ADANGER

Make sure the machine is unplugged before you do any servicing, mainte- nance, repair or troubleshooting.

Any repair and maintenance work not described in this section must be performed only by trained and factory authorized personnel.

All defective or worn parts, espe- cially all defective safety devices, must only be replaced with OEM parts! Non-OEM parts and/or parts not specifically approved by the manufacturer may lead to unfore- seen damage and possibly result in personal injuries.

Check that all safety devices are operational again after each serv- ice.

9.1Changing the Saw Blade

AWARNING

Cutting creates friction, which in turn generates heat. Right after cut- ting, the saw blade may be very hot. Be extremely careful. Burning haz- ard!

Wear protective gloves when chang- ing the saw blade, whether the saw blade is hot or not. Let a hot saw blade cool down. Do not clean a hot saw blade with combustible liquids.

Even after coming to a complete standstill, the saw blade is danger- ous and a potential source of seri- ous injury.

Never handle the saw blade without protective gloves. When loosening or tightening the arbor bolt the retractable blade guard must be pushed back and the flange guard swung up in order to expose the saw blade. It is NOT necessary to remove the retractable blade guard!

1.Loosen screw (57) and swing flange guard (58) up.
