MAKING YOUR FIRST CUT:
1. Outline the cut with a permanent marker.
2. Start the saw and after a brief warm-up period, rev and hold the trigger on full throttle. Always use full throttle when cutting.
Refer to “Starting the Saw” tip sheet.
3. Carefully align the nose of the bar with the cut line, slowly touch the wall with the chain and plunge straight into the wall.
4. Push hard enough so that the engine RPM drops 20 to 30%. If the chain is stalling in the cut, you’re pushing too hard. If there is
very little difference between free running full RPM and the cutting RPM, you’re not pushing hard enough. Listen for the “sweet
spot” and maintain that RPM throughout any cut.
5. Keep steady, firm pressure on the saw as the chain is cutting. This will prevent chain bounce and chattering and help extend
diamond life. Minimize arm motions.
6. Use the WallWalker
®
to make cutting easier. Insert the point of the WallWalker
®
into the cut and pull up on the rear handle. If saw
is equipped with rubber pad WallWalker
®
, use the rubber pad for leverage in the same way.
