28Diamond cutting discs (1)MAKITA diamond cutting discs meet the highest demandsin working safety, ease of operation, and economical cut-ting performance. They can be used for cutting all materialsexcept metal.The high durability of the diamond grains ensures low wearand thereby a very long service life with almost no change indisc diameter over the lifetime of the disc. This gives consistentcutting performance and thus high economy. The outstandingcutting qualities of the discs make cutting easier.The metal disc plates give highly concentric running for minimalvibration during use.The use of diamond cutting discs reduces cutting time significant-ly. This in turn leads to lower operating costs (fuel consumption,wear on parts, repairs, and last but not least environmentaldamage).SPECIAL ACCESSORIESWater tank (5)The water tank is designed to be mounted on the guide trolley.Its high capacity makes it especially suitable for situationsinvolving frequent site changes. For filling or for fast changingto reserve tanks, the tank can be simply lifted off the trolley.The water tank comes with all necessary connections and hoses.Mounting to the trolley and Power Cut are very fast and simple.Mains/pressure water system (6)The mains/pressure water system is designed to be mountedon the Power Cut. It can be used with or without the trolley,but is especially suitable for applications involving hand-held,stationary cutting. The water line has a fast-release connection,and can be fed either from a mains supply or from a pressuretank (7).The water system comes with all necessary connections andlines. It can be quickly and easily mounted on the Power Cut.Guide trolley (2)The MAKITA guide trolley makes it much easier to do straightcuts, while simultaneously enabling almost untiring working. Itcan be adjusted for the operator´s height, and can be operatedwith the cutting attachment mounted in the middle or on the side.NOTE: Before mounting the EK8100 Power Cut on the guidetrolley, it will be necessary to remove the stand (see illustration(*) in the chapter “Extract from the spare parts list”).For easier refuelling when using the trolley, we recommendadding an angled tank filler neck (3).A depth limiter can be added for still easier and more accuratecutting. It makes it possible to maintain a precise predeterminedcut depth (4).To keep down dust and for better cutting-disc cooling, MAKITAoffers several options for wetting the disc during operation.6245713
