STANDARD USE AND DESCRIPTION

THE BRIDGE SAW IS MADE UP OF THE FOLLOWING PARTS (Fig. 2)
1. Sliding motor unit (can be set at an angle for 45° cutting)
2. Motor
3. Continuous rim wet diamond blade
4. Sliding unit supports
5. Metal tray
6. Legs with rear wheels
• The QEP 83012 is a Professional Bridge Saw fitted with a 10"
continuous rim wet diamond blade for cutting ceramic tiles, an
electric water pump for cooling the diamond blade, and sliding
motor unit.
• Flipping the switch to the "I" position turns on the machine.
• The material to be cut must be placed on the cutting table.
• The cutting of the material is carried out by slowly pulling the
motor and setting blade down onto the material to be cut.
• The QEP 83012 is engineered for professional operators and is
designed for linear, diagonal and 45° cutting for ceramic tiles,
marble, granite, porcelain, and other masonry materials. The
diamond blade supplied with the machine is only advised for
use with ceramic tiles. It is essential to use specific blades for all
the other materials listed above.
NOTE: PORCELAIN TILES REQUIRE A PORCELAIN CERTIFIED BLADE WHICH IS ALSO AVAILABLE FROM Q.E.P.

LIST OF CONTROLS

• The QEP 83012 is fitted with an auto magnetic thermal overload
switch to protect against power surges. The switch (fig. 3) is off in
position "O", while it is on in position "I". In the event of a power
failure, the switch goes automatically to the "O" position. When the
power returns, the bridge saw will not start without warning. It will
only start if the switch is put in the "I"position.
• The switch also protects the motor. If the diamond blade gets jammed during operation, the switch will
automatically cut power, switch to the "O" position to prevent the motor from burning.
• The bridge saw is also fitted with a thermal protection device which, on reaching 266°F (130°C), will stop the
motor, preventing overheating. After this device has been activated it will be necessary to wait until the motor
cools down. The bridge saw will not actually start up again until it has reached the optimal temperature.
ALL MAINTENANCE WORK MUST BE CARRIED OUT WITH THE BRIDGE SAW DISCONNECTED FROM THE
POWER SUPPLY.
• Only authorized personnel may have access to the operating controls.
• It is the operator's responsibility to make sure that all the protective guards are in position and all the safety
devices are present.
• This bridge saw must be properly grounded. The risk of electric shock and bodily injury are greatly
increased if it is not, particularly when used in damp locations or in proximity to plumbing.
