- Every day it is necessary to verify the general
state of the machine, keeping it constantly
cleaned.
- Worn out or broken parts must be immediately
be replaced.
- For whatever doubt you have on the electrical
system, verify it with the electrical schematic
and/or call the specialized operators.
5.1.1 Saw Belts
The movement of the blades coming from the motors
is made by the saw belts (1 Fig. 11). It is necessary
from time to time to check the wear and tear of the belts
and their tension.
WARNING
This operation has to be made by specialized
operators only.
In order to verify this:
- Disconnect the electrical & pneumatic power;
- Remove the machine’s front panel (11 Pic. 1).
The correct tension of the belts is acquired by
pushing the belt with sufficient pressure , as indicated
by the arrow (4 Pic. 11). They should flex about 1cm.
If worn, it is necessary to replace them as follows:
BELT REPLACEMENT
1) Disconnect the machine from the electrical and
pneumatic power supplies.
2) Remove the front panel (11 Pic. 1).
