Cutting Advice
The operator should wear all relevant PPE (Personal
Protection Equipment) necessary for the job at
hand. This could include safety glasses, dust
masks, safety shoes etc.
The operator should always be aware of the position
and routing of the power cable.
• Do not force the machine.
• Allow the speed of the saw blade do the work.
Cutting performance will not be improved by
applying excessive pressure to the machine, and
blade life will be reduced.
• When using the parallel edge guide, ensure that it
is parallel with the blade. The blade and/or motor
could become damaged if the machine is used
with an incorrectly adjusted parallel edge guide.
• To set the guide, loosen the two retaining screws,
and adjust the guide to the required position.
Tighten the locking screws.
• Place front edge of sole plate squarely on the
workpiece before starting the motor.
• When starting a cut, sight the cutting line with
the line of cut guide, taking care to introduce the
blade to the material slowly, so as not to damage
its teeth.
• Use both hands to move the saw forwards rough
the work piece.
• Apply smooth, constant pressure to move the
saw forwards through the workpiece.
When a cut has been completed release the ON/
OFF trigger switch and allow the blade to come to
a complete halt. Do not apply lateral pressure to
the blade disc in an attempt to slow it down more
quickly.
WARNING: If the motor should stop or stall whilst
a cut is being attempted release the trigger switch
immediately and disconnect the machine from
the power supply. Remove the machine from the
workpiece before investigating the cause and
attempting to restart the motor.
Note: This saw is tted with an overload protection
device. This is designed to prevent overloading and
consequent damage to the motor. If this feature
‘trips’, the motor stops and will not operate.
Allow the machine to cool down and then press the
‘reset switch’ at the base of the main handle.
MAINTENANCE
Note: Any maintenance must be carried out with
the machine switched off and disconnected from
the power supply.
Check that all safety features and guards are
operating correctly on a regular basis. Only use
this machine if all guards/safety features are fully
operational.
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.
WARNING: Do not attempt to clean by inserting
pointed objects through openings in the machines
casings etc. The machines air vents should be
cleaned using compressed dry air.
Excessive sparking may indicate the presence of
dirt in the motor or worn out carbon brushes.
Brush Checking and Replacement
To replace the motor brushes:
• Disconnect the machine from the power supply.
• Place the machine on a level, secure surface.
• Remove the (2) motor brush retainer cap screws.
• Withdraw the brushes.
Note: If the Carbon rod is less than 6mm long or if
there are signs of burning or damage, replace the
brushes.
• Fit the new brushes.
• Ret the motor brush retainer caps.
• Run the saw without load for several minutes
after brush replacement to aid the ‘bedding in’
process.
