SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Extreme caution should be used when operating all power tools. Know your power

tool, be familiar with its operation, read through the owner’s manual and practice safe

usage procedures at all times.

Always read and understand the user

manual before operating the machine.

Connect your machine only to the

matched and specific power source.

Always wear safety glasses when

operating your machine.

This machine is designed to cut metal

construction materials of different

shapes and profiles. The materials

may be required for fabrication

workshops, machinist shops, and

general construction work.

To obtain good running-in of the

machine it is advisable to start using it

at intervals of about half an hour. This

operation should be repeated two or

three times, after which the machine

may be used continuously.

Disconnect the power source when

changing blade and / or making

adjustments.

Always check that the work-piece is

securely clamped and that long pieces

are suitably supported.

All operations must be performed with

the guards in place to ensure safety.

Immediately release the start/run/trigger

button if the blade should get stuck in a

cut. Switch off the machine before

raising the machine head. Then open

the vise and remove the work-piece.

Lastly, check the blade teeth for any

damage. If any of the teeth are broken,

replace the saw blade.

Always make sure that any tools used

for adjustments are removed before

operating the machine.

Make sure you have read and

understood all the safety instructions in

the manual and you are familiar with

your CX110, before operating it. Failure

to do so, could result serious personal

injuries and damage to the machine.

WARNING!

The safety instructions given above can not be complete because the environment in every

shop is different. Always consider safety first as it applies to your individual working

conditions.

UNPACKING

The machine is properly packaged in a

crate for safe transportation. When

unpacking, carefully inspect the crate and

ensure that nothing has been damaged

during transit.

While doing the inventory if you can not find

any part, check if the part is already

installed on the machine.

The CX110 is a very heavy machine. Use a

forklift truck or other mechanical devices

when transporting the machine.

SETUP

When setting up your machine, you will

want to find an ideal spot where your cold

saw will most likely be positioned most of

the time.

Consider your complete work environment

before placing your machine in the ideal

spot.

Figure-1 CX110 dimensions

MOUNTING

The CX110 cabinet stand comes with four

mounting holes that allow you to mount the

machine to the shop floor.

Lag shield anchors with lag bolts and studs

are two popular methods for anchoring an

object to a concrete floor.

To mount the machine:

Once the stand is completely assembled,

position it in the desired location.

Mark the floor through the four holes on the

stand and move the stand away.

Drill holes on the floor and install the

mounting hardware into the floor using the

method that best fits your specific

application.

Place the stand over mounting hardware

and secure it.

PROPER GROUNDING

Grounding provides a path of least

resistance for electric current to reduce the

risk of electric shock.

The machine should be wired by a qualified

electrician according to C.E.C (Canadian

Electrician Code).

It is strongly recommended not to use

extension cords with your CX110. Always

try to position your machine close to the

power source so that you do not need to

use extension cords.

If you really find it necessary to use an

extension cord, make sure the extension

cord does not exceed 50-feet in length and

the cord is 14-gauge to prevent motor

damage.

WARNING!

Improper connection of the equipment-

grounding conductor can result in a risk

of electric shock. Check with a qualified

electrician if you are in doubt as to

whether the outlet is properly grounded.

ASSEMBLY

Follow the instructions below, to assemble

your CX110:

Take the accessories and coolant tank out

of the stand and set aside for later use.

Place the stand on the floor where you want

to place your machine. Use lifting straps

and position it around the collar of the

moveable jaw and motor as shown in

figure-2.

Figure-2 Lifting straps around the motor

and the jaw of the CX110

Once the lifting straps are properly

positioned around the machine and the

forks of the fork truck, lift the machine.

Align the four setscrews on the base of the

machine with the four holes on the stand

and lower the machine onto the stand.

Direct the setscrews into the holes and

position the machine onto the stand. See

figure-3.

Figure-3 Securing the machine onto the

stand

Attach the coolant tank bracket to the inside

of the stand and secure it using screws and

washers provided. See figure-4.

Figure-4 Installing the coolant tank bracket

Use a wrench and remove the hex head

screw from the oil fill hole shown in figure-5.

Figure-5 Removing the screw from the oil

fill hole

Attach the control handle to the head

assembly by threading its threaded end into

the oil fill hole until it is a tight fit. Make sure

that the trigger switch pointing upwards as

shown in figure-6.

Figure-6 Installing the control handle

Locate the open socket at the side of the

electrical box on the top of the motor and

plug in the control handle cable into the

open socket. Use a wrench to tighten the

cable connector nut. See figure-7.

Figure-7 Connecting the cable to the socket

Attach the support roller to the left side of

the base and align the two holes on the

support roller with the two holes on the

base of the machine. Secure the support

roller using screws and washers, do not

fully tighten the screws at this time.

Place a level across the mouth of the vise

and support roller and raise or lower the

support roller until it is level.

Once the support roller is level with the

mouth of the vise, tighten the screws to

secure the support roller in position. See

figure-8.

Figure-8 Support roller

Insert the threaded end of the stop bar into

the hole on the side of the vise and turn it

clockwise until snug. Secure the stop bar by

tightening the hex nut counter-clockwise

onto the stop bar.

Figure-9 Installing the stop bar

Attach the cover plate to the side of the

stand and secure it using screws provided.

See figure-10.

Figure-10 Installing the cover plate

Attach the coolant pump into the coolant

tank and secure it using screws and

washers provided.

Connect the flow tube to the coolant pump

and secure it using a hose clamp provided.

Use a flat head screw driver to tighten the

screw on the hose clamp.

Figure-11 Coolant pump

Place the coolant pump with the coolant

tank inside the stand onto the coolant tank

bracket. The coolant tank has a divider

which holds the tank.

Attach one end of the drain hose onto the

hose connector, underside of the machine

base and the other end into the coolant

tank. See figure-12.

Figure-12 Coolant tank inside the stand

Install the rear stand cover and secure it

using washers and screws provided.

Attach the splash guard to the front side of

the machine and secure it using screws and

washers provided. See figure-13.

Figure-13 Installing the splash guard

WARNING!
