Saw Blade Change

A
Danger!

when changing blades.

 saw spindle,
 saw blade,

A
Danger!
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. Put on a fresh saw blade (observe
direction of rotation!).
A
Danger!
Use only saw blades meeting the
requirements of EN 847-1 (see "Tech-
nical Specifications") – if unsuitable
or damaged saw blades parts are
used, parts can be ejected due to cen-
trifugal force in an explosive-type
manner. 
Do not use:
 saw blades which permissible
maximum speed is below the
rated no-load speed of the saw
spindle (see "Technical Specifica-
tions");
 saw blades made of high speed
steel (HSS);
61
 Saw blades with visible damage
or deformations;
 cut-off wheel blades.
A
Danger!
 Mount saw blade using only gen-
uine 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 wob-
ble or run out of balance and can-
not work loose during operation.

(oberserve centring on flange).
12. Turn in arbor bolt (59) (left-handed
thread!), and tighten hand-tight

outer blade flange (60).
A
Danger!

ing wrench to get more leverage.
