CUTTING TECHNIQUE
•
Holding the machine with both hands to resist the start up torque, press the release button and then
squeeze the trigger switch.
•
Allow the machine to reach full speed before contacting the workpiece.
•
Adjust the water flow as needed by turning the water feed valve.
•
Then gently begin the cut with the rear portion of the blade until the kerf is established.
•
It’s a good idea to pre cut a guiding groove using a conventional circular diamond saw with a wide kerf
blade before proceeding to make the main ccut with the ring saw. This will save wear on the ring saw
blade. Take care to avoid the blade being pinched.
•
In round workpieces, the best technique is to use a slow, uniform back and forth motion while cutting
with the bottom quadrant of the blade.
•
Never side load the blade in the kerf.
STOPPING
Release the trigger to stop the machine. After the trigger is released, the blade will continue spinning for a
short time.
WARNING: Do not set the machine down until the blade has stopped turning.
DAILY MAINTENANCE
Keep the machine clean
Check to ensure that the power supply cable is in good condition.
Ensure all screws are tight.
Check the condition of all safety equipment such as the blade guard
Check the blade for damage.
CARBON BRUSHES
The carbon brushes are a normal wearing part and must be replaced when they reach their wear limit. This
machine is equipped with auto-stop carbon brushes. If the machine comes to a stop unexpectedly, the brushes
should be checked. The auto-stop brush design protects the motor by stopping the machine before the carbon
brushes are completely worn out.
Caution: Always replace the brushes as a pair.
TO REPLACE
1.
Remove the screw and remove the brush cover.
