Instruction for adjusting
GB
the MICRO-Bandsaw for
working with the
diamond sawband
NO 28186
The diamond saw band for cutting
ceramics, glass and fibreglass must
be used in conjunction with coolant
system!
Before assembling the diamond saw
band, check if the coolant system is
correctly connected and make sure,
that enough liquid is in the tank.
Choose concentration of the coolant
as mentioned in the manual. Please
consider also the details in the manual
of your Bandsaw.
The ball-bearing guide of band saw
must be checked for defective bear-
ings and, if applicable, adjusted
new. Proceed as follows:
1. The below bearing of the blade
guide 1 (Fig. 1) must stand in the
most front position (see mark "3" at
blade guide) for using the diamond
blade. Therefore please loosen
screw A with the Allen key and push
the square 2 fully ahead (trailing
edge of the square cuts the "3"
mark on the blade guide). For
adjusting also read the Instruction
Manual. Afterwards tighten screw A.
2. As the rear angle wears out after
lengthy use, both above bearings
must be adjusted in that way, that
the diamond coated front of the
band fits between the bearings. You
can adjust the bearing clearance
with an Allen key at screw 4 (Fig. 1).
Please attend: A too tightly adjusted
bearing clearance can cause seiz-
ing and thus breaking of the band.
3. Mount the diamond band and adjust
carefully the tension of the band, so
that it will be taken along by the
drive roll, but does not get over-
stretched.
4. Before starting to saw adjust the
guide component right above the
work piece. Therefore loosen toggle
screw (Fig. 2), push the guide com-
ponent into designated position and
then jam the toggle screw
5. While sawing assure a sensitive
feed! The smallest possible sawing
radius is 30mm (Fig. 3).
6. After working, relax the diamond
saw blade to prevent deformation of
the band or the pulley.
