MAKING A CUT

• With the Cutting Head in the upper position,
switch on the motor and allow it to reach full
operational speed.
• Gently lower the Cutting Head to the material
and use light pressure at first to prevent
the blade from grabbing. Do not 'force' the
machine. Let the saw blade do the work.
• Cutting performance will not improve by
applying undue pressure on the machine, and
doing so may cause blade and motor life to be
reduced.
• Reduce the pressure as the blade begins to exit
the material.
On completion of a cut release the ON/OFF trigger
switch to turn off the motor.
• Allow the Cutting Head to return to its
upper position.
• Only remove your hands, or the workpiece
from the machine, after the motor has
completely stopped and the stationary blade is
covered by the lower blade guard.
WARNING: These machines must never be used
to cut Asbestos or any material that contains, or is
suspected to contain, Asbestos.
Consult/inform the relevant authorities, and seek
additional guidance if Asbestos contamination
is suspected.
MAINTENANCE & ADJUSTMENTS
NOTE: Any maintenance must be carried out with
the machine switched off and disconnected from
the mains power supply.
• Check on a regular basis that all safety features
and guards etc are operating correctly.
• All motor bearings in this machine are
lubricated for life. No further lubrication is
required.
• Use a clean, slightly damp cloth to clean
the plastic parts of the machine. Do not use
solvents or similar products which could
damage the plastic parts.
• The machines air vents should be cleaned
using compressed dry air only.
CHECKING/REPLACING THE CARBON
BRUSHES
Excessive sparking may indicate the presence of
dirt in the motor or worn out carbon brushes.
Disconnect the machine from the power supply
before attempting to check or replace the Carbon
Brushes.
Replace both carbon brushes if either has less
than 6mm length of carbon remaining, or if the
spring or wire is damaged or burned.
TO REMOVE THE BRUSHES:
• Unscrew the plastic caps found at the back of
the motor. Be careful as the caps are spring-
loaded.
• Withdraw the brushes with their springs.
• If replacement is necessary renew the brushes
and replace the caps.
Used but serviceable brushes can be replaced,
but only as long as they are returned to the same
position, and inserted the same way round, as
they were removed from the machine.
• Run new brushes without load for
approximately 5 minutes. This will help the
bedding-in process.
