11. MAINTENANCE.
The circular saw has been designed and built for cutting wood type material panels, boards and pieces that do not
exceed the thickness that allows the cutting of the disc. Any change in any of its parts or elements as well as improper
use of it, is deemed inappropriate and dangerous.
This machine only requires a basic and simple maintenance.
Clean the machine as often as necessary.
Every day, at the end of the workday, review the status of the disc and discard it if anomalies are discovering (cracks,
missing teeth, sprains ...)
It is recommended that every time you put up the machine check the effectiveness of engine braking. Must be stop
within limit of ten seconds. Starting and stopping several times successively letting up for one minute. Following this
method we can check daily the braking effectiveness.
In case of anomalies observed in the machine, disconnect it from the main supply and have it checked by a
technician.
Any repair of the equipment must be performed by qualified personnel.
11.1 CLEANING THE GROOVED LID.
When woody debris getting caught between the blade and the slot of the plastic cap is necessary to remove them.
To do so follow these recommendations
1 Stop the machine and disconnect from main supply.
2 Loosen the screw that secures the plastic cover with key and freeing remove loose material.
3 Clean the area with a brush, lifting previously top disc protection.
WARNING: Although the disc is stopped, this should be done with protective gloves to prevent contact
injuries of the hands with the sharp teeth of the cutting disc.
