Tips and tricks

 Before making a cut: make a trial
cut on appropriate waste pieces.
Always lay the workpiece on the

saw table such that it cannot tip
over or wobble (e.g. place a curved
board with the convex side up).
 For long workpieces: use suitable
workpiece supports, for example
roller support or extension table
(see 'Available Accessories').
 Keep surfaces of the table top and
table extension clean – in particular,
remove resin residue with a suitable
cleaning and maintenance spray
(optional accessory).

10. Care and maintenance

A
Danger!
Unplug before servicing.
– Repair and maintenance work other
than described in this section
should only be carried out by quali-
fied specialists.
– Damaged parts, particularly safety
devices, must only be replaced with
genuine parts. Parts which have not
been tested and released by the
manufacturer can lead to unfore-
seen damage.
– Check that all safety devices are
operational again after each ser-
vice.

10.1 Saw Blade Change

A
Danger!
Directly after cutting the saw blade may
be very hot – burning hazard! Let a hot
saw blade cool down. Do not clean the
saw blade with combustible liquids.
Risk of injury, even with the blade at
standstill. Wear gloves when changing
blades.
When fitting a saw blade, observe the
direction of rotation!
1. Unscrew the fastening screws (73)
of the table insert and remove the
table insert.

2. Raise saw blade fully.
3. Remove blade guard.
4. Raise the swivel box lid slightly and
swing to the side. The swivel box lid
is hinged at the bottom and cannot
come off.
5. To lock the saw blade in place in-
sert the locating pin from above into
the hole drilled in the saw table. To
do this slowly rotate the saw blade
until the locating pin engages.

6. Remove the spindle nut (79) from
the saw spindle (76) using a span-
ner (left-hand thread!).
7. Carefully take the outer blade collar
(78) off the saw spindle. Hold the
saw blade while doing so.
8. Remove the saw blade and inner
blade collar (74) from the saw
spindle.
9. Clean the saw blade, saw spindle,
outer blade collar and inner blade
collar.
A
Danger!
73
Do not use cleaning agents (e.g. to
remove resin residue) that could cor-
rode the light metal components of
the saw; the stability of the saw
would be adversely affected.
10. Mount the inner blade collar on the
saw spindle. The driving pin (77) on
the saw spindle must be engaged in
the hole drilled in the blade collar.
11. Put on a fresh saw blade (observe
direction of rotation!). The driving
pin (77) on the saw spindle must be
engaged in one of the two holes
drilled in the saw blade.
A
Danger!
Use only suitable saw blades (see
'Available Accessories') – when
using unsuitable or damaged blades
parts could be flung out explosively
by centrifugal force.
Do not use:
– saw blades made of high-
75
strength steel (HSS or HS);
– saw blades with visible damage;
or
76
– cut-off wheel blades.
77
A
Danger!
– Mount saw blade only using ge-
nuine parts.
– Do not use loose-fitting reducing
rings; the saw blade could work
loose.
– Saw blades have to be mounted in
such way that they do not wobble
or run out of balance and can not
work loose during operation.
12. Mount the outer blade collar on the
saw spindle. The driving pin (77) on
the saw spindle must be engaged in
the hole drilled in the blade collar.
