Retractable blade guard installation
The retractable blade guard ensures that only so
much of the saw blade is released as is required for
cutting.
A
The retractable blade guard is an efficient
protection against severe personal injury and
must always be installed during operation.
1. Swing sawhead up (into rest position).
2. Loosen left-hand screw (A) approx. five turns.
3. Unscrew right-hand screw (B) fully.
4. Guide blade guard over the bare side of the saw
blade.
5. Turn the saw blade guard mounting plate clock-
wise – the left hand screw (A) must be in the
oblong hole behind the small metal lug.
6. Align the mounting plate so that the right-hand
screw (B) can be screwed in.
7. Tighten both screws (A) and (B).
8. Unscrew guide screw with bushing (C).
9. Swing guide lever down and screw the guide
screw with bushing (C), through the oblong hole
of the guide lever, back in.
10. Check functioning. To do so, swing the sawhead
lock down and lower the sawhead:
- The retractable blade guard must release the
saw blade when the sawhead is swung down,
without touching other parts.
- When lifting the saw head up to its rest posi-
tion the retractable blade guard must auto-
matically cover the saw blade.
