WATER PUMP SYSTEM INFORMATION
NOTICE
You may wish to immerse your water pump in a drum of fresh water, as to allow clean/unslurried water to cool the
Diamond Blade. This action will keep your machine cleaner and allow the greatest life for your Diamond Blade.
The Electric Water Pump is a powerful, thermally protected, self-lubricating, fully submersible unit capable of de-
livering 170 gallons (644 litres) of water per hour. For operator convenience, the pump power cord plugs into the
female receptacle of the motor terminal box, and is automatically activated as soon as the motor is turned to the
"ON" position.
The pump has been designed to operate "WET", therefore it is advisable to disconnect the pump if the operation
calls for "DRY" cutting. When running wet, the pump should be kept in the water reservoir in a position that per-
mits the scupper to be fully submersed. For optimum performance and longevity, it is best to keep clean water in
the reservoir at all times.
