■
Do not remove jammed cutoff pieces until the blade has
stopped.
■
Never touch blade or other moving parts during use.
■
Before changing the setup and removing covers, guards
or blades, unplug the product from the power source.
■
Hold the workpiece firmly against the saw table.
■
To avoid accidental blade contact, minimise blade
breakage, and provide maximum blade support, always
adjust the blade guide assembly to just clear the workpiece.
■
Keep blades clean, sharp, and with sufficient set. Sharp
blades minimise stalling and kickbacks.
■
Always turn off saw before disconnecting it to avoid
accidental starting when reconnecting to a power source.
■
Make sure the work area has ample lighting to see the
work and that no obstructions will interfere with safe
operation before performing any work using the product.
■
The blade guides have been preset at the factory.
These settings are functional for some applications.
We recommend that you check and adjust blade guide
settings before first use of the product. Refer to adjusting
the thrust bearing, blade guide and blade guide support
procedures explained in this operator's manual.
■
Do not use the product to cut metal.
■
If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced
only by the manufacturer or by an authorised service
centre to avoid risk.
■
Do not use saw bands which are damaged or deformed.
■
Replace the table insert when worn.
■
Connect the product to a dust collecting device when
sawing wood.
■
Do not operate the product when the guard protecting
the saw band is open.
■
Select the saw band and the speed depending on the
material to be cut.
■
Do not clean the saw band whilst it is in motion.
■
Wear gloves when handling the saw band and rough material.
■
Use a push stick when straight cutting small work pieces
using the fence.
■
Transport the product with the band guard fully down
and close to the table.
■
Place the fence on the lower side of the table when
bevel-cutting with the table inclined.
■
Use a suitable holding device when cutting round or
irregular shaped timber to prevent twisting of the work
piece.
■
Do not use guards for handling or transportation.
■
Adjust the adjustable guard as close to the work piece
as practicable.
■
Use extra supports (tables, saw horses, blocks, etc.)
when cutting large, small, or awkward workpieces.
■
Even when the product is used as prescribed it is not
possible to eliminate all residual risk factors. The
following hazards may arise and the operator should pay
special attention to avoid them:
●
Damage to lungs if an effective dust mask is not
worn.
●
Damage to hearing if effective hearing protection is
not worn.
●
Damages to health resulting from vibration emission
if the product is used over longer periods of time, and
is not adequately managed or properly maintained.

OPERATION
WARNING! Before performing any adjustment, make
sure the product is unplugged from the power source and
the switch is in the off position. Failure to heed this warning
could result in serious personal injury.
ADJUSTING THE BLADE TENSION
See page 136.
1. Disconnect the product from the power outlet.
2. Loosen the upper front cover lock knob. Open the upper
front cover.
3. Insert the flat end of the blade tension adjustment
wrench in the frame that houses the spring behind the
upper wheel.
4. Rotate the blade tension adjustment lever. The correct
blade tension is set when the frame is in contact with
both edges of the flat end of the wrench.
5. Close the upper front cover. Tighten the upper front
cover lock knob.
Sound becomes higher pitched as tension increases. Never
increase blade tension so tight as to completely compress
the spring. When completely compressed, the spring can no
longer act as a shock absorber.
Too much tension may cause the blade to break. Thicker
workpieces require higher tension; maximum tension is not
needed for all cuts. Too little tension may cause the blade
to slip on the wheels.
