MAINTENANCE
WARNING!
Always ensure the Mitre Saw is switched off and the plug is
removed before performing any adjustments or maintenance procedures.
Power Cable Maintenance
If the power cable (39) needs replacing, the task must be carried out by an
electrician or a power tool repairer in order to avoid a safety hazard.
Changing the Blade
CAUTION!
Never try to use a blade that is larger than the stated capacity of
the Mitre Saw. It might come into contact with the blade guards and risk
personal injury or damage to the Mitre Saw. This will not be covered under
warranty.
CAUTION!
Never use a blade that is too thick to allow the outer blade washer
to engage with the flats on the spindle. It will prevent the blade screw from
properly securing the blade onto the spindle.
CAUTION!
Ensure that any spacers and spindle rings that may be required suit
the spindle and blade that are fitted.
1. Ensure the plug is disconnected from the mains power supply.
2. Ensure the cutting head (3) is raised and the head
locking pin (4) is released.
3. Manually lift the retractable safety guard (11) until the
round cut-out in the retractable safety guard (11)
lines up with the bolt head in the centre of the blade
(13) (Fig. 34).
