PROBLEM
POSSIBLE CAUSE
SOLUTION
- Power cord not properly
fixed/plugged in.
- Power cord defective.
- Main power switch
defective.
- Loose electrical connection inside
the electric system.
- Motor defective.
- Too much pressure exerted while
cutting.
- Incorrect specification for saw
blade.
- Saw has a defective electric system.
- Power cord/extension cable too
long or cable still wound up inside
cable drum.
- Power network is insufficient.
- Drive motor no longer runs at rated
speed (r.p.m.).
- The pump draws air.
- Filter clogged.
- Pump wheel of the immersion
pump blocked by dirt.
- Poor tension in the blade material.
- Saw blade is damaged or bent.
- Flange of the saw blade is
damaged. Shaft of the motor bent.
- Overheating of the saw blade;
cooling water not sufficient.
- Check that the machine is properly
connected to the power supply.
- Have the power cord checked,
replace if necessary.
- Have the main power switch
checked and replace if necessary by
a qualified electrician.
- Have the whole electric system of
the machine checked by a qualified
electrician.
- Have the motor checked and
replaced if necessary by a qualified
technician.
- Exert less pressure when cutting.
- Use a saw blade which corresponds
to the material being cut.
- Have the electric system of the saw
checked by a qualified technician.
- Use a power cord/extension cable
of the rated length, use a cable
drum with cable fully extended.
- Observe the electrical ratings of the
machine and connect it only to a
power network which complies with
these ratings.
- Have the motor checked by a
quilified electrician and have it

- Clean the receiving flange.
- Solder the diamond segments of
the old blade onto another saw
blade or use a new blade.
- Replace the saw blade flange.
- Replace the electric motor.
- Have the diamond segment
soldered on the blade again; ensure
optimum flow of cooling water.
