Accessories
CAUTION: Use only accessories or attachments recommended for use with your
Terratek tool specified in this manual. The use of any other accessories or attachments
might present a risk of injury to persons. Only use accessory or attachment for its
stated purpose.
General Maintenance
1. Keep the air vents free from obstruction and clean regularly
2. Check regularly for any dust particles entering the grills around the motor and the
trigger switch. Use a soft brush to remove any dust particles. Wear safety glasses to
protect your eyes whilst cleaning.
3. Regularly wipe any saw dust from the fence. A build-up of dust on the fence can
prevent accurate cutting.
4. Monitor the dust bag and empty when approximately half full. Always empty into an
appropriate container. REMEMBER: dust can be hot and cause fire.
5. If the blade has become dirty, use a blade cleaner (not included) to clean it. Dirty
blades will bind more easily, and will more often overheat and burn the wood as it
cuts. Overheated blades dull more easily.
6. If the Blade has become dull, replace it. Dull blades will cause increased tear-out
and ragged edges on the cuts.
7. Lubricate all moving parts at regular intervals
8. To clean the body of the power tool, only use a soft damp cloth. Do NOT immerse in
water. A mild detergent can be used but NOT petrol or any alcohol based product.
9. After extensive use of this power tool the grease in the gearbox will require replacing
10. Should the power cord become damaged only allow a fully qualified electrician to
replace or repair
