BLADE SAFETY
■
Use appropriate blades manufactured for use on masonry
saws.
■
Always inspect 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 blade flanges.
■
Ensure 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 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.

NEVER
touch or try to stop a moving
blade with your hands.
ALWAYS
keep hands clear of the blade.
■
Ensure that the blade does not come
into contact with the ground or surface
during transportation.
DO NOT
drop the 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 blade to exceed the maximum safe allowable
speed.
■
Ensure that the blade is mounted for proper operating
direction.

Keep all inexperienced and unauthorized people away from
the equipment at all times.
