BLADE
Ensure that the blade is always sharp. This produc-
es the best cutting results.
SHARPENING
For safety reasons, the blade should not be sharp-
ened on an emery wheel. Incorrect sharpening (=
too high temperature) could cause the blade to be-
come brittle.
Sharpening of the blades must be done by wet
method grinding, using a whetstone or a grind-
stone.
Once the blade has been sharpened, it
must then be balanced to avoid vibra-
tion damage.
REPLACING THE BLADE
When replacing the blade, blade holder and blade
screw – always use genuine spare parts.
Always use original spare parts. Non-
genuine spare parts can entail a risk of
injury, even if they fit the machine.
When replacing the blade, the centre bolt should
also be replaced. This is equipped with a lock.
