ASSEMBLY
1
Slide the coolant reservoir onto the
supports located on the back of
the saw, just above the tension unit. Fill
with clean water, then put the coolant
reservoir cover back in place.
2
Install the blade drip guide by
placing it against the upper back
of the frame, with the blade passing
through the slot in the holder front.
Secure in place using two of the included
10-24 x ¾" nylon thumb screws. The guide
is adjusted by loosening the screws and
sliding the guide up or down as needed.
3
Control the water flow with the water
control valve that is installed onto
the drain tube.
If you’re fragging corals,
corrosion brought on by salt is the #1 threat to your
band saw. Use clean RO/DI water in the saw for coolant. Use clean fresh water on
your saw for clean up. The amount of water present and the amount of time that
it makes contact with the coral will not harm the animal. In fact, casual evidence
suggests that fresh water may even be an advantage as it will help osmotically
to destroy bacteria and other microorganisms.
Installing the coolant
reservoir and blade drip
guide
The coolant reservoir and blade drip
guide must be installed when using a
diamond saw blade to supply coolant to
the blade. Using coolant with a diamond
blade is required to maintain the
cutting ability and life of the blade. We
recommend using clean water. See Fig. G
for final setup.
