MQ PS4030 SAW • OPERATION MANUAL — REV. #0 (02/29/08) — PAGE 17
All MQ PS4030 saws are designed, engineered and
manufactured with strict adherence to American National
Standards Institute, Inc. (ANSI) guidelines B7.1 and B7.5.
Water System
All MQ PS4030 saws provide a hardy water plumbing system that
evenly distributes water volume and optimum flow rate to both
sides of the blade to keep it cool when cutting. The basic water
system provides a valve that connects to a standard garden hose.
The water is delivered (via a hose) to the saw blade.
Engine
The MQ PS4030 saw is classified in the industry as a "high" powered
saw. This classification is particularly useful when selecting the
proper cutting tool (blade) for an application.
The MQ PS4030 saw is powered by a liquid cooled, 2 cylinder
diesel engine rated at 30 HP (22.37 kW) at 3,000 RPM. Blade
rotation is belt driven. Wheel Drive system is driven by a
hydrostatic transmission consisting of a variable displacement
pump and two fixed displacement wheel motors.
