Governor Speeds 

 
It is critical that the governor and throttle on all  internal combustion engines are adjusted 
properly. Engine speed is preset at factory for proper sawing speed. It is not normally 
necessary to change this setting. It should be periodically verified after saw is placed into 
service. To change governor sets, refer to the engine manual. 
 
Warning: Over speeding the engine and blade shaft can cause serious damage to the blade 
resulting in personal injury to the operator and bystanders. To assure the proper governor 
adjustments, do not exceed the following speeds: 
 

Maximum No Load Blade Shaft RPM (3250) Maximum No Load Engine RPM (3900) 

 

 

Do not use conventional (wet) diamond blades with the water tank as the water 
source because there is not sufficient water flow available to properly cool the 
blades 

 

 

Maximum blade capacity for BSS18H39W is 18" (450mm).
