13. Environmental Protection

Observe national regulations on environmentally
compatible disposal and on the recycling of
disused machines, packaging and accessories.
Only for EU countries: never dispose of
power tools in your household waste! Used
power tools must be collected separately
and handed in for environmentally compatible
recycling in accordance with European Directive
2002/96/EC on waste electrical and electronic
equipment and its implementation in national
legal systems.

14. Troubleshooting Guide

Following you will find a description of problems
and faults that you may remedy yourself. If the
corrective measures described here do not help,
kindly refer to chapter 12. "Repairs".
Danger!
There are particularly many accidents in
connection with problems and faults. Therefore
keep in mind:
 Disconnect the mains plug prior to any fault
service.
 Check to see that all safety devices are
operational after each fault service.
Motor does not run
Undervoltage relay tripped by power failure:
– switch on again.
No mains voltage
– Check cables, plug, outlet and mains fuse.
Motor overheated, e.g. by a blunt band saw blade
or chip build-up in the housing:
– remove cause for overheating, let cool down
for a few minutes, then start again.
Motor and band saw blade turn in the wrong
direction
Connection sequence of the phases is reversed
(only possible with saw with 400 V connection):
– Have connection checked by a qualified
electrician.
Band saw blade wanders off the line of cut or
runs off the band saw wheels
Band saw blade is not running dead centre on the
band saw wheels:
– correct tracking (see "Care and
Maintenance").
Band saw blade breaks
Incorrect tension:
– correct band saw blade tension (see "Initial
Operation").
Load too high:
– reduce pressure against band saw blade
(reduced feed rate).
Incorrect band saw blade:
– replace band saw blade (see "Care and
Maintenance"):
thin work piece = narrow band saw blade,
thick work piece = wide band saw blade.
Band saw blade warped
Load too high:
– avoid lateral pressure on the band saw blade.
Saw vibrates
Insufficient mounting:
– Fasten saw properly to a suitable surface (see
"Initial operation").
Saw table loose:
– align and fasten saw table.
Motor mount loose:
– check fastening screws, tighten if necessary.
Dust extraction port blocked
No dust collector connected or suction capacity
insufficient:
– Connection extraction unit or increase
extraction power (air speed >= 20 m/sec at the
chip extraction nozzles).
16
Band saw blade is still while the motor turns
Belt tension too low:
– Increase belt tension using the setting knob
(40).

Emission values
These values make it possible to assess the
emissions from the power tool and to compare
different power tools. The actual load may be
higher or lower depending on the operating
conditions, the condition of the power tool or the
accessories. Please allow for breaks and periods
for assessment purposes when the load is lower.
Arrange protective measures for the user, such as
organisational measures based on the adjusted
estimates.
