GENERAL RULES
•
Always clean the machine before maintenance/repair.
•
Before cleaning/maintenance/repair, the machine
must be switched off with the main power key.
STEPS TO FOLLOW WHEN CLEANING
a.
Please do not use aggressive cleaners (i.e. containing
solvents). Do not use high-pressure water jets,
aggressive detergents or solutions and liquids with a
temperature exceeding 86°F Use a fluff-free cloth
only.
b.
Use a cloth which may be lightly moistened only for
removing dust and dirt. Hard packed dirt can be
removed with a soft brush.
c.
For the sake of safety, no water/cleaning liquid/vapor
may penetrate into the electric motor, connectors
/plugs, switches, etc. Therefore cover all apertures,
holes in the housing, connectors or plugs, etc. or
seal them with adhesive tape.
d.
Use a soft, low-pressure water jet and a brush to
rinse dirt and incrustations away. Be particularly
careful when near hazardous parts of the machine
(e.g. switch, motor). Clean the motor and switches
only by wiping with a moist cloth.
e.
Do not "rinse" the bearings of the drive elements to
prevent them from running dry. The ball bearings of
the machine are permanently lubricated.
f.
After cleaning, remove all covers and adhesive tape
All screws/nuts which you may have loosened must
be tightened again.
g.
After wet cleaning, try the machine on a power outlet
which is equipped with a power breaker (i.e. fault
current circuit breaker). If the fault current circuit
breaker cuts the power supply, the machine must be
inspected by an authorized dealer prior to use.
CLEANING
AFTER EVERY USE OF THE MACHINE:
•
Remove dirty water from container.
•
Remove dirt and mud from the bottom of the
container.
•
Rinse the immersion pump with fresh water to
prevent water pump clogging from residual dirt.
AFTER WET CLEANING AND BEFORE
USING THE MACHINE AGAIN:
•
Connect the machine to an electric power outlet
equipped with a "GFCI” safety power breaker. If the
safety power breaker cuts off the electrical power
supply, do not try to operate the machine but have it
checked by an authorized dealer first.

•
Check that the roller table is in its guides and that it
easily moves to and fro.
•
With the saw blade removed, switch on the motor for
an instant and switch it off again. If the motor does
not run, have the machine inspected by a qualified
electrician.
•
Check that the immersion pump works properly. Turn
on the cooling water tap and switch the machine on.
If the pump does not give any water or only a little,
switch the machine off at once. Clean the pump, or
replace if necessary.
For your safety before
performing any maintenance on the saw, turn off
the power switch and unplug the power cord.
