Service and maintenance
Regular cleaning of the machine, above all
the adjustment devices and the guides, is an
important safety factor.
Observe the following instructions:
X
Use an extractor on all openings of the power
tool to remove chips and splinters.
X
The pendulum guard must always be able to
move freely and close independently. Always
keep the area around the pendulum guard
clean. Clear from dust and chippings by blowing
out with compressed air or using a brush.
X
Clean the adjustable grooving cutter and the
groove unit regularly. Resin from light alloys
must only be removed using thinners that do not
affect the mechanical properties of the material
(pH value 4.5 - 8).
Blunt tools
Always use original indexable inserts.
X
Remove the indexable inserts from the ad-
justable grooving cutter by undoing the screw.
X
Clean all parts of the adjustable grooving cutter
