* Ball-bearing blade guide
* 30° tilting blade side
The new Z 4 Ec and Z 5 Ec portable bandsaws are the innovative successors to the legendary Z 3. Owing to a new, high-output motor and magnesium die-cast components, their persuasive benefits include reduced weight (Z 4 Ec 13.5 kg, Z 5 Ec 13.7 kg), enhanced performance, higher torque and excellent handling.
Exclusive with ball bearing saw band guidance for excellent band running and thus for optimum cutting. Maximum 8 mm saw bands for optimum flexibility when curving and profiling purlins and rafters.
The shorter arm of the Z 4 Ec gives rise to a maximum cutting depth of 225 mm (8 7/8 in.). For thicker work, the otherwise identical Z 5 Ec offers an impressive cutting depth of 305 mm (12 in.).
The precision that typifies MAFELL portable bandsaws enables the Z 4 Ec and Z 5 Ec to execute extremely clean and perfectly square cuts.
The cooling air of the high-performance motor is utilized to blow away dust from the mark. As a consequence, chips are kept well away from your head and you maintain a clear view of the mark at all times.

* The back-toothed blade facilitates retraction from the cut, which is especially easy if the blade is locked by the mechanical brake.
* The unique tilting blade guide allows right-angle cuts to be made up to 90 mm (3 9/16 in.) deep without the opposite side of the blade touching the wood, e.g. when cutting lapped joints.
* With a spring-mounted and tensioned idler wheel, changing blades is an easy and quick procedure.
