Maintenance

Warning: For your own safety, turn off the motor and un-
plug the machine before you maintain or lubricate it.
General Maintenance
Wipe sawdust and dust from the machine occasionally with
a rag. Lubricate the rotating parts once a month in order
to extend the lifetime of the machine. The motor should
not be lubricated.
Clean the steering shaft in the intake slit regularly.
Changing the Table Covers (fig. 8)
Warning: Always unplug the machine in order to prevent
unintentional start ups. Remove all small bits of material
from the groove in the table before beginning to saw. The
table cover may be removed for this purpose. But it must
always be replaced before resumption of sawing.
• Before starting to saw always check whether the saw
blade can move freely and does not touch the table cov-
er. Such contact can damage the saw blade, the table
cover or the rotating table.
• In order to remove the table cover, loosen and remove
the six screws (1) on the table cover (2) with a screw-
driver.
• For installation, position the table cover and retighten
the six screws.
• Check whether the saw blade can move freely by moving
the saw blade in the table slit completely through the
intake slit.
Changing Batteries (fig. 27)
Unplug the machine. If this is not done, the machine could
unintentionally start up and cause severe injuries.
• Remove the laser unit from the machine.
• Loosen and remove the two screws, then remove the la-
ser unit cover.
• Remove the three batteries (fig. 27) and replace them
with new ones.
• Install the laser protective cover again and tighten the
two screws.
Note: Replacement batteries must have a voltage of 1.5
(No. LR 44).
When batteries are changed, the battery cover must be
carefully cleaned. Use a soft brush or something similar to
remove sawdust or other detritus.
Changing the Belts (fig. 28, 29)
Unplug the machine.
• Loosen the screws (1, fig. 28) and remove the belt cov-
er.
• Turn the screw (2, fig. 29) in an anti-clockwise direction
with an Allen key in order to move the motor forwards.
• Change the belts.
• Turn the screw (2, fig. 29) in a clockwise direction with
an Allen key to move the motor backwards. Do not over-
tighten.
• Replace the belt cover and tighten the screws.
Inspecting the Brushes
Check the new motor brushes for the first time after 50
hours of operation, after that every ten hours of operation.
Should the carbon be worn down to 6 mm or a feather or
wire be burned through or damaged, then both brushes
should be changed. Should it be determined when the
brushes have been removed that they can still be used,
then they can be replaced in the machine.
Workpiece Support & Repetitive Cutting Using the Stop
Plate (fig. 32)
Long pieces need extension table support.
• Loosen the knob (1) then slide the extension table to
desired position and tighten the knob.
• The stop plate is designed for use during repetitive cut-
ting. Only use one stop plate at a time. Loosen the lock-
ing bolt (2), rotate the stop plate (3) to vertical position,
and retighten the locking bolt.
Using the Vice (fig. 33)
NOTE: The vice of your saw is used to secure the workpiece
during cutting operations.
• Rotate the knob (1) counterclockwise to allow enough
room for the workpiece (2) to fit between the vice clamp
(3) and the table.
• Position the workpiece (2) between the vice clamp (3)
and the table. Turn the knob (1) clockwise to clamp the
workpiece (2) securely.
• The vice clamp (3) incorporates a quick release locking
knob (4). To use the quick release feature, loosen the
quick release locking knob (4) and slide the vice clamp
(3) up or down to the desired position.
• When vice clamp (3) is in desired location, tighten the
quick release locking knob (4). Begin to turn the knob
(1) clockwise to secure the workpiece (2) with the vice
clamp (2).
A warning:
- that the vibration emission during actual use of the
power tool can differ from the declared total value
depending on the ways in which the tool is used; and
- of the need to identify safety measures to protect the
operator that are based on an estimation of exposure in
the actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts
of the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is
switched off and when it is running idle in addition to the
trigger time).
