only with suitable cutting-off wheels. Saw blades
should never be used. Compliance with the sa-
fety instructions, the assembly instructions, and
advice and instructions on operation contained
in the operating instructions also falls under the
terms of intended use. All persons who use and
service the equipment have to be acquainted
with this manual and must be informed about the
machine's potential hazards. In addition, strict
compliance with the accident prevention regula-
tions in force in your area, as well as all other ge-
neral rules of health and safety at work, is impera-
tive. The manufacturer's liability shall be deemed
void if the machine is modifi ed in any way and the
manufacturer shall therefore accept no liability for
any damages arising as a result of modifi cations.
Even when the equipment is used as prescribed
it is still impossible to eliminate certain residual
risk factors. The following hazards may arise in
connection with the machine's construction and
design:
•
Contact with the diamond cutting wheel whe-
re it is not covered.
•
Contact with the diamond cutting wheel while
it is turning.
•
Defective diamond tips flying off the cutting
wheel.
•
Kick-back of workpieces and parts of workpi-
eces due to improper handling.
•
Damage to hearing if ear-muffs are not used
as necessary.
Please note that our equipment has not been de-
signed for use in commercial, trade or industrial
applications. Our warranty will be voided if the
machine is used in commercial, trade or industrial
businesses or for equivalent purposes.

6. Before starting the equipment

•
The machine has to be set up where it can
stand firmly, e.g. on a work bench, or it must
be bolted to a strong base.
•
All covers and safety devices have to be pro-
perly fitted before the machine is switched on.
•
It must be possible for the diamond wheel to
run freely.
•
Before you actuate the ON/OFF switch, make
sure that the diamond wheel is correctly fit-
ted and that the machine's moving parts run
smoothly.
•
Before you connect the machine to the power
supply, make sure the data on the rating plate

GB
is the same as that for your mains.
•
Before using the machine, check all of the
parts for damage and replace any parts that
are damaged. When replacing any parts or
accessories, always carefully follow the inst-
ructions in this manual.
•
For optimum performance and maximum sa-
fety, keep the machine clean at all times.
•
Check the machine cable at regular intervals.
•
While the machine is running, check the wea-
ring parts and the fastenings of parts which
may have become loose and check that all
accessories are correctly fitted.
•
Notice! The tile cutting machine is desig-
ned for use with water.
•
Check that the water level is high enough to
cover the diamond part of the wheel each
time before you start a cutting operation and
keep checking it during cutting as well. Fill/
refill the cooling water directly into the trough.
6.1 Assembly
Assemble the equipment as shown in Figures
2-12.
6.1.1 Fitting the diamond cutting wheel
(Fig. 4, 5)
To fi t the wheel, proceed as follows:
•
Remove the side cover (17).
•
Unscrew the nut (d) from the motor shaft and
remove the outer flange (16).
•
Fit the cutting wheel (15) to the flange, fit the
outer flange (16) again and screw the nut (d)
onto the thread by hand.
•
Place the ring wrench (21) on the nut (d), use
the counterholder (20) to block the motor
shaft and tighten using the ring wrench (21).
•
Fasten the side cover again.
Important! Check that the cutting wheel rotates in
the correct direction!
6.1.2 Fitting the splitter (Fig. 6, 7)
•
Unscrew the screws (14) on the table top to
undo the holder for the splitter (11).
•
Insert the splitter (19) through the table top
from above.
•
Fasten the holder for the splitter (11) to the
splitter using the screws (14).
•
The splitter must be positioned in the center
along an imaginary line extending behind the
cutting wheel (15), so that it is not possible for
the material to get jammed.
