PAGE 20 — SP 1 SAW CE— OPERATION AND PARTS MANUAL — REV. #3 (06/09/08)
WARNING
Failure to thoroughly inspect the
diamond blade for operational safety
could result in damage to the blades
or the saw and may cause injury to
the user or others in the operating
area.
2. Blade Guard - Pivot the blade guard front cover all the way
back. The guard tension spring will keep the front cover in
position.
3. Blade Hex Nut - Unscrew the spindle nut (right side loosens
clockwise and tightens counter-clockwise while the left side
loosens counter-clockwise and tightens clockwise. DO NOT
overtighten the nut (approximately 45-50 ft. lb/61-68 N/m)
when finalizing the assembly.
4. Outside Blade Flange (Collar) - Ensure that the outside
blade flange is placed flush against the diamond blade.
The inside surface of the flange must be free of debris and
permit a tight closure on the surface of the blade core.
5. Diamond Blade - Ensure that the proper diamond blade
has been selected for the job. Pay close attention to the
directional arrows on the blade. The blade's operating
directional arrows must point in a "down-cutting" direction
to perform correctly. When placing the blade onto the spindle,
ensure the arbor hole of the blade matches the diameter of
the shaft.
