A. ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Assembly
Once you have unpacked your machine, check to make sure that there are no damaged or
broken parts. If there are, and you need to change these components they must only be replaced
by original of the manufacturer.
It is recommended that the machine only be operated on smooth, level surfaces. Also, verify
that the machine is properly fixed to the floor before beginning to work. This will provide safe
working conditions. (fig. 1, 2)
Safety
Read carefully and understand the safety measures before the use of the machine. Among other
safety measures, DR machines have a safety system that prevents direct contact with the blade
while cutting. (fig. 3, 4)
Hooking up
Check that the voltage and frequency of the machine shown on the characteristics plate match
the electric system. (fig. 5)
Coil feeding cable during transport. Never move the machine by tugging at the cable. Machines
sold without their cables. Please see references for cable on pages 21.
Applications
Use: Models DR are professional precision machines for the straight or mitred cutting of
building materials, and work by means of a guided bearing system. Such cuts are made with
water-cooled diamond blades.
Recommendations concerning the work area
Pay close attention to the state of the area where the job is to be done. Keep it clean and well
lit. The machine should be kept clean at all times in order to ensure optimum performance and
the safest working conditions.
B. STARTING THE MACHINE
Items to be checked before starting the machine
Before using this machine, verify that no parts are worn out, damaged or broken. Should you
find any part that is not in proper condition, have it repaired or replaced immediately. Check
that the stops of the machine are perpendicular to the blade. These are regulated before
leaving the factory. Ensure that the voltage and frequency of the machine shown on the
characteristics plate match the electric system. (fig. 5)
The electrical outlet must have an earth connection and protection in the event of leaking
(differential). When using an extension, check that the cable section is at least 2.5 mm². The
blade protector protects the user from potential injury while cutting. When cutting, the top
will be adjusted according to the thickness of the piece to be cut.
If the disc is mounted incorrectly, proceed to stop the machine and re-assemble.
C. INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
1.
To install or replace the blade, first remove the protective cover to reveal the drive shaft.
Insert the blade between the blade discs, turning in the direction shown on the machine.
Tighten the screw as illustrated. (fig. 6, 7, 8)
2.
It is absolutely necessary to fill the tray with water until the water pump is fully
submerged. Working with clean water gives your blade longer working life and improved
performance. (fig. 9)
3.
Models DR are equipped with a table-stand for placing the ceramic tile, and a sliding
motor unit. This system enables you to handle all types of ceramic tile with maximum
precision and comfort. (fig. 10)
4.
Movement takes place by means of wheels equipped with greased, sealed ball bearings.
(fig.11)
5.
To prevent accidents, shut the motor off when changing from the straight cutting position
to that of mitred cutting (and viceversa), changing cutting height and adjusting stops for
repeated cuts. (fig. 12, 13 and 14)
6.
To prevent accidents, shut the motor off when changing from the straight cutting position
to that of mitred cutting (and viceversa), changing cutting height and adjusting stops for
repeated cuts. (fig. 15)
7.
Models DR have a safety system that protects the motor from overheating.
8.
If the motor should stop for no apparent reason, wait a few minutes as it has probably
been overworked. Moderate the speed in subsequent cutting.
9.
Once the machine is operating, wait until the motor and the water supply by the pump
return to normal (4 or 5 seconds). The flow of water for cooling the blade can be
adjusted using tap.
10.
To make correct cuts, guide the blade firmly and evenly, without brusque movements and
without forcing the motor. One incorrect move can break the workpiece and seriously
damage the blade.
11.
For 45º cuts (mitred cuts), there is a system of mechanical blockage, which enables you
to position the head with great precision. (fig. 16, 23, 24)

The abrasive cutter effect of models DR is brought about by a pivoting of the motive unit
and a system of mechanical blocking. The weight of the motor is balanced by an opposed
spring. (fig. 17, 18)
When the chassis is fixed in place, the moveable stop will be adapted to turn between
-45º, 0º and 45º. This enables you to firmly position the workpieces to be cut, and to
make repeated cuts. (fig. 19, 20, 21 and 22)
For the proper functioning of models DR work on level floor surfaces.
Never use diamond blades that are cracked or chipped.
Never use lateral pressure to stop the blades.
Read these instructions carefully before using this product. Keep them in a safe place
for future reference.
