Changing the Saw Blade
Notice: Improperly inserting and changing the fitted tools may result in injury.
Before working on the saw, pull the mains plug out of the socket.
Do not use any defective fitted tool or tools that are cracked or chipped.
Check the tool for damage before inserting it.
Do not use any flange/flange nuts if their hole is larger or smaller than the
hole in the fitted tool.
Only use tools of the same type as those shipped with the saw. Consult a
qualified professional or the Westfalia Customer Service when in doubt.
1. Hold the spindle lock 26 down and turn the spindle (28) until it locks into
place.
2. Use the star hex key 23 to loosen the clamp screw (11) by turning it
clockwise and remove the clamp screw (see Fig. D).
3. Push the release button for the protective hood (3), push the protective
hood 9 back by pulling the lever for the protective hood 4 up. Hold the
protective hood while doing so.
4. If a fitted tool is already clamped in place, remove it.
5. Select a suitable fitted tool (15), (16), (17) or 18 for the material you intend
to work on.
6. Clean the spindle and insert a new fitted tool. Make sure that the saw teeth
of the fitted tool rotate in the right direction (see the jagged arrow on the
housing).
7. Tighten the clamp screw by turning counter-clockwise.
8. Take the star hex key out of the clamp screw.
9. Check whether the fitted tool is properly mounted, that the moving parts
move easily and that the clamp screw is securely tightened.
Notice: Before working with the saw, let the saw run idle for one minute after
changing/inserting a fitted tool to ensure that the fitted tool has been correctly
inserted.
