Instruction for adjusting
the MICRO-Bandsaw for
working with the
diamond sawband
NO 28186
The ball-bearing guide of band saw
must be checked for defective bear-
ings and, if applicable, adjusted new.
Proceed as follows:
1. The below bearing of the blade guide
1 (Fig. 1) must stand in the most front
position (see mark “3” at blade guide)
for using the diamond blade. There-
fore please loosen screw A with the
Allen key and push the square 2 fully
ahead (trailing edge of the square
cuts the “3” mark on the blade guide).
For adjusting also read the In -
struction Manual. Afterwards tighten
screw A.
2. As the rear angle wears out after
lengthy use, both above bearings
must be adjusted in that way, that the
diamond coated front of the band fits
between the bearings. You can ad-
just the bearing clearance with an
Allen key at screw 4 (Fig. 1). Please
attend: A too tightly adjusted bearing
clearance can cause seizing and
thus breaking of the band.
3. Mount the diamond band and adjust
carefully the tension of the band, so
that it will be taken along by the
drive roll, but does not get over-
stretched.
4. Before starting to saw adjust the
guide component right above the
work piece. Therefore loosen toggle
screw (Fig. 2), push the guide com-
ponent into designated position and
then jam the toggle screw
5. While sawing assure a sensitive
feed! The smallest possible sawing
radius is 30mm (Fig. 3).
6. After working, relax the diamond saw
blade to prevent deformation of the
band or the pulley.
