SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

7. Locking nut

• Protect your hand from

injury when assembling,
use the blade guard as
protection when tightening
with a socket spanner.
Tighten the nut by turning
against the direction of
rotation. Loosen the nut by
turning in the direction of
rotation. (NOTE! the nut
has a left-hand thread).

• Tighten the nut using a

socket spanner, 35 - 50
Nm (3.5 - 5 kpm).

NOTE!
The locking nut‘s nylon lock must not be so worn that it can
be turned by hand. The lock shall hold at least 1.5 Nm. The
nut should be replaced after it has been put on approx. 10
times.

WARNING!
Never use a machine with defective
safety equipment. The safety equipment
should be maintained as described in this
section. If your machine does not meet
any of these controls you should contact
your service workshop.

6. Cutting equipment

This section describes how through correct maintenance and
through using the right type of cutting equipment you can:
• Reduce the machine‘s tendency to kickback
• Obtain maximum cutting capacity.
• Increase the service life of the cutting equipment.

The three basic rules:

1)Only use the cutting

and guard equipment
we recommend! See
chapter “Technical
data“.

2)Keep the blade‘s teeth

well and correctly
sharpened! Follow our
instructions and use the
recommended filing
gauge. An incorrectly
sharpened or damaged
blade increases the risk
of an accident.

3)Check the cutting

equipment with regard
to damage and crack
formation. Damaged
cutting equipment
should always be
replaced.
