pulley (7).
•
Fit the new tire (3), replace the blade (26) and
close the side cover (12).
6.10. Changing the table insert (Figure 16)
To prevent increased likelihood of injury the table
insert (17) should be changed whenever it is worn
or damaged.
•
Undo the fastening screw of the table insert
(17) using a Phillips screwdriver (h). (The
Phillips screwdriver is not included in delive-
ry.)
•
Lift out the worn table insert (17).
•
Fit the replacement table insert by following
the above in reverse.
6.11. Extractor sockets (
fi
g. 2)
The bandsaw is equipped with extractor sockets
(6) for extracting sawdust and chips.
Connect the bandsaw to a chip extraction system
(not included in delivery) by connecting the hose
of the extraction system to the extractor socket
(6).
6.12. Push stick holder (Fig. 6)
•
When not in use, the push stick must always
