reinstall the blade’s hex bolt turning

Cleaning the Saw
1. With the saw turned off and the cord
pulled out from the outlet, wipe down all
of the external parts of the unit with a
damp (not dripping wet) sponge.
2. Make sure that the Water Tray is also
cleaned and a container of some type is
located below the Drain Plug (E03). Re-
move the plug and drain the water and
silt accumulated by the cutting operation.
3. Use more water to clean out the residual
silt from the water tray.
4. Replace the Drain Plug. Check condition
of the O-Ring (E02) and replace if torn or
cut.
5. The cleaning process is faster and easier
if the unit is tipped on end and carefully
(do not wet the motor) hosed down.
6. Wipe the entire unit down including the
sides and Sliding Bars (C16).
7. Clean out the pump by removing the
Filter (A26), placing the pump into a con-
tainer of clean water, and running it to
pump out any remaining silt. Back ush
the screen Filter (A26) and replace onto
the pump.
