Maintenance - Makita 4190D Instruction Manual

Operation (Fig. 14)
Hold the tool firmly. Set the base plate on the workpiece
to be cut without the wheel making any contact. Then
turn the tool on and wait until the wheel attains full speed.
Feed water to the wheel by adjusting the water cock to
obtain a gentle flow of water. Move the tool forward over
the workpiece surface, keeping it flat and advancing
smoothly until the cutting is completed. Keep your cutting
line straight and your speed of advance uniform. For fine,
clean cuts, cut slowly. (When cutting glass plate 5 mm
thick, cut at about 250 mm/min. When cutting tile 10 mm
thick, cut at about 300 mm/min.) Also slow down as you
complete a cut to avoid breaking or cracking the work-
piece being cut.
CAUTION:
• Be sure to hold the workpiece firmly down on a stable
bench or table during operation.
• Do not twist or force the tool in the cut, or the motor
may be overloaded or the workpiece may break.
• Do not use the tool with the wheel in an upward or side-
ways position.
• When cutting glass plate, it is recommended to attach a
rubber plate (optional accessory) on the base of the
tool to prevent the workpiece surface from being
scratched.
• The wheel for Model 4190D/DB is a wet-type wheel for
glass and tile applications. Be sure to feed water to the
wheel during operation.
• If the cutting action of the wheel begins to diminish,
dress the cutting edge of the wheel using an old dis-
carded coarse grit bench grinder wheel or concrete
block. Dress by pressing lightly on the outer edge of the
wheel.
