Important! After you have adjusted the upper and
lower support bearings:
•
Turn the blade pulley several turns by hand.
•
Check the adjustment of the support bearings
and make corrections as required.
5.5 Adjusting the upper blade guide (Fig. 11)
•
Undo the locking handle (32).
•
Turn the adjustment wheel (31) to lower the
blade guide (11) as close as possible to the
workpiece to be cut (approx. 2-3 mm gap).
•
Re-tighten the locking handle (32).
•
Check the adjustment before each cut and
make corrections as required.
5.6 Adjusting the saw table to 90° (Fig. 4/12)
•
Adjust the blade guide (11) to maximum
height (see 5.5).
•
Use a 90° set-square (a) to check the angle
between the blade (26) and the saw table
(15). (This product does not come with a set-
square (a)).
•
You can readjust the stop of the saw table (15)
if required.
•
Slacken the wing handle (18) and the quick-
lock lever (20) and tilt the saw table (15) to
45°.
•
Slacken the lock nut (34).
•
Adapt the height of the stop screw (33) by tur-
ning it in or out, lower the saw table (15) again
onto the stop screw (33) and check again the
angle between the blade (26) and the saw
table (15).
•
Repeat these steps until the angle between
the blade (26) and the saw table (15) equals
exactly 90°.
•
Tighten the lock nut (34) again in order to se-
cure this setting.
•
Use the wing handle (18) and the quick-lock
lever (20) to secure the saw table again.
5.7 Blade selection
The blade supplied with the bandsaw is designed
for cutting wood and wood-type materials. When
you select a blade you should consider the fol-
lowing criteria:
•
With a narrow blade you can cut tighter radii
than with a wide blade.
•
Wide blades are used to perform straight cuts.
This is particularly important when cutting
wood because the blade has a tendency to
follow the grain of the wood and therefore to
deviate easily from the cutting line.
•
Finely toothed blades provide smoother cuts
but are slower than coarse blades.

Caution! Never use warped or lacerated bla-
des!
5.8 Replacing the blade (Figure 1/13/14)
•
Before you change the blade: Pull out the po-
wer plug!
•
To prevent injury: wear gloves when changing
the blade!
•
Open the two side covers (12) by slackening
the fastening handles (13).
•
Remove the web plate (22) (see 5.1).
•
Pull the push-in cover (10) up and out.
•
Move the blade guide (11) into a position half
way between the saw table (15) and the ma-
chine frame (25).
•
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 it out through the slot in the
saw table (15).
•
Fit the new blade (26) on the two blade pul-
leys (7, 8).
•
Caution! Pay attention to the running direc-
tion. The cutting angle of the teeth must point
in running direction, i.e. downwards from the
upper blade guide (11). (See the arrow on the
upper side cover (12)).
•
Re-insert the push-in cover (10).
•
Re-fit the web plate (22).
•
Tension and adjust the new blade (26), and
adjust the upper and lower support bearings
(see 5.2, 5.3, 5.4).
•
Close the side cover (12).
•
Warning! Each time after the blade (26) is
changed, check that it runs freely in the table
insert (17) when set to perpendicular and also
when set to 45° (with the saw table (15) tilted).
•
Check that all safety devices are in good wor-
king order before you begin working with the
saw again.
5.9 Changing the table insert (Fig. 15)
To prevent a higher risk of injury, the table insert
(17) must be replaced whenever it becomes worn
or damaged.
•
Undo the fastening screw of the table insert
(17) with a cross-head screwdriver (b). (This
product does not come with a cross-head
screwdriver (b))
•
Lift the worn table insert (17) up and out.
•
To fit the replacement table insert, proceed in
reverse order.
