Ensure that correct abrasive blade is used on the
intended material.
Diamond blades
WARNING: Never use a diamond blade to
cut plastic material. The heat produced
during cutting may melt the plastic and it can
stick to the cutting blade and cause a
kickback.
WARNING: Diamond blades become very
hot when used. An overheated blade is a
result of improper use, and may cause
deformation of the blade, resulting in
damage and injuries.
Note: Sharpen the blade by cutting soft material such as
sandstone or block.
•
Always use a sharp diamond blade.
•
Diamond blades can become dull when the wrong
feeding pressure is used or when cutting certain
materials such as heavily reinforced concrete.
Working with a dull diamond blade causes
overheating, which can result in the diamond
segments coming loose.
•
Diamond blades consist of a steel core provided with
segments that contain industrial diamonds.
•
Diamond blades are ideal for masonry, concrete and
other composite materials.
•
When using diamond blade make sure that it rotates
in the direction indicated by the arrow on the blade.

Wet cutting
CAUTION: Do not use Vac equipment
together with the wet system.
•
Diamond blades for wet cutting must be used with
the wet system.
•
Water cool the blade and increases its service life
while also decrease the dust.
•
When wet cutting, make sure to collect the waste
water safely.
Dry cutting
•
When dry cutting, lift the blade out from the cut each
30–60 seconds and let it rotate in the air for 10
seconds to let it cool.
•
Use Vac equipment if possible.
Diamond blade - requirements
WARNING: Make sure the diamond
segment (T1) is wider than the blade (T2).
This is to prevent pinching in the cutting slot
and a kickback.
