OPERATION
General Operating Instructions
1. Check Coolant: Low coolant level causes foaming and high blade temperatures. Dirty or
weak coolant can clog pump, causes crooked cuts, low cutting rate and permanent blade
failure. Dirty coolant causes the growth of bacteria with ensuing skin irritation.
2. Keep vise slides clean and oiled.
3. Clean chips from blade wheels and wheels housing.
4. Saw Guide: Keep saw guides properly adjusted. Loose guides will affect cutting accuracy.
5. Saw Blade: Make sure the saw blade is sharp.
6. Blade Speed: Make sure the blade speed sets correctly for workpiece material and shaped.
7. Check Blade Tension: Particularly after initial cuts with a new blade.
