tips on the dewalt d2000

i always put the water pump in a clean bucket of water when finished so it flushes the pipes through and prevents any tile slurry building up.

I've just found this site selling all spare parts for the Dewalt D24000...
The parts are for the mark 1 version. I suppose most parts will fit the mark 2. If not i'm sure they will be able to supply.

Ideal if you have cut your "rear flap" (item 54 on the page),not that anybody would do that on here...AHEM!

->Click here for spare parts<-

If anybody tries them, please report how you faired etc

PS
What are the differences between the the mark 1 and 2?

I reckon a laser would be a real bonus ! my mate has one on his wood cut saw, save a lot of pratting about lining cuts to blade, any suggestions well accepted here !!, btw, Phil Hobson not entirely to blame for cut through his rolling bed, i must confess I made it worse ! BUT did get it plated with special steel and properly fixed, like a gent I offered him bed off my new one, but he declined the offer !! Any way fulabeer where are you in Manchester , I hail from there, often found in pubs around town, fav ones are circus, vine, city arms, britons protector hare and hounds shudehill to mention a few !! and not to mention you got a top badge displayed on your posts !!!!............ bluuuuu moooon !!

I've only been in the Circus a couple of times since George retired.
I used to go into Paddy's Goose with a Gay friend of mine.
Unfortunately he died from a heart attack six months a go and the village is just not my scene etc.
I'm from Droyslden, so Staly Vegas is very handy, but even that has really gone down hill these days.

The laser comes into its own when the light starts to fade. It helps locate the blade before you cut etc.
It also helps when you want to notch out U shapes etc. It stops you from wandering to far left or right.

On a side note...
I must urge anybody who wants a D24000 to buy from Dave and Katrina at Trade Tiler.
Excellent service from start to finish.
If you add the fact that you get two Porcelain blades and a stand included, it works out the cheapest deal around.

If you pick up like i did, then make sure you avoid Katrina's tea!
Just kidding Katrina !!! ( in case you are reading this), i cannot praise you high enough for your attitude and friendliness.
I promise i will have a brew next time i'm passing.

Is there anywhere on the D24000 to store the extra set of disc clamps (for cutting larger blocks etc)?

my son and one of the polish guys move my machine today and one of the guide wheel's broke off the front one on the left of the cutter,after i they had been very gentle in moving it, i looked at it and could see rust and think it must have been over-tightend in being made!!

I guess you may have a warranty claim or just take it out of your sons wages. See what your dealer says about it.

Re: Dewalt D24000 hints/tips and accessories thread...

I am interested in how this wheel has broke. You dont seem to have much luck, water spraying and now wheels breaking. I am not the most careful bloke when it comes to using the cutter but never had any problems at all.
Lets see a picture of this broken wheel.
