4.14 AFTER USE

 

 

After use all machining residues or other humid or dusty 

materials must be cleaned from the machine. Keep the 

machine clean and in good condition. It will continue to 

give better results. 

 

 

WARNING! 

After use always make sure that the electric power 

supply has been disconnected. 

 

4.15 SHUTDOWN

 

 

If the machine is to be shut sown for a prolonged 

period of time the parts subject to wear must be 

lubricated and the machine covered with a plastic 

sheet and stored in a sheltered, dry place. If these 

instructions are observed when work with the saw is 

resumed the machine will be in perfect working order.

MAINTENANCE 

 

5.1 MAINTENANCE

 

 

WARNING! 

It is essential for all maintenance operations to be 

performed with the motor off and the machine 

unplugged from the power supply. 

 

Apart from the oil change in gear-motor, the machine does 

not require any particular maintenance operations. It is 

however important to remember the following: 

 

·

  Clean the machine and the work area regularly. 

·

 Use saw blades with teeth that are suitable for the 

materials to be cut; this ensures optimum cutting 

results. Your saw blade supplier can provide you with 

helpful advice. 

·

  Replace the saw blade when it is worn, in order to avoid 

vibrations and inaccurate cuts. 

·

 Clean the coolant tank when necessary, or at least, 

twice a year, through the special opening on the tank 

itself. 

·

  Check the cooling pump regularly. 

·

 Ensure that the safety guard completely covers the 

blade. 

 

WARNING! 

FOR ANY PROBLEMS OTHER THAN THOSE 

DESCRIBED ABOVE CONTACT THE 

MANUFACTURER IMMEDIATELY. 

 

 

5.2 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM 

 

The saw is equipped with a 24 Volt low voltage electrical 

system.
