4.5.1 Adjusting the slip clutch
The slip clutch in the star knob must be adjusted when:
- The distance "X" does not change by at least 4 mm [0.16 in] and no more than 6 mm [0.24 in], or
- the saw band is not in contact with either the upper or the lower band contact block and the slotted bolts
with a gap <1 mm [0.04 in].
Use the following procedure to adjust the slip
clutch:
1. Turn the star knob (9) counter-clockwise to
release the band tension.
2. Note down the distance "X" between the base
plate and any edge on the lower swiveling
band guide.
3. Turn the star knob (9) clockwise to tension the
saw band.
➢ The slip clutch in the star knob (9) must
be readjusted if that distance is reduced
by less than 4 mm [0.16 in] or more than
6 mm [0.24 in].
4. Turn the star knob (9) counterclockwise to
release the band tension.
To adjust the slip clutch, the star knob must be relieved.
5. Hold the star knob (9) with one hand and
readjust the slip clutch (17) with an 6-mm
Allen key.
Turning counterclockwise reduces the
➢
band tension, turning clockwise
increases the band tension.
6. Tighten the star knob (9).
The slip clutch is adjusted correctly when
➢
the distance "X" changes between 4 and
6 mm [0.16 - 0.24 in] when the saw band
is tensioned.
