7 MAINTENANCE OF THE MACHINE
Note! Always stop the machine before servicing.
7.1 Crosscut saw-blade
7.1.1 Removing the crosscut saw-blade (Figures 23 and 24)
1. Loosen the side plate of the sawdust trough A (a 17 mm spanner).
2. Remove the side plate of the saw-blade cover (13 mm spanner) and the blade
cover (17 mm spanner).
3. Put pin A into hole B indicated by the arrow (Figure 24) to prevent the saw-
blade from rotating and twist open the saw-blade nut (right-handed thread, 36
mm spanner). The thread on the nut is M 24 x 2.
4. Carefully clean the surfaces of the flanges before re-installation of the blade.
5. Before installing the blade, make sure that the pin, which prevents the saw-
blade from rotating, is in place.

7.1.2 Sharpening the chain
The hard-metal blade can be sharpened "lightly" using a diamond file.
Depending on the cleanliness of the wood, as many as 5001000 bulk cubic metres
of wood can be processed with a hard-metal saw-blade without resharpening.
The best sharpening result and durability of the blade is achieved when the saw-
blade is sharpened using an appropriate grinding machine and a diamond file.
7.1.3 Stressing the saw-blade
Stressing-faults do not usually occur in hard-metal blades, but if the blade is very
blunt such faults are possible. Always take such a blade to a professional saw-
blade service.
