  CAUTION!
Lubricating the stone cutter before and during work is not needed. Exces-
sive oil will turn to a tar-like substance inside the tool, causing the vanes 
to stick in the rotor and slow the tool down. This is the reason we do not 
recommend automatic oilers to be used with this stone cutter. Old or worn 
compressors, which emit oil through the air lines, can significantly shorten 
the life of the tool.
