GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastics are susceptible to damage from various types
of commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease,
etc.
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, penetrating oils, etc., come into
contact with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken or destroy plastic, which may result in serious
personal injury.
When servicing, use only identical replacement parts. Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause
product damage.
LUBRICATION
All of the bearings in this tool are lubricated with a sufficient amount of high-grade lubricant for the life of the
unit under normal operating conditions.
CUTTING DISC
For maximum performance and safety, it is recommended that you use the 7" (17.8 cm) cutting disc provided
with your saw. Additional cutting discs of the same high quality are available at your local dealer.
CHANGING THE CUTTING DISC (Fig. 22-24)
A 7" (17.8 cm) tile cutting disc is the maximum cutting capacity of the saw. Never use a cutting disc that is too
thick to allow flange to engage with the flats on the motor shaft. Larger wheels will come into contact with the
upper protective guard, while thicker wheels will prevent the hex nut from securing the cutting disc on the
motor shaft. Either of these situations could result in a serious accident and can cause serious personal injury.
WARNING!
Do not use cutting discs rated less than the no-load speed of this tool. Failure to heed this warning
could result in personal injury. Do not use cutting discs with cracks, gaps, or teeth.
CAUTION!
•
Product damage! Be sure to observe the rotational direction of the cutting disc when fitting! Be
sure to observe the free-wheeling of the cutting disc when fitting!
•
When fitting, make sure that the cutting disc is placed correctly on the inner flange. The inner
flange can be moved freely on the motor shaft and has a section for holding the internal hole of
the cutting disc. The hole of the outer flange is not round and is used for the interlocking
connection with the motor shaft.
WARNING!
Always ensure that the inner flange is in place before placing cutting disc on motor shaft. Failure
to do so could cause an accident, since the cutting disc will not tighten properly. Never use cutting
discs that have openings, grooves or teeth on this tool.
