7 Care and Maintenance

7.1 Replacing the saw blade (see fig. 5a and 5b):

If the saw blade is worn or you wish to use another type or a cutting
disc, you can quickly and easily exchange them.
Please note:
Replacement saw blades and a corundum cutting disc for the ma-
chine can be obtained on the market.
Please see our device catalogue or consult your nearest dealer!
Caution!
Disconnect the mains plug for all care and maintenance works!
1. Unscrew Allen screw 1 in saw blade protection 2 and fold saw
blade protection up as shown in fig. 5a.
2. Using an Allen key, unscrew screw 4 in the centre of saw blade
3 (see fig. 5b). Hold the shaft at the flat spot with an open-end-
ed spanner, Attention: Left-handed-thread!
3. Remove old saw blade. Mind flat washer 5 here.
4. Attach new saw blade and tighten with flat washer 5 and screw 4.
Caution!
Pay close attention to the running direction of the saw blade. When
viewed from the front side of the saw, the teeth must point down-
wards!
Be careful when using the corundum cutting disc (accessories, item
no.: 28 729):
The corundum cutting disc is very sensitive to bending. Do not touch
the disc when releasing or tightening the fastening screw. The disc
breaks very easily.
5. Fold down saw blade protection 2 once more and tighten using
Allen screw 1.
Caution!
Disconnect the mains plug for all care and maintenance works!

7.2 Cleaning

Caution!
Always disconnect the mains plug before doing any cleaning, setting,
maintenance or repair works!
Note:
The machine is mostly maintenance free. For a long service life, the
device should be cleaned after every use with a soft cloth, hand
brush or a soft brush. Even a vacuum cleaner can be recommend-
ed.
External cleaning of the housing can be carried out using a soft, pos-
sibly moist cloth. While doing so, a mild detergent or other suitable
cleansing agent can be used. Do not use solvents or cleansing agents
containing alcohol (e.g. benzene, cleaning alcohol, etc.) as these can
corrode the plastic housings.
