MAINTENANCE OF THE MACHINE
NOTE !
Always stop the machine before servicing.
9.1
Removal and change of the crosscut blade, Fig 17 and 18
1. Remove the attachment screws of the cover net, a 13 mm wrench.
2. Swing the large cover net open.
3. Insert pin A, Fig. 17, into the hole in the V-belt pulley to prevent the blade from
rotating and twist off the blade nut, right-hand thread, a 36 mm wrench. The thread
on the nut is M 24 x 2.
4. Carefully clean the surfaces of the flanges before re-installation of the blade.
5. Before installing the blade, make sure that the pin, which prevents the saw-blade
from rotating, is in place.
6. Remove pin A after changing the blade and place it in the holder.
9.2
Tightening the V-belts, centre shaft/blade shaft, Fig. 18
1. Retighten the V-belts the first time after 4-8 hours of operation.
2. Check the belts for tightness at regular intervals.
3. The tightness is correct when the belt on the underside sags by 10-15 mm when
pressed down by a force of about 2-3 kg.
