OPERATION
1.
Adjust the depth of cut.
2.
Draw a cutting line before beginning cutting so
it is easy to make straight cuts.
3.
Place the machine in position on the workpiece.
4.
While the blades are not yet in contact with the
workpiece, press the lock button squeeze the
trigger and allow the machine to reach full
speed.
5.
Holding firmly with both hands, slowly advance
the machine until it makes contact with the
workpiece. Begin moving forward along the
line of cut Take care that the base remains firmly
on the workpiece.
CAUTION: Take care not to cut in a curved
line. This will likely shatter the diamond
blades causing a severe hazard.
6.
When the cut is finished, allow the coasting
blade to come to a full stop before setting
down.
NOTE: Only operate the machine
for wards relative to itself and never
backwards. If you cut backwards there is the
d a n g e r t h a t t h e m a c h i n e m i g h t b e
accelerated out of the cutting groove (recoil)
and cause serious injury.
CAUTION: Keep the cord away from cutting area
to prevent it from becoming entangled in the
workpiece.
Do not force the cut. Let the saw do the cutting at
the rate of speed permitted by the type of cut and
workpiece.

BLADES
If a lot of sparks are seen while cutting, this is a sign
that the blade is becoming dull. To create better
diamond exposure (sharpen), make several cuts in
a special sharpening stone for diamond blades or
alternately use calcareous sandstone.
MAINTENANCE
Every 50 hours of operation blow compressed
air through the motor while running at no load
to clean out accumulated dust. (If operating in
especially dusty conditions, perform this operation
more often.)
KEEP TOOL CLEAN
Periodically blow out all air passages with dry
compressed air. All plastic parts should be cleaned
with a soft damp cloth. NEVER use solvents to
clean plastic parts. They could possibly dissolve or
otherwise damage the material. Wear safety
glasses while using compressed air.
THE CARBON BRUSHES
The carbon brushes are a normal wearing part and
must be replaced when they reach their wear limit.
