Maintenance And Inspection - Hitachi Koki CM 7MR Instrucciones De Manejo

Never use the diamond wheel to cut zigzag or
curved lines. Never use the side surface of the
diamond wheel. Never use to perform inclination
cutting.
If excessive force is applied to the diamond wheel
to make it align with the cutting line during cutting,
this might not only overload the motor and cause
burn damage but may also overheat the diamond
wheel and shorten the service life.
Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with
clamping devices or in a vice is held more securely
than by hand.
Take care not to allow the power cord to come into
contact with the diamond wheel during operation.
When the work is completed, turn the power off and
disconnect the power plug from the receptacle.

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

1. Inspection the diamond wheel
A worn diamond wheel overloads the motor and
reduces working efficiency. Replace with a new one.
2. Diamond wheel clogging
The rate of wear of the diamond layer cutting edge
will vary depending on the type of material being
cut, the cutting speed, etc. In general, materials
which produce granular cutting particles may scrape
the bodying agent and hasten the wear of the
diamond layer. On the other hand, materials which
produce powdery cutting particles may cause
clogging of the diamond layer which will reduce
cutting efficiency. When clogging occurs, additional
force applied in an attempt to increase cutting speed
will sometime cause sparks to appear around the
circumference of the diamond wheel. In such a case,
stop using the cutter and carefully inspect the cutting
edge by rubbing it with your fingers. If the diamond
layer feels smooth (no roughness or abrasiveness),
it is clogged with dust and must be "dressed".
For thorough dressing, approximately 5 meters of
slightly accelerated cutting at a depth of 10mm in
a relative soft material which produces granular
cutting particles (such as a cement block or brick)
will restore the cutting effectiveness of the diamond
layer and will extend the service life of the diamond
wheel.
The diamond material is susceptible to high
temperatures and will begin to deteriorate at
approximately 600°C. Higher temperatures will cause
decomposition of the diamond material. Accordingly,
it is important to perform "dressing" as soon as
clogging or sparking occurs.
3. Inspecting the mounting screws
Regularly inspect all mounting screws and ensure
that they are properly tightened. Should any of the
screws be loose, retighten them immediately. Failure
to do so could result in serious hazard.
4. Maintenance of the motor
The motor unit winding is the very "heart" of the
power tool.
Exercise due care to ensure the winding does not
become damaged and/or wet with oil or water.
5. Inspecting the carbon brushes (Fig. 9)
The motor employs carbon brushes which are
consumable parts.
When they become worn to or near the "wear
limit", it could result in motor trouble. When an
auto-stop carbon brush is equipped, the motor will
stop automatically.
At that time, replace both carbon brushes with new
ones which have the same carbon brush numbers
shown in the figure. In addition, always keep carbon
brushes clean and ensure that they slide freely within
the brush holders.
6. Replacing carbon brushes
CM7MC (Fig. 10)
<Disassembly>
(1) Loosen the D4 tapping screw retaining the brush
cover and remove the brush cover.
(2) Use the auxiliary hexagonal wrench or small
screwdriver to pull up the edge of the spring that
is holding down the carbon brush. Remove the edge
of the spring toward the outside of the brush holder.
(3) Remove the end of the pig-tail on the carbon brush
from the terminal section of brush holder and then
remove the carbon brush from the brush holder.
<Assembly>
(1) Insert the end of the pig-tail of the carbon brush
in the terminal section of brush holder.
(2) Insert the carbon brush in the brush holder.
(3) Use the auxiliary hexagonal wrench or small
screwdriver to return the edge of the spring to the
head of the carbon brush.
(4) Mount the brush cover and tighten the D4 tapping
screw.
CM7MR • CM7MRU
Disassemble the brush cap with a slotted-head
screwdriver. The carbon brush can then be easily
removed.
