4.3 BLADE INSTALLATION
This machine uses a 500mm blade with a 50mm arbor.
1.
Set the saw to ninety degrees and disconnect the power. Open the cabinet door and remove the
existing blade.
NOTE: The blade nut is right hand threaded.
2.
Insert the rod provided with the machine into the blade flange (5) and loosen the blade nut (6) with
the wrench provided. The teeth on carbide blades are very sharp and we recommend using gloves
while changing blades. Remove the blade.
3.
Check the blade flange and the blade seat for any chips or nicks before installing the new blade.
4.
Install the new blade and the blade flange and blade nut. Before locking the blade in place, rotate
the blade up against the pin (2) and lock the blade in place. The teeth of the blade rotate away from
the operator when the operator is standing in front of the machine.
CAUTION: Make sure that the blade is installed with the teeth in the right direction for the
rotation and that the saw is wired for the correct rotation. If the saw is not wired for the correct
rotation, the blade will come loose when the saw is powered. If the blade is not installed in the
proper orientation, the teeth will be dulled almost immediately.
5.
Close the access panel and reset the safety switch.
4.4 CUTTING COOLANT
In order to fill the machine with cutting coolant, open the reservoir and fill with Econolube or,
equivalent.
4.5 PNEUMATIC OIL
Both the oil-pneumatic converters and the filter group lubricator must be filled with ISO VG 16
VISCOSITY PNEUMATIC OIL. If none is available, use hydraulic oil 16.
