RULES AND REGULATIONS
Always store equipment properly when not being used.
Equipment should be stored in a clean, dry location out
of the reach of children. When storing the saw in freezing
weather, blow out the water lines to prevent damage to
components in the water delivery system.
DON'T POLLUTE! Waste Oils and other chemicals must
be disposed of in a manner consistent with local and
state environmental protection regulations.
Always observe all applicable compulsory regulations
relevant to environmental protection, especially fuel
storage, the handling of hazardous substances, and the
wearing of protective clothing and equipment. Instruct
the user as necessary, or, as the user, request this
information and training.
DIAMOND BLADE SAFETY
Use appropriate steel-centered diamond blades
manufactured for particular use on your saw. See further
blade information in this manual.
Examine blade flanges for damage and excessive wear.
Ensure the cleanliness of the blade before blade is
installed. 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 spindle speed of the saw.
Only cut the material that is specified for the diamond
blade. Read the specifications of the diamond blade to
ensure the proper tool has been matched to the material
being cut. The saw has been engineered for WET
CUTTING. Ensure a WET CUTTING blade is being used
and that the water supply system to the blade is properly
functioning and being used.
ALWAYS keep blade guards in place. Exposure of the
diamond blade must not exceed 180 degrees.
Ensure that the diamond blade does not come into contact
with the ground or surface during transportation. DO NOT
drop the diamond blade on ground or surface.
The engine governor is set to permit maximum engine
speed in a no-load condition. Do not tamper with the
engine governor to increase the speed. Increasing the
engine speed could allow the maximum rated spindle
speed to be exceeded, creating an unsafe condition.
Ensure that the blade is mounted for proper operating
direction.
Adhere to the blade manufacturer’s recommendations
on handling, storage, and safe usage of blades.
WARNING — Inspect Diamond Blades
ALWAYS inspect diamond 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.
