of the blade with minimum play as shown.
When replacing the blade use a 0.9mm thick blade
for which the blade guides have been pre-set. For
of blades of another thickness, the adjustment
should be carried out as follows:
- Loosen nut (C), screw (B) and loosen dowel (D)
widening the passage between the pads.
- Loosen the nuts (H) and the dowels (I) and rotate
the pins (E - G) to widen the passage between the
bearings (F).
- To mount the new blade: place the pad (A) on the
blade, loosening the dowel, allow a play of 0.04
mm for the sliding of the toothed blade, lock the
relative nut and screw (B), Rotate the pins (E - G)
until the bearings rest against the blade as
indicated in the figure and then secure the dowels
(I) and nut (H).
- Make sure that between the blade and the upper
teeth of the pad (L) this is at least 0.2 - 0.3 mm of
play; if necessary, loosen the screws that fasten
the blocks and adjust accordingly.
