E. SPECIFIC OPERATION GUIDE
1. Ensure that the directional
arrow
marked
on the blade corresponds with the rotational
direction of the motor.
2. With
the saw disconnected from the
power
supply, rotate the blade
by
hand
to ensure it is free
from obstruction.
3. Always keep
the blade-securing arbor and collars clean.
4. Ensure
that the blade-securing bolt is securely tightened.
5.
Never
try to cut freehand. Always ensure that the tile to
be
cut is
pressed
firmly
against the rip fence.
6. Ensu re that the workpiece that will
be cut off
has
sufficient room to move sideways. Failure
to do so may
result
in
the off-cut binding against the blade.
7. Never
cut more than one tile at a time.
8. Never cut
pieces
too small that
are
not held
securely against the rip fence, and
provide
enough space
for
the
hand
to be a safe distance
from
the blade.
9. Ensure that the table and surrounding
area are clear
with
the exception of the tile to be cut.
10. Before cutting a tile
piece,
let
the saw blade
run
freely for a few seconds. lf it makes
an unfamiliar sound or
vibrates excessively, switch it
off
immediately
and disconnect it from the
power
supply.
11. Let
the blade
reach full
speed before commencing the cut.
12. Let the blade come to a
complete stop before removing any
jammed
material from
around the
blade area.
13. Never
allow the blade to run dry. Failure to keep
the
water
tray at the
recommended
level will result in
possible
over-heating of the diamond
blade.
