Before performing any maintenance, ALWAYS
place the machine on a level surface with the
motor OFF and disconnect the electrical current.
Let the machine cool down!!
Your TARGET® tile saw is a ruggedly constructed machine,
engineered to give long, satisfactory performance. Simple
daily maintenance and care will add to the life and
productivity of your saw. After each days use: CLEAN THE
MACHINE!!
* Turn off and unplug the saw before performing any
maintenance.
* Keep the cart top clean and free for cuttings. To
clean it, flush the top surface and grooves with
water.
* Drain, clean and refill the pan frequently. Flush the
coolant system with plenty of water, then drain and
refill the pan.
* If the water flow stops, check the water pump to
see if the shaft and impeller turn freely. See the
WATER PUMP TROUBLE-SHOOTING
PROCEDURE section.
* It is always good practice to clean your tile saw
after each days use. Drain the water and clean
out the pan. Clean the rails. Before storing, it is
good practice to wipe or spray rails with water-
soluble oil (like, WD-40 or equivalent).
Entrust all repairs to your authorized dealer only.
Locate the material for profiling:
1. Set the edge of the part to be shaped parallel to
the wheel.
2. Locate the material under the wheel. Pull the
Conveyor Cart (4) with the material from under the
wheel to set proper cutting height.
3. Loosen the Locking Knob (C) and lower the Cut-
ting Head (1) so that the wheel just slightly makes
contact with the material.
4. Secure the Cutting Head (1) into position with the
Locking Knob (C) for cutting.
5. Note: Profiling usually takes several light passes
to produce the best results. Set lower each time
until the desire depth has been reached.
10 MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
11 WATER PUMP TROUBLE-SHOOTING PROCEDURE
Back flushing is done by forcing water into the pump discharge
and out through the screen. Most of the time this procedure
works, and the pump can be put back into service. (See
Figure below)
If the back flushing does not work, remove the screen and
turn the impeller manually, looking for and rinsing out the im-
peller cavity of any dirt or foreign matter.
If Water Stops Flowing,
1. Stop Sawing, then
2. Disconnect Electrical Plug from Outlet, then
3. Remove the Pump, then
4. Back Flush.
For quick supply of spare parts and to avoid any lost time, it is
essential to quote the data on the manufacturers plate fixed to
the machine and the part number(s) and description to be
replaced with every order.
