Sawband
Selecting the correct sawband is decisive for
cutting performance. Observethe table of the Ope-
rating Instructions.
Narrow sawbands can cut smaller radii than broad
saw bands.
The smallest radius for blade widths
Use only sharpened, flawless sawbands. Faulty
sawbands increase the risk of accidents and
reduce cutting performance.
Changing sawbands
Fig."8"
The machine is delivered with a new, standard
sawband (15 mm).
The sawband may only be changed when the
mains plug is pulled!
Always wear suitable gloves when handling
sawbands!
The sawband is loosened for removal by
turning the upper handle counterclockwise.
The new sawband is tensioned by turning the
upper handle clockwise.
IMPORTANT when installing a sawband:
• Reset the counterpressure bearings
and guide rollers.
• Check sawband for flaws (cracks,
broken teeth) before installation.
• Check the running direction of the
sawband before placing onto the band
wheels.Teeth should point downwards
towards the saw bench.
• The sawband must be placed between
the upper and lower guide rollers.
• Tighten the placed sawband lightly.
• Tum the band wheel clockwise by
hand and carry out the final tightening
while the band is running evenly.
• Broad sawbands must be tensioned
more firmly than narrow ones.
• Overtensioning of the sawband can
lead to premature breakage.
Sawband path side correction
Fig."9"
Side correction may only be carried
out with the machine at a tull stop and
with the mains plug pulled!
The sawband must run on the center of the band
wheels. Loosen the knurled nuts (1) on the under-
side of the of the handle.
Turn the upper band wheel by hand in the cutting
direction while simultaneously tuming the handle to

the right (+).
The saw band then runs more toward the rear.
When the sawband runs evenly, re-tighten the
knurled nuts on the handle.
Counterpressure bearing
Fig. „10"
lnsure that the sawband runs evenly before
setting the counterpressure bearing.
The setting must be carried out while the ma-
chine is at a full stop!
The counterpressure bearings take the feed pres-
sure of the workpiece.
Set the counterpressure bearings above and
below saw bench so that they contact the sawband
lightly. Tum the band wheel by hand in the sawing
direction at the same time.
The counterpressure bearings must run with the
sawband during operation.
Reset the counterpressure bearings every time
the sawband is changed!
Guide rollers
Fig."11"
lnsure that the sawband runs evenly before
setting the guide rollers.
The setting must be carried out while the ma-
chine is at a full stop!
The guide rollers take the side pressure of the
workpiece.
Reset the guide rollers above and below saw
bench to the suitable sawband width. They may
reach up to the base of the teeth of the sawband.
Set the guide rollers so that they contact the saw-
band lightly. Tum the band wheel by hand in the
sawing direction at the same time.
The guide rollers must run with the sawband during
operation.
The sawband must not jam!
Reset guide rollers every time the sawband is
changed!
Cutting height adjustment
Fig."12"
The setting must be carried out while the ma-
chine is at a full stop!
The cutting height is adjustable from 0 - 300 mm
over the beneh.
Height adjustment is carried out continually using
the large hand wheel and remains in any position
due to the automatie clamping function.
For your own safety, always set the sawband
guide as close to the workpiece as possible.
