ive just got a new sigma i have not been able to test it yet as im doing slate for the next few weeks.
ive noticed that the cutting wheel does not spin is this because it needs using or does the nut want loosening.
thanks guys..........

The nut must too tight mate, it should spin.

thanks droopy......bit of a daft question really but just thought id check.

Yip,too tight,
loosen slightly with philips head screwdriver,just enough to let the wheel spin,loosen too much and your wheel will wobble when scoring or cut slight curve.
Happy cutting oldgit.

Try this too...

WD-40 spray can

ta mate,im a bit gutted really im doing slate so i cant test it and i emptied the garage so i aint even got any old tiles to test it.

ive used wd40 for years but recently was told to use silicone spray as it will stop all the splinters and crap from clogging up every thing.
what do you guys say.

be a bit sad though wouldnt it lol

I wouldnt use WD40, no need really and as you say it clogs up the wheel area. All i do is wipe the main bar now and again with a cloth and maybe furniture polish once in a while.
