<strong>Diamond</strong> Blades<br />

Damage to steel centre<br />

195<br />

Problems, malfunctions and their cause<br />

Problem Cause Solution<br />

Blue discoloration on steel centre Blade overheated due to insufficient water Ensure adequate water supply<br />

and segment supports<br />

Lateral friction caused by wandering Reduce advance speed<br />

off course<br />

When the layer is cut right through with the Set cutting depth to a few millimetres<br />

floor saw, the cooling water escapes from less than the total thickness of the layer<br />

the cut and the saw blade overheats so that the water stays in the cut<br />

Cracks in steel centre Saw blade overloaded, segment specification Select segment specification to suit<br />

too hard machine power output and material to<br />

be cut<br />

Cutting pressure too high, binding or Advance blade evenly and avoid<br />

twisting of the blade in the cut binding and twisting<br />

Spindle speed too high Reduce spindle speed<br />

Overheating caused by inadequate Ensure adequate water supply<br />

water supply<br />

Blade wanders off course Blade has lost tension Retension steel centre (wallsaw blades)<br />

Blade “pushed” too hard Select segment specification to suit<br />

machine power output and material<br />

to be cut<br />

Segments have lost cutting power Dress segments by cutting abrasive<br />

(segments are polished) material (e.g. sandstone or the <strong>Hilti</strong><br />

sharpening plate, or make a shallow cut<br />

in concrete using a little water<br />

Machine not correctly secured or adjusted Fasten machine securely and adjust<br />

correctly<br />

Signs of abrasion / scraping on steel centre Dirt etc. on clamping flange (saw blade Clean the clamping flange<br />

or discoloration due to overheating not clamped correctly)<br />

Steering movements too sharp / too sudden Guide the machine correctly<br />

Blade wobble Blade has lost tension Retension blade (wallsaw blades)<br />

Spindle speed or peripheral speed too high Use appropriate specification for the machine<br />

Saw blade stored incorrectly causing bending Mount blades on a mandrel for storage<br />

Mounting hole worn / enlarged Drive spindle badly worn due to incorrectly Saw blade must be seated correctly<br />

seated saw blade on the spindle before tightening<br />

the flange<br />

Flange not tightened correctly, blade rotates Use a wrench to tighten the clamping<br />

on the spindle (slips) nut properly<br />
