Maintenance WARNING. Always ensure that the tool is switched off and the plug is removed from the power point before making and adjustments or maintenance procedures. When you have finished cutting your tiles, always disconnect the power, empty the water and fully clean and dry the machine. Installing a blade DANGER. • Never try to use a blade larger than the stated capacity of the saw. It will come into contact with the blade guard. • Never use a blade that is too thick to allow the outer blade washer to engage with the flats on the spindle. It will prevent the blade screw from properly securing the blade on the spindle. 1. Adjustments are only to be made with the power off, the tool disconnected from the mains supply and when the blade has fully stopped. 2. Using a screw driver remove the three screws that hold the metal plate over the water tank. 3. Remove the blade cover (3). 4. Take the 2 spanners and use the flat spanner to locate into the holes in the flange and keep the blade still, and use the socket spanner over the nut and turn anti clockwise. 5. Remove the nut, outer blade flange and blade. 6. Wipe a drop of oil onto the inner blade flange and the outer blade flange where they contact the blade. 7. Fit the new blade onto the spindle taking care that the inner blade flange sits behind the blade. CAUTION. Always install the blade with the arrow printed on the side of the blade pointing down. The direction of blade rotation is also marked on the blade guard and blade cover. 8. Replace the outer blade flange followed by the blade nut. 9. Use the blade spanner to securely tighten the blade bolt. (Tighten in a clockwise direction). 10. Replace the blade cover and secure it with the blade cover locking knobs. CAUTION. Before using the saw after replacing the blade, check that all the safety devices are fitted correctly including the blade guard and that they are all in good working order. Run the saw without loading it to ensure the blade runs true and there are no extraneous noises. Cleaning 1. Keep the tool’s air vents unclogged and clean at all times. 2. Remove dust and dirt regularly. Cleaning is best done with a soft brush or a rag. 3. Re-lubricate all moving parts at regular intervals. 4. Never use caustic agents to clean plastic parts. CAUTION. Do not use cleaning agents to clean the plastic parts of the saw. A mild detergent on a damp cloth is recommended. General inspection Regularly check that all the fixing screws are tight. They may vibrate loose over time. Repairs Only an authorised service centre should replace the cordset. If the cordset is damaged or worn, have it repaired or replaced by an authorised service centre. Power cord and RCD maintenance IMPORTANT. Ensure the RCD is tested upon every use. It is essential that the safety switch is tested to ensure it is functioning correctly. We strongly recommend that a test of the RCD is conducted without fail before each use. Refer to Testing your safety switch. If the power cord or RCD needs replacing, the task must be carried out by the manufacturer, the manufacturer’s agent, or a qualified electrical repairer in order to avoid a safety hazard.
