Cold saw coolant

[neilgrahamirwin@hotmail.c]

Hi, just acquired a Clarke Metalworker Cold Saw, all works well except coolant pump, its a cam type but all the rubber around pump has split and fallen off so no longer works-can i just put coolant in a spray bottle and apply direct to blade that way, or are there any other ingenious methods out there!?

Why not replace the part? Clarke have a good spares department, I have used them - very quick and easy. Sounds like an easy job.

Any low rate pump will work. Get a machine tool suds pump, or a car oil pump or something. You really want it to wash the blade constantly - manually doing it at a high enough rate will be a pain. Don't run it without coolant.
