CARBON BRUSHES
When the carbon brushes wear out, 
the Mitre Saw will spark and/or stop. 
Discontinue use as soon as this 
happens. They should be replaced prior 
to recommencing use of the Mitre Saw. 
Carbon brushes are a wearing component 
of the Mitre Saw and therefore not covered 
under warranty. Continuing to use the Mitre 
Saw when carbon brushes need to be

replaced may cause permanent damage 
to the tool. Carbon brushes will wear out 
after many uses. When the carbon brushes 
need to be replaced take the Mitre Saw to 
an electrician or a power tool repairer for 
a quick and low cost replacement. Always 
replace both carbon brushes at the same 
time.
NOTE: 

Nova Gear will not be responsible 

for any damage or injuries caused by the 
repair of the Mitre Saw by an unauthorised 
person or by mishandling of the Mitre Saw.

CLEANING
› Keep the ventilation vents of the Mitre 
Saw clean at all times, if possible, prevent 
foreign matter from entering the vents.
› After each use, blow air through the Mitre 
Saw housing to ensure it is free from all 
dust particles which may build up. Build up 
of dust particles may cause the Mitre Saw 
to overheat and fail.
› If the enclosure of the Mitre Saw requires 
cleaning do not use solvents but a moist 
soft cloth only. Never let any liquid get 
inside the Mitre Saw; never immerse any 
part of the Mitre Saw into a liquid.

GENERAL INSPECTION
Regularly check that all the fixing screws 
are tight. They may vibrate loose over time.

CLEARING JAMMED MATERIAL
If your material becomes trapped or 
jammed, follow the procedure below:

1. Turn machine “OFF” by releasing the
trigger switch and allow the blade to come 
to a complete stop.
2. Unplug the machine from the mains 
power supply.
3. Carefully remove any jammed material
from the machine.
4. Check for damage and the condition and 
operation of the blade, blade guard and all 
other parts of the machine.
5. Have any damaged parts replaced by a
competent technician and a safety
inspection carried out before using the
machine again.

accurate.
8. If the cut is not square, repeat steps 1-7 
to set the blade square.
