INSTALLATION

ASSEMBLY
Warning! Never connect the plug to power
source outlet until all installations and adlustments
are completed and tou haven read and understood
the safety and operational instructions.
Installing the stand
Fig.1
• Assemble the four legs to the table.
• Take care to tighten the bolts firmly, so that the
machine stands securely.
• Place the water reservoir in the table, and secure it in
place using the two clamps (13, Fig. 1).
• Place the machine in the water reservoir.
CONNECTING TO THE POWER SUPPLY
Check that the power supply and plug used in
accordance with tour tool. Have a look at the rating plate
on the tile cutter. Any changes should always be carried
out by a qualified electrician.
We strongly recommend the use of an RCD
(Residual Current Device) of not more than 30 mA,
at the plug socket when using this appliance.
Warning! This machine must be earthed.
If not properly earthed this machine can cause an electrical
shock. Be sure that the power supply outlet is earthed. If
there is any doubt, have it checked by a qualified electrician.
Warning! Avoid contact with the terminals on the
plug when installing (removing) the plug to (from)
the power supply outlet. Contact will cause a
severe electrical shock.
Using an extension lead
The use of any extension lead will cause some loss of
power. To keep this to a minimum and to prevent
overheating and motor burn-out, ask advice from a
qualified electrician to determine the minimum wire size
of the extension lead.
The extension lead should be equipped with an earthed
type plug that fits the power supply outlet at one end,
and with an earthed type socket that fits the plug of the
machine at the other end.

OPERATING THE TOOL

Read and understand the following items about
your tile cutter before attempting to use the
machine.
Fig.1
• Adjust the required tool position, then tighten all the
adjusting knobs, fence bolts and mitre gauge bolts.
• Release the locked knob (12, Fig.1).
• Turn on the main switch and allow your tool to reach
the maximum speed before commencing cutting.
4
• Hold the workpiece firmly against the work table and
fence, then feed machine smoothly and evently to the
workpiece.
• Cutting actions tends to slow the blade down.
Pressure should therefore be occasionally released
to allow the blade to regain the full speed.
Warning! Do not attempt topick up an off-cut or
to remove the holding workpiece before the cutting
blade has completely stopped. If holding the
workpiece by hand take extreme care and ensure
hand is kept away from the cutting blade.
CHANGING CUTTING BLADE
Fig.1 - 2
Warning! To avoid injury from accidental starting,
always turn the switch off "0" and remove the
power plug from the power source before changing
the blade.
• Remove the safety cover (9, Fig. 1).
• Use correctly sized open-ended spanners to loosen
the (left-handed thread) nut (1, Fig. 2).
• Remove the outer flange (2, Fig. 2), then the saw
blade (3, Fig. 2).
• When fitting the new blade, note the correct
direction of rotation: the points on the saw blade and
on the safety cover (9, Fig. 1) must face the same
direction.
• Re-fit the outer flange, and then tighten the nut firmly
(Fig. 2).
Remark:
• Inspect the new saw blade for nicks and other visible
damage. In the event it is damaged, remove the saw
blade.
• Hold the shaft using a smaller spanner, and tighten
the nut firmly, using a larger open-ended spanner.

MAINTENANCE

During maintenance and cleaning always remove
the mains plug from the socket. Never use liquids
when cleaning electrical parts of the tile cutter.
The Ferm machines have been designed to operate over
a long period of time with a minimum of maintenance.
Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon
proper machine care and regular cleaning.
Cleaning
Keep the ventilation slots of the machine clean to prevent
overheating of the engine. Regularly clean the machine
housing with a soft cloth, preferably after each use. Keep
the ventilation slots free from dust and dirt. If the dirt does
not come off use a soft cloth moistened with soapy water.
Never use solvents such as petrol, alcohol, ammonia
water, etc. These solvents may damage the plastic parts.
Lubrication
The machine requires no additional lubrication.
