BLADE SAFETY
WARNING

ALWAYS inspect diamond blades before each use.
The blade should exhibit no cracks, dings, or flaws in
the steel centered core and/or rim. Center (arbor)
hole must be undamaged and true.

Examine blade flanges for damage, excessive wear
and cleanliness before mounting blade. Blade should
fit snugly on the shaft and against the inside/outside
of the saw.

Only cut the material that is specified by the blade.
Read the specifications of the blade to ensure the
proper tool has been matched to the material being
cut.

ALWAYS keep blade guards in place. Exposure of
the blade must not exceed 180 degrees.

Ensure that the blade does not come into contact
with the ground or surface during transportation. DO
NOT drop the blade on the 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 blade to exceed the
maximum safe allowable speed.

Ensure that the blade is mounted for proper
operating direction.
