FS2 CONCRETE SAW — INSPECTION -GUARDS, COVERS AND V-BELTS

Guards and Covers Check

WARNING

NEVER operate the saw without blade guards and covers (Figures 11 and 12) in place. DO NOT operate with the front of the blade guard raised. The blade exposure cannot exceed 180 degrees during operations. Adhere to the safety guidelines of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) B7.1 and

B7.5.

Figure 11. Blade Guard

CHECK the following on the "blade guard":

■Check to ensure the capacity of the blade guard matches the diameter of your diamond blade.

■Check that the guard seats firmly upon the bayonet fitting of the saw frame.

■Check that the spring tensioned front cover of the guard is firmly seated with the rear section of the guard, and there are no gaps.

■Check the fit of the water hoses about the two water manifolds (14" guard). NEVER lift the blade guard while cutting.

■Check that the flood water tubes and water jets are clear and open. Test the water supply for pressure and flow (to both sides of the blade) before sawing operations.

CHECK the following on the "blade flange cover":

■Check that the flange cover seats firmly upon the bayonet fitting of the saw frame prior to operation.

■This flange cover is to be in place when cutting from either the right or left side of the saw.

V-belts and Cover

CAUTION:

NEVER attempt to check the V-belt with the engine running because severe injury can occur. Keep fingers, hands, hair and clothing away from all moving parts.

V-belts Alignment and Tensioning

This concrete saw is equipped with three premium V-belts that have been aligned and tensioned by factory personnel. All three V-belts MUST be installed for proper operation of the saw. Failure to run the saw with less than three belts may damage the saw or equipment.

Use the following procedure to check the alignment of V-belts:

1.Remove the 3 bolts that secure the V-belt cover (Figure 13) to the saw frame.

Figure 13. V-Belt Cover

2.Check uniform parallelism (Figure 14) of V-belts and pulley

(sheaves). Use a straight edge or machinists's square against both pulleys and adjust both pulleys until equally aligned.
