CMT ORANGE TOOLS 230.312.08 DADO Set Saw Blade Instruction Manual

1. הקדמה און פּראָדוקט איבערview

This manual provides detailed instructions for the safe and effective use of your CMT ORANGE TOOLS 230.312.08 DADO Set Saw Blade. This innovative dado set is designed for precision cuts in various materials, including solid wood, laminates, melamines, and veneer plywood.

A key feature of this product is its UNI EN847 COMPLIANCE, making it the first dado set to achieve this standard. This compliance ensures that during rotation, the assembled elements will not come into contact with each other, enhancing safety and performance. This is achieved through a unique blade body design and special 'lock spacers'.

Proper assembly of the dado set is crucial for safe operation and optimal performance. Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including safety glasses and gloves, during assembly and operation.

3.1 Understanding the Components

3.2 Blade and Shim Interaction (Setting 1)

The unique design of the dado set, combined with the provided shims and lock spacers, ensures that the blades do not contact each other during rotation. This is critical for safety and compliance with UNI EN847 standards. Figure 3.3 illustrates how the shims are used to achieve the desired dado width while maintaining proper blade separation.

3.3 Assembly with Lock Spacers (Setting 2)

Begin assembly by placing the first outside blade onto your saw arbor. Ensure the "THIS SIDE OUT" marking faces outwards. Next, add the appropriate chippers and lock spacers to achieve your desired dado width. The lock spacers (Figure 3.4, labeled 'Lock Spacer') are essential for maintaining the UNI EN847 compliance by ensuring separation between the blades and chippers. The 'Lock Keys' (Figure 3.4, labeled 'Lock Keys') fit into corresponding slots to secure the assembly.

3.4 Fine-Tuning with Shims (Setting 3)

For micro-thin adjustability of the dado width, utilize the included plastic and magnetic shims. These shims are placed between the chippers and blades to achieve precise cut dimensions. Figure 3.5 provides a visual guide on how these shims integrate into the assembly to fine-tune the cutting width.

3.5 Complete Assembly Overview (סעטטינג 4)

Figure 3.6 provides a comprehensive exploded view of the entire dado set assembly, showing the correct order of components. From left to right, you will typically assemble: Outside Blade (A-B), Chipper(s) (C), Lock Spacer(s) (D), and then any necessary micro-thin adjustment shims (E, F, G-H) before the final outside blade. Always ensure all components are seated correctly and securely before tightening the arbor nut.

4. אַפּערייטינג ינסטרוקטיאָנס

Always consult your saw's instruction manual for specific safety guidelines and operating procedures before using any dado blade. Ensure the dado set is securely mounted on the arbor and the arbor nut is tightened to the manufacturer's specifications.

• זיכערקייַט ערשטער: Always wear eye protection, hearing protection, and appropriate clothing. Ensure guards are in place and functional.
• מאַטעריאַל קאַמפּאַטאַבילאַטי: This dado set is suitable for solid wood, laminates, melamines, and veneer plywood.
• טעסט קאַץ: Always perform test cuts on scrap material to verify the dado width and depth before cutting your final workpiece. Adjust shims as needed for precise fit.
• פיטער ראטע: Maintain a consistent and appropriate feed rate. Do not force the material through the blade, as this can lead to poor cut quality and increased risk of kickback.
• שטויב זאַמלונג: Utilize an effective dust collection system to maintain a clear workspace and reduce airborne dust.
• UNI EN847 Compliance: The unique design of this dado set ensures that the assembled elements do not come into contact during rotation, providing an enhanced level of safety.

5. וישאַלט

Regular maintenance will extend the life of your CMT dado set and ensure continued optimal performance.

• רייניקונג: After each use, clean the blades and chippers to remove resin and sawdust buildup. The ORANGE SHIELD COATING helps protect against heat, gumming, and corrosion, making cleaning easier. Use a specialized blade cleaner.
• דורכקוק: Regularly inspect the carbide teeth for chips, cracks, or excessive wear. Check the blade body for any signs of damage or warping.
• שאַרפּנינג: When the blades become dull, have them professionally sharpened by a qualified service that specializes in carbide-tipped saw blades.
• סטאָרידזש: Store the dado set in its original packaging or a protective case in a dry environment to prevent corrosion and damage to the teeth.
