Cutting Fluid - Grizzly G9743 Owner's Manual

4. Adjust the valve on the coolant hose to
control the flow of coolant (see Figure 18).
Make sure that the pressure is not so high
that coolant spills on the floor and creates a
slipping hazard.

the low mark or you will over-heat the pump
and void your warranty!

Cutting Fluid

While simple in concept and function, many
issues must be taken into account to find and use
the correct cutting fluid. Always follow all product
warnings and contact the fluid manufacturer for
unanswered questions.
Use the selections below to choose the appro-
priate cutting fluids:
• For cutting low alloy, low carbon, and gen-
eral-purpose category metals with a bi-metal
blade —use a water soluble cutting fluid.
• For cutting stainless steels, high carbon, and
high alloy metals, brass, copper and mild
steels—use "Neat Cutting Oil" (commonly
undiluted mineral oils) that have extreme
pressure additives (EP additives).
• For cutting cast iron, cutting fluid is not rec-
ommended.
Remember: Too much flow at the cutting fluid
nozzle will make a mess and can make the work
area unsafe; and not enough fluid at the cut will
heat the blade, causing the blade teeth to load up
and break.
BIOLOGICAL
POISON HAZARD! Use
proper personal protection
equipment when handling
cutting fluid and dispose
by following federal, state,
and fluid manufacturer
requirements to properly
dispose of cutting fluid.
