Care And Storage; Diamond Blades - Partner K950 RING Operator's Manual

Pull in
Pull in occurs when the lower part of the blade is suddenly
stopped or when the cut closes. (To avoid this see the section
" How to avoid kickback " and "Pinching/rotation" below).
Pinching/rotation
Pinching occurs when the cut closes. The power cutter can be
drawn suddenly and powerfully downwards.
How to avoid pinching
Support the work piece in
such a way that the cut
remains open during the
cutting operation and when
the cut is finished.
Check the engine speed
Use a tachometer regularly
to check the engine speed
when the cutter is running at
working temperature and at
full throttle without a load.
The maximum engine speed
is stated on the machine.
!
WARNING!
If the speed is higher than that stated then the
unit must be adjusted by an authorised
service workshop before it is used.

Care and storage

General
Partner's power cutters are robust and durable. However, as
they are used for high speed operations all servicing should be
carried out on time and as specified, so that the power cutter
always works effectively and safely.
Read this Operator's Manual to determine which service
routines you can carry out and ensure that all other service
work is carried out by an authorised service workshop.
Power Cutter
Always handle the power cutter with care and store it in the
wooden carrying case in which it is delivered.

WARNING!
Cool a diamond blade continously with water
to prevent overheating, which can cause the
blade to break and pieces being thrown off
resulting in injury and damage.
Water cooling
!
WARNING! Water cooling, which is used when
cutting concrete, cools the cutting blade and
increases its service life as well as reduce
dust formation. Among the disadvantages are
difficulties at very low temperatures, the risk
of damaging the floor and other sections of
the building and risk for slippage.
Sharpening diamond blades
Blades can become dull when the wrong feeding pressure is
used or when cutting some materials such as heavily reinforced
concrete. To force a dull blade results in overheating and finally
the loss of segments (part of the blade).
Sharpen against a soft material such as sandstone or haydite
brick.
