Troubleshooting

Blade overheating during use

For dry cutting, reduce cutting pressure and allow the blade to cool. For wet cutting, ensure adequate water flow to the blade.

Blade not cutting efficiently

Check for excessive wear on the diamond segments. Ensure the blade is installed in the correct rotation direction. Clean any debris from the blade segments.

Excessive vibration during operation

Verify the blade is securely mounted and balanced. Check the saw's arbor for damage or debris.
