  • Page 9: Product Specifications

    170789 (w/o Hood & Vise) *220Volt w/Hood & Vise Part # 169780 The BD7 will manually cut specimens up to 1-3/16" (30mm) in height and has a 14" (356 mm) x 14" (356 mm) self-aligning tabletop. Blade Lubricate Approximately 1/3 gallon (1.3 liters) of lubricant is required to adequately cover the bottom of a 7-inch (178 mm) blade.
  • Page 10: Oil/Coolant

    OIL/COOLANT RECOMMENDED CUTTING OILS Never run a diamond blade dry as this can immediately damage your blade. Use one of the oils/coolants recommended below. Coolant should be kept clean and below 100° F. Sludge should be removed periodically and replaced with fresh coolant so that your cuts will be clean and your blades will not be damaged.
  • Page 11: Assembly

    Adding Lubricant Before operating the BD7, fill the reservoir so the lubricant fluid covers the bottom 1/4" (6.35 mm) of the blade. Be sure the sludge plug is pressed in. Equipment Damage: Do not overfill the reservoir. Excess fluid will result in unnecessary WARNING spraying of fluid while sawing.
  • Page 12: Power Switch

    OPERATION Power Switch 1. Check that the power switch is in the OFF position. 2. Plug-in the power cord. Power Test Move the power switch to the ON position to rotate the blade. (Figure 6) Check that the blade is rotating. This indicates the saw is functioning properly.
  • Page 13: Cutting

    CUTTING Cutting with the Trim Saw Ensure the power switch is in the OFF position. Slide the vise to the front of the saw. (Figure 8) Loosen the wing nuts to open the rock vise jaws clamp to fit the material to be cut.

  • Page 14: Maintenance

  • Page 15: Motor

    MAINTENANCE Motor The motor shaft has sealed ball bearings and requires no lubrication. The motor should be protected from spray when cutting without plastic hood in place. The motor is protected from thermal damage (overheating) with an automatic shut-off switch. If this should occur, shut off the main motor by placing the power switch to the OFF position and disconnect- ing the power source.
