OWNER’S MANUAL 

 

 

Blade Safety  

 
Use appropriate reinforced abrasive blades or steel centered diamond blades manufactured for 
use on concrete saws. Do not use conventional abrasive blades with water. 
 
Always inspect diamond blades before each use. The blade should exhibit no cracks, damage, 
or flaws in the steel centered core and/or rim. Center (arbor) hole must be. Examine blade 
flanges for damage, excessive wear and cleanliness before mounting blade. Blade should fit 
tightly on the shaft and against the inside/outside blade flanges. 
  
Ensure that the blade is marked with an operating speed greater than the blade shaft speed of 
the saw.  
 
Only cut the material that is specified by the diamond blade. Read the specifications of the 
diamond blade to ensure the proper tool has been matched to the material being cut. Use only 
dry cutting diamond blades with the optional water tank kit for dust suppression. 
  
Always keep blade guards in place. Exposure of the diamond blade must not exceed 180 
degrees. 
 
Ensure that the diamond blade does not come into contact with ground or surface during 
transportation. Do not drop the diamond blade on ground or surface.  
 
The engine governor is designed to permit maximum engine speed in a no-load condition.  
Speeds that exceed this limit may cause the diamond blade to exceed the maximum safe 
allowable speed.  
 
Ensure that the blade is mounted for proper operating direction.  

Transportation Safety  
 

Use the lifting bail and appropriate lifting equipment to ensure the safe movement of the saw.  
 
Do not use the handle bars and/or front pointer as lifting points.  
 
Never tow the saw behind a vehicle. 
  
Ensure that both pointer bars are positioned appropriately to minimize their exposure during 
transportation.  
 
Engines tipped to extreme angles may cause oil to flow into the cylinder head making the 
engine difficult to start.
