THE OPTIONAL LED WORK LIGHT
Models equipped with the optional LED WORK LIGHT have a light
which is always on whenever the machine is plugged in. This can be
useful when working in dark work spaces.
CAUTION: Never attempt to re enter a half-finished cut if the
magnet has been turned off and the machine shifted in the interim. This may destroy the cutter.
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.)
1. Keep the machine clean and free of chips.
2. Check for loose fittings and tighten as needed.
3. Ensure that the ventilation slots are clear so that motor can be cooled normally. Blow low-pressure
compressed air through the ventilation slots with the motor running to keep motor clean.
THE ARBOR SHAFT
Keep the arbor shaft free of dirt and lightly grease as needed. If the mechanism noisy, it may be dirty or have a
chip lodged in it. Clean and
re-grease as needed.
THE CARBON BRUSHES
The carbon brushes are a normal wearing part and must be replaced when they reach their wear limit.
Caution: Always replace the brushes as a pair.
To replace:
1. Remove the 4 screws and remove the motor tail cover.
2. Using pliers rotate the brush spring out of the way and slide the old
carbon brush out of the brush holder.
