Vacuum Port
Some saw models have a vacuum port in the cover.
You can attach a 2” shop vac hose to this port. The saw
“on-off” switch is a double pole switch that you can direct
wire the shop vac to. This will allow the operator to start
the saw and the vacuum at the same time. A shop vac
attached to the vacuum port will remove most of the
dust, smoke and smell portant to check the vacuum filter
regularly as it will plug up with the fine rubber dust that is
associated with hose cutting.
Maintenance
Examine the blade periodically (blade cover in place) for tooth
condition and sharpness. A sharp blade cuts the best but as the
teeth wear they will still cut well.
Occasionally pull the blade cover off and perform a closer
inspection of the blade paying attention to any cracks that
may have occurred. If cracks are observed, the blade should be
thrown away as it could break while spinning. Cracks are very
rare as these blades are high quality steel and are tempered
to the correct hardness for this application. With the cover off,
clean the hose dust that has accumulated inside.
Lubricate the pivot points of the blade guard and pusher with
oil on a regular basis (once a month). Whenever the blade cover
is removed, use that opportunity to grease the pivot points.
Check the condition of the wiring as it may wear over time,
especially the DC saws that flex the wiring from the handle
mounted switch. The motors require little maintenance (wipe or
blow the accumulated dirt off ) as the bearings are sealed.
Keep the area around the saw uncluttered. The DC van saws
have high amp connectors with rubber boot protectors. If
those protectors wear over time and grounded metal comes in
contact, it will spark and be a fire hazard!
Speaking of grounding. For proper performance from the DC
saws, always have a good, clean ground connection.
