Maintenance And Cleaning - ATIKA BS 205-2 Originalbetriebsanleitung

The sawing process
1. Select and adjust parallel stopper (8) and saw table incline
corresponding to the cutting type.
When sawing with parallel stopper and inclined
saw table the work piece can cant. The parallel stopper
must therefore be fixed on the downwards inclined side of
the saw table.
2. Adjust distance between saw band coping and work piece
to 3 mm.
3. Put work piece on the saw table.
4. Put in power plug.
5. Switch on saw.
6. Saw through work piece in one work step.

Hint:
Make always a test cut to be able to correct the
adjustment.
7. Switch off saw when it is not intended to go on sawing.

Maintenance and cleaning

Before each maintenance and cleaning work
 switch off device
 wait for stop of saw
 pull out power plug
Further maintenance and cleaning works than described in this
chapter shall only be carried out by the manufacturer or
companies named by the manufacturer.
For maintaining and cleaning, removed security devices must
unconditionally be mounted properly and proved again.
Use only original parts. Other parts can result in unexpected
damages and injuries.
Cleaning

Observe the following to maintain the functionality of
the saw.
 Do not wash down device with water.
 Remove splints and sawdust only with a brush or vacuum
cleaner.
 Clean and oil all moving parts regularly.

Never use any grease!

Use for instance sewing machine oil, liquid hydraulic
fluid or environmentally acceptable spray oil.
 Provide that the saw band stays rust-free and resin-free.
 Remove all resin residues from the saw bench top.

Resin residues can be removed with a commercial
maintenance and care spray.
 Treat the surface of the saw table after cleaning with an
anti-blocking agent.
 The saw band is a wearing part and becomes edgeless
after longer or more frequent use respectively.

Renew then the saw band.
Maintenance
Saw band exchange
Danger of cutting! Wear gloves when replacing the
saw band.

Only use suitable saw bands.
1. Unscrew the two star knob nuts (A) and the nut (B) on
the underside of the saw table (6).
7. Pull off the stopper guidance profile (7).
2. Open both case doors (2 / 4).
3. Put the saw band coping (11) completely down.
4. Put upper band roll (13) down.
 turn the adjusting wheel (1) anti-clockwise, the saw band
is relaxed
5. Take out saw band.
6. Put in new saw band.

Pay attention to a correct position: the teeth must
show forward (direction door).
7. Put saw band centrally on the band rolls (13) / (5).
8. Turn adjusting wheel (1) clockwise until the saw band does
not glide off any longer.
9. Fasten guidance gib (7) and close lower case door.
10. Subsequently:
 Clamp saw band („Saw band tension" p. 19)
 Adjust saw band („Incline of the upper band saw roll" p.
19)
 Adjust band guidances („upper band guidance" and
„lower band guidance" p. 21)
 Keep saw running at least one minute for testing
 Switch off saw, pull out power plug and recheck
adjustments
Adjusting upper band guidance
The upper band guidance consists of:
 two guide pins (these guide the saw band laterally)
 a support roller (this supports the saw band from behind)

Check the two guide pins and the support roller after
each saw band exchange and each saw band
adjustment and readjust it if necessary.

Guide pins and support roller are wear parts. Check
these regularly and replace the rolls in case of wear at
the same time.
To adjust the guide pins:
1. Release screws (J / K).
2. Push the guide pins (L/ M) against the saw band.
3. Open upper door and turn band saw roll several times
manually clockwise.
 Both guide rollers must abut slightly on the saw band.
4. Fasten screws (J / K).
5. Close upper case door.
Adjust support roller:
1. Release screw (N).
2. Adjust support roller (O).
