The smallest possible distance to the work piece en-
sures the optimum band guide and a safe working!
8.6.1 Counterpressure bearing, Fig. 15
The counterpressure bearings (26) absorb the feed
pressure of the work piece.
Adjust the upper and lower counterpressure bearings
in such a manner that they slightly strike against the
saw band back.
8.6.2 Guiding rollers, Fig. 15
Adjust the upper and lower guiding rollers (27) to the
corresponding saw band width. The front edges of
the guiding rollers may at maximum extend until the
tooth root surface of the saw band. If the guiding roll-
ers slightly touch the saw band, fix the position of the
rollers with the knurled screw. The saw band must not
choke up!
8.7 Replacement of the table inlay, Fig. 9
The table inlay (14) must be replaced if the slit enlarg-
es or is damaged.
1. Remove the table inlay from the sawing table by
pressing downwards.
2. Insert a new table inlay.
Make sure that the top surface of the table insert is at
the same height as the saw bench.
8.8 On/Off switch, Fig. 1
• To turn the machine on, press the green button „1"
(8). Before starting sawing, wait until the saw blade
has reached its maximum speed.
• To turn the machine off again, press the red but-
ton „0"(8).
• The band saw is equipped with an undervoltage
switch. With a power failure, the band saw must be
switched back on again.
8.9 Speed adjustment, Fig. 1+14+14.1+14.2
Pull the mains plug!
• Open the housing door (1)
• Open the quick-release lever for belt tension (16)
Fig. 14.1 at the back of the machine and slide the
motor (11) to the left. Now gently close the quick-re-
lease lever again. Tension on the drive belt is now
relieved.
• Move belt into the desired position (Fig. 14.2)
• Open the quick-release lever again for belt tension
(16) and press the motor gently to the right to ten-
sion the belt. Close the quick-release lever again.
• Close the housing door (1).
Rpm range:
1. Rpm stage 1: 700 m/min.
For processing hardwood, materials similar to
hardwood and for fine cuts.
2. Rpm stage 2: 1000 m/min.
For processing softwoods and for less fine cuts.
Attention!
When working with the machine, all protective devices
and guards must be fitted.
The upper and lower bandwheel is protected by a fixed
guard and an articulated cover. When opening the cov-
er, the machine is switched off. Starting is possible
only with closed cover.
9. Transport
• The machine must only be lifted and transported on
its frame or the frame plate. Never lift the machine
at the safety devices, the adjusting levers, or the
sawing table.
• During the transport the saw blade protection must
be in the lowest position and near the table.
• Never raise at the table! Unplug the machine from
the mains during transport.
• To use the transport device, insert the transport
handle (19) in the transport handle opening. (After
inserting the transport handle (19), turn it a bit so that
it cannot slide out)
• Now lift the machine on the transport handle (19)
far enough that the machine stands on the two rear
wheels (18) and can be moved.
• Pay attention to the machine's high centre of gravity
(top-heavy).
10. Working instructions
The following recommendations are examples of the
safe use of band saws. The following safe working
methods should be seen as an aid to safety. They can-
not be applied suitably completely or comprehensively
to every use. They cannot treat every possible danger-
ous condition and must be interpreted carefully.
• Connect the machine to a suction unit when working
in closed rooms.
• Switch on the extraction system before machining
commences.
• Details in relation to the wood chip and saw dust ex-
traction unit installed on the machine:
- Required volumetric air flow rate: 700 m
