FS 1 CONCRETE SAW — MAINTENANCE

CAUTION:

General maintenance practices are crucial to the performance and longevity of your saw. The extreme environments of sawing opera- tions require routine cleaning, lubrication, belt tensioning, and inspection for wear and dam- age

WARNING

The following procedures devoted to mainte- nance can prevent serious saw damage or malfunctioning. Before servicing or inspection, ALWAYS park the saw on a level surface with the engine ON/OFF switch in “OFF” position.

4.ENGINE AIR FILTER: Clean air filter 2 TO 3 times daily when DRY cutting.See Engine Owner’s Manual for detailed information.

5.ENGINE TANK & STRAINER: Clean every year/ or 300 hours.

6.FUEL LINE: Replace every two years/ or as necessary.

7.SPARK PLUG: Clean/adjust every 6 months/or 100 hours. Replace every year/ or 300 hours.

Bearing Lubrication Care

There are three (3) grease points (zerk fittings, Figure 23) on the FS 1 Concrete Saw.Use only Premium Lithium 12 based Grease, conforming to NLG1 Grade #2 consistency.

WARNING

Some maintenance operations may require the engine to be run. Ensure that the mainte-

nance area is well ventilated. Exhaust contains poisonous car- bon monoxide gas that can cause of unconsciousness and may result in DEATH

General Engine Care

1.ENGINE CHECK: Check daily for any oil and/or fuel leakage, thread nut & bolt tightness, and overall cleanliness.

2.ENGINE OIL: Check daily. Inspect with blade removed and saw frame level on a level surface. Keep the oil clean, and at the proper servicing level (Figure 8).DO NOT OVERFILL! SAE 10W30 of SG is recommended for general use.

3.ENGINE OIL CHANGE: Change engine oil the first month or 20 hours of operation.Then every 3 months/ or 50 HOURS

ALWAYS dispose of used oil in a responsible manner.

NOTEEnsure that the disposition of all hazardous waste is handled properly. Call your Recycling Center for information about recycling engine oil.

Figure 23. Zerk Fitting

1.BLADE SHAFT BEARINGS: Grease daily, see page 40, Blade Shaft Assembly.

When cutting DRY, lubricate

blade shaft bearings 2 to 3

NOTEtimes daily. The grease can provide an added protective seal for the bearings.

2.REAR AXLE: Grease daily, see page 38, Under Carriage Assembly.

General Cleanliness

Clean the machine daily. Remove all dust and slurry build up. If the saw is steam cleaned, ensure that lubrication is accom- plished AFTER steam cleaning operations.
