Care And Maintenance; Replacing The Saw Blade - Proxxon 28650 Manual De Instrucciones

Warning:
Please make sure that the saw blade is in a
perfect condition and is not worn or dama-
ged. Worn or damaged saw blades can
break or place a great load on the mecha-
nics while working. Risks of injuries or
technical defects are the consequences.
How to replace the saw blade is described
in these instructions under "Care and main-
tenance".
Hold the device as shown in Fig. 2 and set it
down carefully on the work piece to be se-
parated. Please note that the maximum dip-
ping depth of the saw blade is 4 mm, so
that only 4 mm-thick work pieces can be
separated.
Adjust the feed speed to the requirements
of the work piece material and the cutting
thickness. To ensure long-lasting and reli-
able operation, handle the device with care
and do not overload it!

7 Care and maintenance:

The device is primarily maintenance free.
For a long service life, you should clean
your unit after every use with a soft cloth or
brush.
The external surface of the housing can be
cleaned using a soft, possibly moist cloth.
Mild soap or other suitable cleansers may
be used as well. Do not use solvents or al-
cohol-based cleansers (e.g. benzene,
cleaning alcohols, etc) as these could attack
the plastic housing casings. In any event,
make absolutely certain that no liquids pe-
netrate the interior of the device.

7.1 Replacing the saw blade

Warning:
For the following steps it is imperative you
disconnect the mains plug of the device!
Attention:
Worn or damaged saw blades must be re-
placed. Risk of breakage and injuries! De-
creasing saw performance is a sure
indicator of a dull saw blade. Dull saw bla-
des must be replaced immediately as des-
cribed further below. We recommend the
original Proxxon replacement saw blades.
1. Carefully press the lock button 1
Please note:
Check screw 2 has a left-hand thread!
2. Using a suitable screwdriver, release and
unscrew the check screw 2. Attention:
The saw blade shaft might rotate along
until the lock button "finds" its correct
position on the shaft. This is noticeable
when the lock button engages comple-
tely at that point. The shaft is then blok-
ked.
3. Remove the saw blade 3. If necessary,
fold up the saw blade protection 4 a little
more.
4. Insert the new saw blade. Please note:
The saw blade is non directional, so the
assembly position is arbitrary.
5. Replace screw 2 and tighten.
