Metabo BKH 400 Saw User Manual


 
7.3 Installation of the blade guard in case of a saw blade diameter of 400 mm
If a 400 mm saw blade is used, the chip hood has to be
fixed one drilling level deeper on the chip case.
7.6 Setting of the ripping fence
The desired width of the cut is adjusted through sliding
the ripping fence. It can be read directly off scale.
Clamping is done by pushing down the eccentric clamp
lever.
7.5 Vertical adjustment of the saw blade
The height of the saw blade must never be adjusted
when the saw blade is still moving. The adjustment
handle must be turned to the left for about 30° . The
cutting height needed is now adjustable through sliding
the handle up and down. After releasing, the handle
clamping takes place through a built-in spring. The
desired cutting height can be read off the arc scale.
7.4 Changing the saw blade
- Disconnect from power before changing blade!
- Swing the locking switch to the side and remove the lid
of the chip thousing.
- Loosen and unscrew the locking screw with the
included tools.
Remove the lock flange and lift the saw blade from the
flange.
- Important !
Left-hand thread. Turn clockwise to loosen.
- Before fitting the new saw blade, clean the clamping
faces of the flange, and grease the thread slightly.
- When fitting the new saw blade, make sure the saw
teeth are showing in the correct direction. The locking
screw of the saw blade flange must be tightened
carefully and the lid of the chip case must be fixed on
its box and bolted.
Operation without the lid of the chip case poses
great danger of injury !
