If for any reason, this unit must be returned to our plant for warranty service, please apply for prior authorization with shipping instructions, and include the following information: Customer Purchase Order Number, Buehler Invoice Number, Date, Serial Number, and reason for return. Unpacking Carefully unpack and check contents.
Location The ISOMET™ 2000 Precision Saw is intended for bench-top placement. Select a location with convenient access to electrical and water services. Electrical All units operate with a universal requirement range from 85-264V 50/60 Hz AC Input. Appropriate cord for country of use is supplied. Blade Installation Flanges support the Wafering and Abrasive Blades.
older blades dressed as required based on the properties of the sample material being cut. (See Maintenance: Blade Dressing.) Cooling and Lubrication Two different methods of applying coolant/lubricant are provided with the ISOMET™ 2000 Saw. For most applications the self contained recirculating system will provide adequate coolant flow.
Some types of GFI protection circuitry on the market are very sensitive and may trip prematurely during machine start-up. If this happens, the BUEHLER Service Department should be contacted to recommend a solution. Check the circuit breaker on the rear of the unit. It should be in the (I) On position.
CAUTION Make sure the specimen is secured into chuck and the chuck to the arm so that the specimen will not slip or rotate during cutting. Improper clamping or chuck selection may cause blade damage. Positioning the Sample To position the specimen for cutting, the Position section of the Control Panel in Figure 5 is used.
NOTE The Support Arm can be raised/lowered and advanced/retracted with the cover open or closed. Figure 4 Specimen Chuck Adjustment Setting the Load To set the amount of force to be applied to the sample during the cutting cycle, the Load section of the Control Panel is used. Refer to Application Guide for proper load selection.
Figure 5 Front Panel Checking and Adjusting Load During the cutting cycle, the ISOMET™ 2000 Saw will monitor the load being applied to the blade. If an overload condition occurs, the system will automatically decrease the load to maintain optimum cutting conditions.

Press the CYCLE RUN Button. The Support Arm will begin to lower and the Blade will rotate at the selected speed. The preset load will not be applied for approximately 7 seconds. During this interval, the sample will approach the blade and a 100g load will be applied in order to establish a "kerf"...
the blade surface "loads up" when cutting soft materials, the % set load may vary as the system adjusts for optimum load conditions. (See Checking and Adjusting Load.) NOTE If the bar graph does attain 100%, the removal rate may be too high for the material being cut.
Figure 7 Dressing Chuck and Blade Dressing Maintenance General Specification: Sound level is 77dBA maximum. Internal Coolant/Lubricant Recirculating System When Coolant/Lubricant is contaminated with abrasive residue or swarf, it should be discarded and replaced. To drain coolant; turn off unit, lift the hood, remove the blade and flanges.
