cut with the saw at less than full throttle could cause the blade to
bind or stop abruptly in the slab resulting in serious injury to the
operator or others in the area.

conveyor cart
with the material, slowly and evenly
until the cut is complete. Move the cart back and remove
the cut pieces.
11. Avoid overloading the engine when cutting. In the event that
the engine becomes overloaded, turn the
engine
ON/OFF
switch to the
OFF
position and allow the engine to
cool
before

ALWAYS
be alert to the fact that there is a rotating blade on the
saw and be extremely aware of your body position - especially
your hands in relationship to the rotating blade. The possibility

priming bulb
(Figure 29)until
water begins to flow through the
water lines. If the pump is working
correctly, the cutting blade should be
covered with a steady water mist.
This will keep the blade cool.
