Husqvarna 50 manual Using the Proedge Series Blades

PROEDGE SERIES BLADES

The ProEdge Line of beveled diamond blades is especially designed for architectural scoring to replace labor-intensive hand tooling. These specialty blades are ideal for residential and commercial applications to chase standard joints for a beveled look. Chasing cuts using the ProEdge blades would begin the next day or later after the concrete is placed and control joints have been made. Choose the correct specification of ProEdge blade to suit your particular needs

USING THE PROEDGE SERIES BLADES

Follow the instructions for installing a Excel series blade and skid plate when installing a ProEdge blade.

NOTE:

The ProEdge blade requires its own unique skid plate to function properly.

Step 1

Adjust bevel depth of cut by loosening the depth adjust arm. Pull up on the lower guard until the proper amount of blade protrudes below the skid plate. (See figure below for proper depth).

Step 2

Set the depth adjust arm firmly against the depth stop bolt and tighten the depth adjust thumb screw to set the depth. Remove the guide wheel and reinstall with the shoulder against the guide arm (See illustration: Guide wheel installation).

Step 3

Line up the saw by pushing down on the saw lower the blade into the existing cut. Use the “V” notch on the front of the lower guard to fine tune alignment. Flip the lock-off button and squeeze the paddle switch to turn “ON” the saw. Allow the blade to reach maximum speed the rotate the saw down to plunge the blade into the concrete until the depth adjust arm bottoms down against the depth stop bolt.

Step 4

Push the saw forward to cut, keeping the guide wheel on the cut line. Maintain an even cutting speed for best results.
