no longer touches the Bandsaw blade (26) (dis-
tance max. 0.5 mm).

ing (45).
8.8.2 Adjusting the bottom support bearing (52)
(Fig. 9)
• Disassemble the saw table as per 8.1 in the oppo-
site direction.
• Undo Allen screw for bottom support bearing (51).
• Move bottom support bearing (52) sufficiently far
that it just no longer touches the Bandsaw blade
(26) (distance max. 0.5 mm).
• Retighten Allen screw for bottom support bearing
(51).
8.8.3 Adjusting the top guide pins (47) (Fig. 7+8)
• Undo Allen screws for top retainer (50)
• Move top retainer (49), top guide pins (47), until the
front edge of the guide pins (47) is approx. 1 mm
behind the tooth base of the saw band.
• Retighten Allen screws for top retainer (50).
m ATTENTION! The saw band will be unusable if the
teeth touch the guide pins with the saw band running.
• Undo Allen screws for top guide pins (48).
• Slide the guide pins (47) in the direction of the saw
band!
m ATTENTION! The distance between the guide
pins (47) and Bandsaw blade (26) must not exceed
0.5 mm. (Saw band must not jam)
• Retighten Allen screws (48).
• Turn the top saw band roller (2) a few times in a
clockwise direction.
• Check the setting of the top guide pins (47) again
and adjust if necessary.
• If necessary, adjust the top support bearing (46)
(8.8.1).
8.8.4 Adjusting the bottom guide pins (56) (Fig. 9+10)
• Disassemble saw table (7)
• Undo screw for bottom retainer (53) (Allen key, size
5)
• Move bottom retainer (57), bottom guide pins (56),
until the front edge of the bottom guide pins (56) is
approx. 1 mm behind the tooth base of the saw band.
• Retighten screw for bottom retainer (53).

m ATTENTION! The saw band will be unusable if the
teeth touch the guide pins with the saw band running.
• Undo Allen screws for bottom guide pins (55).
• Slide the two bottom guide pins (56) sufficiently far
in the direction of the saw band that the distance
between the guide pins (56) and Bandsaw blade
(26) is max. 0.5 mm. (Saw band must not jam)
• Retighten Allen screws for bottom guide pins (55).
• Turn the bottom saw band roller (9) a few times in a
clockwise direction.
• Check the setting of the bottom guide pins (56)
again and adjust if necessary.
• If necessary, adjust the bottom support bearing
(52) (8.8.2).
8.9 Adjusting the top saw band guide (5) (Fig. 11)
• Undo locking handle for saw band guide (28).
• Turn the adjustment handle for the saw band guide
(27) to lower the saw band guide (5) as closely as
possible (distance approx. 2-3 mm) over the mate-
rial to be cut.
• Retighten locking handle (28).
• Check the setting before every cutting process and
adjust if necessary.
8.10 Adjusting the saw table (7) to 90° (Fig.
2+12+13)
• Set the top saw blade guide (5) fully upwards. (8.9)
• Undo locking handle (22) and wing nut (21) (Fig. 2).
• Place the angle bracket between the Bandsaw
blade (26) and saw table (7). Angle bracket not in-
cluded in the scope of supply.
• Tilt the saw table (7) by turning, until the angle to
the Bandsaw blade (26) is precisely 90°. If the saw
table is already on the screw (58) and a 90° angle
cannot be set, undo the nut (59) and shorten the
screw (58) by turning in a clockwise direction.
• Retighten the locking handle (22) and wing nut (21).
• Also undo the nut (59).
• Adjust the screw (58) sufficiently that the saw table
touches the underside.
• Retighten the nut (58) to fix the screw (59) in position.
8.11 Which saw band to use
The saw band supplied in the band saw is intended
for universal use. The following criteria should be
considered when selecting the saw band:
• It is possible to cut tighter radii with a narrow saw
band than with a wide saw band.
• A wide saw band is used if a straight cut is required.
This is important in particular when cutting wood.
The saw band has a tendency to follow the wood
grain and therefore deviates easily from the desired
cutting line.
• Fine-toothed saw bands cut more smoothly, but
also more slowly than coarse saw bands.
m ATTENTION! Never use bent or torn saw bands!
8.12 Push Stick retainer (Fig. 14)
The Push Stick retainer (60) is pre-mounted on the
machine frame. If unused, the Push stick (29) must
always be stowed in the Push Stick retainer.
8.13 Replacing the table insert (Fig. 15)
In case of wear or damage, the table insert (6) must
be replaced; otherwise there is an increased risk of
injury.
