Technical data

Noise emission values

The measurements were made in accordance to the norms EN ISO 3744, EN ISO 11201 and EN 12418. Therefore it was used a standard saw blade Type W3 0700 mm (not a silent blade).

Parameter	Value
continuous sound pressure level at work LoA	91 dB (A)
Sound power level LwA	92 dB (A)
Sound power level at the ear of user	106 dB (A)

Vibration at the grab handle

When cutting the oscillation total value is under 2,5 m/s2.

Assembly and initial preparation for operation

Assembly tools

Combination wrench size 13/46

Set up and assembly

Remove the packing

Installation of the saw blade (or checking the installation)

Loose the clamp handle (item 7).
Lift up the saw head and tighten the clamping lever (item 7).
Remove the side protecting sheet metal.
Remove the flange nut (left-hand thread) and thrust washer.

ATTENTION! When installing the saw blade, observe the following:

All receptacle surfaces must be clean.
Rotation direction arrow on the saw blade must match the one on the hood.

Cutting quality of the saw blade

lf the saw blade looses its sharpness after langer use, you can “sharpen” it by making some cuts in sand-lime bricks or similar material.

Cooling water

Very dirty water reduces the life of the pump and saw blade.

By frequent use replace the water daily and remove the saw sludge.
Also clean the pump’s suction strainer with each water change.

Height adjustment

The saw blade height adjustment is needed for:

cutting through blocks with height over 270 mm in the reversing tool. Performing the height adjustment.
