Frequently Asked Questions - 456932 SILVERLINE

What air pressure should I use for the Silverline 456932 pneumatic saw?

The maximum working pressure is 6.3 bar. Never exceed this pressure. Use a compressor with a regulator to adjust the pressure as needed.

How to install a blade on the saw?

Disconnect the air supply. Loosen the screw on the clamping device cover (8), then the clamping screws (7). Insert the blade (6) with teeth facing the cover, tighten the screws, close the cover and check the fixing by pulling firmly.

What oil to use for lubrication?

Use pneumatic tool oil only. Never use motor oil. Pour a tablespoon of oil into the air inlet daily or install an in-line lubricator.

How to adjust cutting speed?

Speed is adjusted by varying air pressure (without exceeding 6.3 bar) and via the variable speed trigger (10). Press gently to start, then increase trigger pressure for more speed.

What to do if the tool runs slowly or seems seized?

Check air pressure (adjust to 6.3 bar). If it persists, pour oil into the air inlet. For a blockage, operate in short bursts. If rusted, tap lightly with a rubber mallet or rotate manually.

How to clean and maintain the pneumatic saw?

Disconnect the air supply. Clean with a soft brush or dry cloth. For daily maintenance, lubricate with pneumatic oil. Install a filter/water separator to prevent corrosion.

Where to find spare parts for the Silverline 456932?

Spare blades (pack of 5, ref. 633549) and other parts are available from your Silverline dealer or at www.toolsparesonline.com.
