3. If necessary, correct the tension:
– Turning the adjustment knob (9) counter-clock-
wise increases the sawing band tension.
– Turning the adjustment knob (9) clockwise re-
duces the band tension.
Important note! Excessively high tension leads to pre-
mature breakage!
On completion of work, always relieve tension on the
saw blade! To do this, move lever A to '–'.
8.5.2 Alignment of the sawing band, Fig. 13
If the sawing band is no centred in the middle of the
rubber wheels the track must be corrected by adjusting
the incline of the upper band wheel:
1. Release the lock nut (25).
2. Turn the adjustment knob (10):
– Turn the adjustment knob (10) clockwise if the
sawing band hits the front side of the saw.
– Turn the adjustment knob (10) counter-clock-
wise if the sawing band hits the back side of
the saw.
3. Tighten the lock nut (25).
8.6 Setting the saw blade guide, Fig. 12
You can adjust the top saw blade guide with the help of
the adjustment knob on the saw blade guard (13) from
0-205 mm in terms of workpiece height.
The smallest possible distance to the work piece en-
sures the optimum band guide and a safe working!
8.6.1 Counterpressure bearing, Fig. 15
The counterpressure bearings (26) absorb the feed
pressure of the work piece.
Adjust the upper and lower counterpressure bearings
in such a manner that they slightly strike against the
saw band back.
8.6.2 Guiding rollers, Fig. 15
Adjust the upper and lower guiding rollers (27) to the
corresponding saw band width. The front edges of
the guiding rollers may at maximum extend until the
tooth root surface of the saw band. If the guiding roll-
ers slightly touch the saw band, fix the position of the
rollers with the knurled screw. The saw band must not
choke up!
8.7 Replacement of the table inlay, Fig. 9
The table inlay (14) must be replaced if the slit enlarg-
es or is damaged.
1. Remove the table inlay from the sawing table by
pressing downwards.
2. Insert a new table inlay.
Make sure that the top surface of the table insert is at
the same height as the saw bench.
8.8 On/Off switch, Fig. 1
• To turn the machine on, press the green button „1"
(8). Before starting sawing, wait until the saw blade
has reached its maximum speed.
• To turn the machine off again, press the red but-
ton „0"(8).
• The band saw is equipped with an undervoltage
switch. With a power failure, the band saw must be
switched back on again.
8.9 Speed adjustment, Fig. 1+14+14.1+14.2
Pull the mains plug!
• Open the housing door (1)
• Open the quick-release lever for belt tension (16)
Fig. 14.1 at the back of the machine and slide the
motor (11) to the left. Now gently close the quick-re-
lease lever again. Tension on the drive belt is now
relieved.
• Move belt into the desired position (Fig. 14.2)
• Open the quick-release lever again for belt tension
(16) and press the motor gently to the right to ten-
sion the belt. Close the quick-release lever again.
• Close the housing door (1).
