Preparing for use Adjusting the ribbed belt tension Generally, the ribbed belt tension must be set correctly when starting the power tool. At initial starting, at re-starting after extended stand still, after replacement of the ribbed belt or after any other assembly work, always check the tension and set the correct tension if required.
Preparing for use Relocate cutting device from centre position to outer position The power tool is delivered for operation of the cut-off wheel in the centre position by default. Generally, the power tool is more balanced in the centre position, because the weight is distributed symmetrically to the centre axis and the cut therefore is easier to guide.
