A generous flow of coolant should be applied in order to increase production and blade life. The
machine is provided with two independently controlled coolant spouts. One is on the adjustable guide
arm, this one should always flood the blade with coolant. Slight readjustment may be required when
changing the blade speed. A properly adjusted flow of coolant should cover the blade which in turn will
carry it into the cutting area. The flow adjusting tap is shown below. The second is mounted on the fence
for the coolant hose which should be used in cases when cutting solid bars, bundles or wide structurals.
The flow of coolant should be directed into the opening created by the blade.
NOTE: When cutting materials that do not need coolant (cast iron) some coolant flow is required to
provide blade lubrication to prevent blade scoring by carbides.
