Your Zephyr Gryphon saw may have seized up because the rubber guide wheels for the blade were over-tightened, pressing too hard against the blade. Adjusting them slightly away from the blade should solve the problem. Additionally, ensure the saw has enough water for cooling, as running the blade dry can cause damage.
Warranty: Your new Gryphon Zephyr Ring Saw is warranted for three years from date of purchase. All mechanical parts with the exception of the blade, drive belt, drive wheels and wheel bearings are guaranteed against failure for three years. If such a failure occurs for any reason other than abuse or misuse during this period, it will be repaired (or at our option replaced) free of charge FOB our factory.
