Cleaning
Remove dust and dirt regularly from the machine. Cleaning is best
carried out with a fine brush or a cloth.
Remove any metal and debris that may have accumulated around the
upper blade guard and retractable blade guard.
Clean debris from saw recess in bass.
Clean chips from spark shield.
Never use caustic agents to clean plastic parts.
Keep the tool’s air vents unclogged and free of dust and dirt. Blow out
the motor regularly with compressed air.
General inspection
Before use, check for cracked or broken parts, damaged electrical
wiring and any other condition that may effect safe operation. Do not
use damaged equipment.
Regularly check that all the fixing screws are tight. They may vibrate
loose over time.
Carbon brushes
When the carbon brush wears out,
the cold cut saw will spark and/or
stop. Discontinue use as soon as
this happens. It should be replaced
prior to recommencing use of the
cold cut saw. Carbon brushes
are a wearing component of the
saw therefore not covered under
warranty. Continuing to use the
cold cut saw when carbon brushes need to be replaced may cause
permanent damage to the saw. Carbon brushes will wear out after
many uses. When the carbon brush needs to be replaced, take the
saw to an electrician or a power tool repairer for a quick and low cost
replacement.
Note:
Ozito Industries will not be responsible for any damage or
injuries caused by the repair of the saw by an unauthorised person or
by mishandling of the saw.
