Setting up the saw carriage
!
WARNING!
The saw carriage is heavy. Two
persons are needed to handle
it.
NOTE!
Do not place the saw carriage on the
rails or any other hard surface too
hastily. This can cause permanent
damage to the saw carriage bearings.
NOTE!
Do not place the saw carriage directly
on the ground where dirt and impurities
can come in contact with the saw
carriage wheels.
Place the saw carriage onto the rails, and posi-
tion it by carrying out the following:
1. Arrange for two persons, one on each side,
to take hold of the saw carriage. Lift the saw
carriage as follows:
Right side: At the crank for band tensioning
and under the blade wheel guard.
Left side: At the motor bar and the blade
wheel guard.
2. Lift the saw carriage and lower it carefully on
the rails. The grooved rim of the wheels at
the base of the carriage must fit over and rest
on the rails.
To adjust the position of the saw
carriage
The position of the saw carriage on the rails can
be adjusted when the guide wheels and rail
guards are mounted. The purpose of the guide
wheels (bearings) is to retain the saw carriage on
the rails and to prevent it from tilting. The rail
guards are designed to keep the rails and the
saw carriage wheels free of dirt and the like.
The following parts must be mounted on the saw
carriage:
• Two guide wheels (bearings)
• Four saw carriage rail guards.
To mount them, proceed as follows:
1. Fit the guide wheel mounting bracket in
position by means of screws. Hold a 0,2 mm
thick feeler gauge between the guide wheel
and the rail.
2. Press the guide wheel upward against the
rail and tighten screws of the guide wheel
mounting bracket to secure it in position.
Tightening torque: 40-50 Nm. Then remove
the feeler gauge.
3. Repeat steps 1-2 above when fitting the
other guide wheel.
4. Fit the four rail guards over each grooved-rim
wheel.
