I have just brought a Ridgid WTS2000L 10 inch brick/tile saw.
It has dried on hard tile dust probably a 1/16 thick.
How do you get this stuff off, I have treid soaking in water and
pressure washing off, nothing seems to shift it.
Is there anyway to remove this crud without damaging the saw.
Please comment

Here is one guide re using rubbing alcohol

White vinegar or muriatic acid - that's the stuff they use to wash
mortar residue from brick and block work .Vinegar is safer but takes
longer . That ehow link is pretty much useless for anything but fresh
residue that hasn't cured yet .

I would have thought Muric acid would eat up the alumium castings
