Drive belt replacement
1. Remove the three bolts securing the Drive Belt Cover (12) and remove the cover (Image I)
2. Replace the old drive belt, ensuring the teeth sit within the grooves on the pulley
3. Refit the Drive Belt Cover and three securing bolts
Blade replacement
WARNING: ALWAYS wear cut-proof gloves when handling the blades.
WARNING: Only use blades that are specifically designed for the machine.
1. Move the Guide Fence (23) away from the Blade Drum (3) area to give sufficient clearance
for blade removal
2. Use the Multi-Wrench (20) to loosen the four blade bolts securing the blade assembly
approximately half a turn clockwise
Note: The blade securing bolts need to be turned clockwise to loosen their grip on the blade.
3. Carefully remove the worn blade from the Blade Drum, and clean the blade slot of any debris
4. Insert the new blade, ensuring the tallest edge is facing the Infeed Table (4)
Setting the blades
It is essential that the blades are set correctly or the workpiece will end up rough and uneven. For
a clean, smooth cut, the blades must be mounted so that the cutting edge is absolutely level, i.e.
parallel to the table surface.
This is done using the Blade Alignment Tool (21).
To align the blade:
1. With the blade installed in the Blade Drum (3) place the Blade Alignment Tool in position and
press the blade so that it is flush with the Outfeed Table (2)
2. While holding the Blade Alignment Tool in position with one hand, tighten the blade in position
by turning the blade screws anti-clockwise using the Multi-Spanner (20) (Image J)
3. Rotate the Blade Drum by hand to check it turns clear of any obstructions
4. Repeat if necessary
Nicks in surface
The cutting edge of one or all blades is not parallel to the rear base.
Gouging at start
One or all blades are not protruding enough in relation to the rear base.

Cleaning
• Keep your tool clean at all times. Dirt and dust will cause internal parts to wear quickly, and
shorten the machine's service life. Clean the body of your machine with a soft brush, or dry cloth.
If available, use clean, dry, compressed air to blow through the ventilation holes
• Clean the tool casing with a soft damp cloth using a mild detergent. Do not use alcohol, petrol
or strong cleaning agents
• Never use caustic agents to clean plastic parts
Lubrication
• Slightly lubricate all moving parts at regular intervals with a suitable spray lubricant
Brushes
• Over time the carbon brushes inside the motor may become worn
• Excessively worn brushes may cause loss of power, intermittent failure, or visible sparking
• If you suspect that the brushes may be worn, have them replaced at an authorised Silverline
service centre
Storage
• When storing, always cover the Blade Drum (3) using the Blade Cover (25)
• Store this tool carefully in a secure, dry place out of the reach of children
