2. Before each use: Inspect the general condition of the Saw. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts, loose, cracked or broken parts,
damaged wiring, 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.
INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
1. WARNING! Always unplug the Saw from its electrical outlet before
performing any inspection, maintenance, or cleaning.
3. Daily: The Saw Blade (10) must be sharp and clean to perform properly.
Depending on materials cut and frequency of tool use, the Saw Blade may
become clogged with metal particles and dull. Dull Saw Blades rub the
workpiece rather than cut, which results in increased friction, higher
temperatures, and a burned workpiece. As often as possible, check the condition
of the Saw Blade and, if necessary, replace a worn Saw Blade with a new, 7-1/4”
diameter, metal cutting Saw Blade rated at 5,800 RPM or above.
(See
To Install A Saw Blade”
section for further information.)
4. DAILY: With a vacuum or compressed air, remove all metal debris from the
metal debris compartment
of the Saw. To do so, lift up and open the Main Lock
Plate (59) to expose the metal debris compartment. Once cleaned, close and
lower the Main Lock Plate. Do not immerse the Saw in liquid. (See Figure J.)
5. Periodically: The Saw features
two
Carbon Brushes (43) which, periodically,
should be examined for wear. The Carbon Brushes are located on each side of
the Motor Housing (41). To inspect or replace the Carbon Brushes, use a small
standard screwdriver to remove the Brush Covers (42). Then, carefully pull out
the Carbon Brushes. Examine the concave surface of the Carbon Brushes.
