Fit the blade
On the Dimas WS 400-series the blade is fitted in an
entirely new way. The new mounting permits, in addition
to the tradition way of securing the blade, the possibility to
secure the blade radially both quickly and easily:
1. Start by removing any dirt from the contact surfaces on
the blade flange and blade.
2. Check the blade's direction of rotation. The blade
should rotate anticlockwise seen from the saw side
and the released part of the diamond should lie in the
blade's direction of rotation.
3. Screw together the thrust washer, blade and blade
flange hub.
4. Hang the blade with the blade flange and blade flange
hub fitted on the cutting arm (blade is not shown in the
figure).
5. Carefully turn the blade until the hub locks onto the
cutting arm.

6. Press in the blade spindle into the cutting arm at the
same time as the blade is rotated carefully. When the
blade spindle can no longer be pressed in by hand it
should be tightened using the supplied 18-spanner
until it is properly secured (tightening torque 30-
40 Nm).
WARNING!
Exercise care when assembling the blade
so that it does not risk becoming loose
when cutting.
