not tend to throw it from the vice. Clamp it securely. Angles should be in
an inverted position so that the point of the section is uppermost. The
saw cuts most efficiently if the blade is cutting the thinnest section of the
material (fig. 4).
Maintenance And Troubleshooting
Keep tool and cord clean. Regularly vacuum or blow out the motor unit to
keep its ventilation clear, also check that the machine is well lubricated.
Inspect weekly. Avoid using cleaning products, which include benzene,
trichloroethelene, chloride, and ammonia as these can damage plastic
parts. In case of electrical or mechanical malfunction, immediately switch
off the tool and disconnect the plug.
Brush Inspection And Replacement
Excessive sparking may indicate the presence of dirt in the motor or
worn out carbon brushes. Check for wear after the first 50 hours of use
and then at 10 hours use intervals. Replace when they reach 6mm. The
brush holders are located on the motor housing opposite each other
and unscrew to allow access to the brushes. For all other service and
maintenance, take the machine to an authorised service centre after
typically 60 cutting hours, dependent upon the type of workload it has
endured.
Lubrication
Your machines motor bearings are lubricated at the factory with sufficient
lubricant to last for the lifetime of the unit under normal operating
conditions. Other movable parts can be lubricated with light machine
oil as necessary. It is recommended that the machine be taken to the
nearest SERVICE CENTER or Evolution Power Tools USA, Iowa, if in
the USA, at least once a year for a thorough cleaning and lubrication. All
repairs and servicing made by these centres are fully guaranteed against
defective materials and workmanship.
