Saw blade
!
WARNING!
Always use protective gloves
when handling the saw blade!
On delivery, a new saw blade is
coiled up under high mecha-
nical tension.
Unpack the saw blade carefully
so that it will not pop open and
cause injuries!
Only saw blades with order number 531 0194-65
are allowed to be used.
Mount the saw blade as follows:
1. Remove the guard over the blade wheel. The
guard is secured by three rubber straps, an
upper, a lower and an intermediate strap.
2. Use the crank to reposition the adjustable
blade wheel forward until the blade wheels
are at minimum distance from one another.
3. Lower the blade guard (27) and fit the saw
blade in position with its teeth facing outward.
Make sure that the saw blade runs in the
movable blade guide (12) and in the fixed
blade guide (B).
4. Turn the crank to tension the saw blade until
the suspension washers are correctly
compressed. See the figure.
Rotate the blade wheel a few turns by hand
to centre the saw blade on the blade wheels.
Caution! Do not tension the saw blade so
hard that this compresses the washers
completely. This is important! The washers
must have a certain spring action in order to
absorb variations in blade tension.
Improper blade tension (too hard or too
loose) involves the risk of the saw blade
wandering and slipping off the blade wheel.
5. Adjust the blade guides to allow 0,2 mm of
play.
The saw blade should just tangent the upper
section of the blade guide.
The play should be between the saw blade
and the upper section of the blade guard.
6. Raise the blade guard (27).
7. Refit the guard over the blade wheel and refit
the rubber retaining straps.
