Troubleshooting

Blade seems to be cutting slowly or not cutting at all?

Suggestions: Make sure the blade is mounted to spin in the proper

direction (See Spin Direction, pg 6).

The material being cut may have “loaded” or “glazed” the diamond.

Use a dressing stone or “green stone” to free the diamond.

Blade binds or “freezes.”

Suggestions: The blade may be cutting at a slight angle. Check

alignment. Make sure that the saw is rolling freely on the rails and the

rails are not damaged or bent. Make sure that the motor is securely

fastened to the mounting plate.

Saw shuts off after a few minutes of use and/or fails to turn

on at all.

Suggestions: Check circuit breaker. If that is on and it still fails to

start, the motor may have overheated and may need to be replaced.

Also check the brushes in the motor. If these are worn out you can

either order them from us, directly from the motor manufacturer, or pick

them up from your local hardware store.
