GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
1. Be certain you have the
correct
diamond or abrasive blade. Contact your
authorizedservicing dealer for the correct specification. Getting the correct blade
will make a tremendous difference in your blade
costs
and performance.
2. The blade
shaft
flange and arbor must be inspected for damage and cleaned before
mounting blade. If damaged replace bad parts. Inspect blade for damage to arbor
hole and flange area before attempting to mount blade.
3.
Mount the blade solidly
and firmly
on blade shaft arbor using the wrench
provided. Make sure the arrow on both the blade and the blade guard are pointing
in the
same
direction of rotation. The lock pin in the outer blade flange must go
completely through the blade and into the matching hole in the inside blade flange.
Tighten blade
f1ange
nut very securely.
(Approximately
50 .Ib.). Note
that
the
blade shaft nut on the right hand side has left hand threads which tightens by turning
counter-clockwise. Some models the blade
shaft
nut on the left hand
side
has
right
hand threads which tightens by turning clockwise.
4.
WARNING: DO NOT operate without proper blade guard in place. Do not
operate with front of blade guard raised. Blade exposure cannot
exceed 180 degrees when cutting.
5. The front pointer must be
checked
for
alignment
with blade. It must be in line with
a blade mounted on the blade shaft. Use a
chalk
line or long
straight edge to
verify
alignment.
6.
DO NOT use conventional(wet) diamondblades without water!
You must have from 2-1 /2 to 5 gallons of water per minute flowing over the
blade for proper cooling and to get maximum blade life. For wet sawing be
sure the spray holes in the blade guard water tubes are open and that each
side of the blade has an adequate supply of water.Test your water supply for
pressure and quantity (flow) before starting to saw.
7. Saw
in
a straight
line. Mark the
cutting
line
clearly
so the
saw
operator
can
follow
the line without difficulty .
The
saw should not be twisted from
side
to
side
trying
to force the b
l
ade back
on
line.
8. Saw
only as deep as the
specifications and
job
conditions require.
This will save
blade life and reduce
sawing costs. Sawing
excessively deep
is
wasteful
and
should
be
avoided. Step
cut in increments of two inches for best results.
