FAQ
Question: What kind of vacuum cleaner shall I use with ESC-150?
Answer: You need to use HEPA Vacuum according to OSHA’s Table 1. Please see link below for details. https://www.osha.gov/pls/oshaweb/owadisp.show_document?p_table=STANDARDS&p_id=1270
Question: What is the warranty on the ESC-150?
Answer: One year warranty (See manual for details)
Question: Can I use the ASC-5CSM Carriage Assembly on the ESC-150?
Answer: No, you cannot use the ASC-5CSM Universal Carriage System due to the fact it is designed for ESC-125 which is a 5” stone cutter. The ESC-150 requires a larger carriage which is the ASC-6CSM.
Question: Why does the ESC-150 come with two locations for the anti-vibration side handle?
Answer: Alpha® provided two positional locations for the side handle for user comfort and stability during the cutting applications.
Question: When I use as a dry cutting application, dust breaches from the bottom of the stone. How can I prevent dust issue?
Answer: When a diamond blade cuts through the stone, dust will be kicked out from the bottom of the slab before it comes up to the surface of slab. You can put a substrate such as another stone slab or Styrofoam sheet to encapsulate the edge of diamond blade so that dust would be kicked up toward the point of a dust suction.
Question: Without TT Ruler Guide, how can I cut straight line?
Answer: You have two options if you would like to take an advantage of guide to cut straight line. One is to use the Alpha® Guide Rail and Carriage System. Another is using Alpha® Spike Ruler if the cut is less than 3ft.
