• Any damage to the saw should be repaired and

carefully inspected before use, by qualified

repair personnel. Service or maintenance

performed by unqualified personnel could result

in a risk of injury.

• Servicing should only be carried out by

authorised Triton Repair Centres using original

Triton replacement parts. Follow instructions

carefully and refer to “Trouble-shooting” for

problem identification and advice. Use of

unauthorised or faulty parts may

create a risk of electric shock or injury.

• Triton Manufacturing & Design Co. will not be

responsible for any damage or injury caused

by unauthorised repair of the saw or by

mishandling of the tool.

• Regularly check that the saw arbor, arbor

washers and bore reducing spacer are clean,

and free of built-up gum deposits

or caked-on saw dust.

Check that the faces of the arbor

washers are smooth and free from

burrs. Check that the blade retaining

bolt is correctly tightened.

• Check the operation of the retracting guard.

It must close quickly and without scraping

anywhere. Remove the blade and clean

accumulated saw dust or wood slivers from the

guard area.

• The saw ventilation slots should be kept clean

and clear of any foreign matter. Use a lightly

dampened cloth to wipe the saw clean - do not

use solvents.

BLADE MAINTENANCE

• Regularly check that the blade is free from a

build up of gum resins or saw dust. If necessary

clean with a solvent such as WD40, RP7 or

mineral turpentine.

• Regularly check the saw blade for flatness.

Use of the saw with a buckled blade places

excessive load on the motor and gearbox

assembly, and may affect your warranty rights.

• The tungsten carbide teeth should be checked

regularly for sharpness and tooth breakages,

and repaired or re-sharpened as required.

POWER CORD MAINTENANCE

If the supply cord needs replacing, the task must

be carried out by the manufacturer,

the manufacturer’s agent, or an authorised

service centre in order to avoid a

safety hazard.
