BLADES
General
The iQTS244 dry cutting tile saw utilizes a specially
designed diamond blade with a Q-Drive Arbor hole.
The 10” Q-Drive dry cutting blade uses a proprietary
composition of diamond concentration, metal type,
and flange thickness to make a blade that cuts
cool while reducing vibration and movement. The
specially designed blade works in conjunction with
the vacuum flow to keep the blade and the material
cool while cutting.
The iQTS244 10” Dry Cutting blades with Q-Drive
Arbor hole can be purchased from your local
iQ Power Tools dealer or directly from iQ Power
Tools by calling 888-274-7744 or through our
website at www.iQpowertools.com
The Q-Drive Arbor hole with the included bushing
also fits a standard 5/8 round blade shaft for
versatility.
The Q-Drive Arbor hole shape without bushing also
fits a standard 1” round blade shaft for versatility.
BLADES CAN BREAK AND
CAUSE
SERIOUS
INJURIES
TO THE USER. DIAMOND BLADES CAN BECOME VERY
HOT WHEN NOT USED PROPERLY. AN OVERHEATED BLADE
MAY CAUSE DEFORMATION OF THE BLADE, RESULTING IN
DAMAGE AND INJURIES.

BLADE VIBRATIONS
• The blade can become out of round and
vibrate if a too high feed pressure is used.
• A lower feed pressure can stop the vibration.
Otherwise replace the blade.
SHARPENING DIAMOND BLADES
• Always use a sharp diamond blade.
• Diamond blades can become dull when
the wrong feeding pressure is used or
when cutting certain materials such as
very hard material. Working with a dull
diamond blade causes overheating, which
can result in the diamond segments
coming loose.
• Sharpen the blade by using a dressing
stone or by cutting in a soft material such
as sandstone or soft brick.
TRANSPORT AND STORAGE
• Remove the blade before transportation or
storage of the machine.
• Store the blade in a dry place.
• Inspect new blades for transport or
storage damage.
NEVER USE A BLADE FOR ANY
OTHER MATERIALS THAN THAT IT
WAS INTENDED FOR. CUTTING PLASTICS WITH A DIAMOND
BLADE CAN CAUSE KICKBACK WHEN THE MATERIAL
MELTS DUE TO THE HEAT PRODUCED WHEN CUTTING AND
STICKING TO THE BLADE. NEVER CUT PLASTIC MATERIALS
WITH A DIAMOND BLADE!
