Wet cutter playing up!

[trevortine]

I have a rubi dw250lps which has served me well until recentley. Hasnt been used for a while so got it packed into van the other day to do a granite job. Cant get the thing to cut in a straight line. I checked to see if the blade has been knocked therefore making it warped but it looks ok, anyone else experienced this?:sad_smile:

what you might find trev is one edge /side of the wheel has worn down quicker than the other side but that is due to pushing the tiles through to quick,i know this is probably correct as my younger brother tends to do the same thing with mine

Its a rail cutter m8 and i tend to be careful with it. I do remember giving a loan of it to a fellow tiler and seem to think that ive not used it since. Think a new blade might cure it?

well if hes been carrying it by the rail ,it might be bent

just bought the new version dw-250n have u checked to see if any of the nuts retaining the motor have loosened or try using a sqaure and place it at of the bed side and then pass the motor alond the rail and see if it runs true if not try small adjustments till you get it to run true hope this helps mate .GOOD LUCK!!.
