Lubrication
Mastercraft
®
tools are properly lubricated at the factory and are ready to use.
When necessary, lubricate only those parts that pivot or move with a dry
silicone spray. Lubricating motor bearings and other internal parts should be
done only by qualified service technicians. For more information, call the toll
free helpline at 1-800-689-9928.
General maintenance
Before each use, inspect the blade, the blade guard, switch, power cord, and
extension cord. Check for loose screws, jamming, improper mounting, broken
parts and any other condition that may affect the safe operation of the wet tile
saw. If an unusual operating noise or vibration occurs, turn the wet tile saw
off and immediately correct the problem before using the wet tile saw again.
Cleaning
Empty the water from the water compartment after each use and before
storing the wet tile saw.
Use a dry, clean rag to clean and dry all areas of the wet tile saw. Never use
solvents or other harsh chemicals for cleaning as they are harmful to plastic
and other insulated parts. Petroleum-based products, brake fluid, thinners,
and ammonia detergents are also harmful to the wet tile saw.
