Installing the Coolant Hose Holder and Coolant Reservoir

The gray coolant hose holder and coolant reservoir must be installed when using a diamond saw blade. The reservoir and hose holder feed coolant to the blade. Using coolant with a diamond blade is imperative to maintaining the cutting ability and life of the blade.

Install the drip blade guide by placing it against the upper back of the frame with the blade passing through the vertical slot in the holder front. Secure using (2) 10-24 x 3/4” thumb screws. Attach the length of small diameter plastic tubing (about 10” long) to the stem on the back of the coolant hose holder. NOTE: Running the end of the plastic hose under warm water makes it easier to insert onto the stem.

Installing Drain Hose

When using a diamond blade, the coolant drain hose must be installed. This is the large diameter plastic tube (about 48" long). If you are using the WoodCut™ or MetalCut™ blade omit this step.

Straighten the hose before using by soaking it in warm water a few minutes and then pull it to remove any kinks. Slide the drain hose onto the large stem located at the bottom front of the saw. Put the opposite end of the hose into a collection container placed below the saw. Position the saw to the front edge of your work bench with the drain hose laying flat and extending straight out and then down off the work bench into the collection container.

NOTE: Periodically remove the hose and flush out any cutting residue to keep it working correctly.
