Inspection, maintenance and cleaning
1. WARNING
!
Always
make
sure
the
Switch
is
in
its
“OFF”
position,
and
unplug
the
Cord
from
its
230
volt
electrical outlet before performing any inspection, adjustments, maintenance, or cleaning.
2.
Before each use, inspect the general condition of the Cut-Off Saw. Check for loose screws, misalignment or
binding of moving parts, cracked or broken parts, damaged electrical wiring, loose, cracked, or bent Grind
Wheel, and any other condition that may affect its safe operation. If abnormal noise or vibration occurs, have
the problem corrected before further use. Do not use damaged equipment.
3.
Daily: With a soft brush, cloth, or vacuum, remove all dust and debris from the Cut-Off Saw. Then, use a
premium quality, lightweight machine oil to lubricate all moving parts, except the Grind Wheel itself.
4.
To replace the Motor Carbon Brushes: It may become necessary at sometime to replace the two Carbon
Brushes when the Motor performance decreases, or stops working completely. The Carbon Brushes are
located on each side of the Housing. To do so, use a standard screwdriver (not included) to remove the two
Brush holder Caps. Then, remove the two Carbon Brushes from the Brush holders. If the Carbon Brushes are
worn down more than 1/2 of the original size, replace both Carbon Brushes. If however, the Carbon Brushes
are just dirty they may be cleaned by rubbing them with a pencil eraser. When installing the Carbon Brushes,
make sure the carbon portion of the Carbon Brushes contact the Motor Armature, and that the springs face
away from the Motor. Also, make sure the springs operate freely. After cleaning or replacement, replace the
Carbon Brush Caps with a screwdriver and tighten firmly.
NOTE: New Carbon Brushes tend to arc or spark when first used until
They wear and conform to the Motor's Armature. ( See Figure J )
