MAINTENANCE
When carrying out servicing or maintenance tasks...ALWAYS disconnect the machine from
the mains supply.
Clean external parts of the machine with a damp soft cloth, DO NOT use harmful abrasives
or chemicals as this could damage the machine and invalidate your warranty
The bearings etc are all sealed and packed with lubricant which should last the lifetime of
the machine.
Periodically inspect for wear, the runners on the underside of the aluminium extrusion (Item
6 in parts list) which the head bearings run, clean the runners and reapply a thin film of
general purpose grease to the runners.
Always rotate the cutting disk by hand before use to check for cracks or distortion. If any
damage is detected, renew the disk. NEVER use a cracked/damaged cutting disc.
Remember - the disk securing nut carries a LEFT HAND THREAD. Turn clockwise to undo.
Check the power cable to ensure it is in perfect condition, any defects should be rectified
before using the cutter again.
Drain the water tank after use and ensure it is dry before storing. To clean the water tank
thoroughly, it will be necessary to remove the tank completely (refer to the installation
instructions to do this).
Clean the pump by running it under cold water to remove any sediment etc. Separate the
filter from the body by carefully turning the filter housing half a turn and gently pulling apart,
taking care not to let the Impeller etc fall out.
ALWAYS maintain the machine in top condition. When not in use, keep it covered, and
store in a dry place, not exposed to the elements.
DO NOT force the head. Maintain the maximum disc speed at all times, allow the
tool to do the work.
Always cut in a straight line and DO NOT attempt to cut a curved line.
Keep hands well clear of the disk whilst it is in motion. Remove all pieces using a
scrap piece of wood, or similar, before making the next cut.
5. To stop the machine at any time, press the red button on the switch panel marked ‘O’.
NEVER attempt to slow the machine quickly by putting excess pressure on the disk.
Always do this as soon as cutting has been completed, and before making any
adjustments to the machine. NEVER attempt to make adjustments, however small,
whilst the disc is running, ALWAYS wait for it to come to a complete stop first.
NOTE: In order to get the feel of the machine and reduce the possibility of wastage, we
recommend that trial cuts are made first with surplus or scrap material of a similar type to
that to be cut.
