WATER PUMP MAINTENANCE
When the machine has not been used for a long period of
time, hard packed dirt may build up inside the pump and
block the pump wheel.
Please follow the steps below to clean the pump before
operating the saw.
1. Remove the immersion pump from the water container.
2. Clean the immersion pump.
3. Loosen the fixing screws of the pump lid.
4. Take the lid off the pump (be careful not to damage or
lose the gasket underneath)
5. Clean the pump lid.
6. Remove all dirt and incrustations from the pump wheel.
7. Check whether the pump wheel can be easily turned.

works properly.
BELT REPLACEMENT
To replace the belt (Figure 18) perform the following.
1. Turn off and unplug the saw.
2. Loosen and remove the 4 bolts located above and
below the belt guard. Remove the belt guard.
3. Loosen the 4 bolts located at the base of the motor.
4. Use a hex wrench to access the socket hex bolt located
at the rear of the cutting head. Turn wrench to move the
motor forward, thus providing some slack in the belt.
5. Take off the old belt and replace with new belt.
6. To reassemble, follow steps 1-4 in reverse order. Make
sure belt is at the proper tension before tightening the
four bolts at the base of the motor.
