Husqvarna MC1809R, MC1809H, MC1805B, MC1813H, MC1813R, MC1805G To Maneuver the Saw, Tilt Version

WARNINGS!!!

DO turn the “ON/OFF” switch to the “OFF” position prior to connecting the machine to the power source.

DO make sure electric powered machines are plugged into a properly grounded circuit.

DO make sure power cords are the proper size and in good condition.

DO follow all electrical codes in your area.

DO use correct voltage and proper extension cords. Never carry tool by cord or yank it to disconnect it from receptacle. Keep cord away from heat, oil and sharp edges.

DO disconnect tools from power source when not in use, before servicing and when changing accessories.

DO carefully maintain and clean for better and safer performance. Follow instructions for changing accessories. Inspect tool cords periodically and, if damaged, have repaired by authorized service facility.

DO NOT lay power cords in or near the water.

DO NOT leave this machine unattended with the motor running.

DO NOT replace the motor with any motor that does not have a special grounding connection.

2.Electric motors of any make can burn out when the voltage supply falls 10% below the voltage rating of the motor. Use proper heavy duty fuses in the circuit. Use No. 8 wire for extension cord lengths up to 100 ft. long. Under-sized wires can cause motor burnout. Check the voltage at the motor when the saw is cutting.

3.Single phase concrete saw motors are equipped with manual reset overloads. When the overload trips, turn the switch to the OFF position. Allow the motor to cool 5 to 10 minutes, then push the reset button. A click indicates reset.

7 To Maneuver the Saw

•Set the handle bar height to a comfortable position.

•Raise the Blade (2E) as high as possible so that the Blade (2E) will not strike pavement when maneuvering.

8 To Start Sawing

•Follow all of the instructions outlined above.

•Open the Water Valve (1A) FULL open. Check the water to verify full flow, then adjust for proper amount of water on the blade BEFORE you lower the Blade.

Test for adequate water supply [2-1/2 to 5 gal/ min (10 to 20 lit./min)]. Low water flow will cause damage to diamond blades.

If water supply is interrupted, stop cutting immediately.

Screw Feed Version:

•Lower the blade into the cut by pulling up on the Depth Control Lock (1E) and slowly turning the Hand Wheel COUNTER-CLOCKWISE. When the desired depth of cut is reached, push Depth Control Lock down to lock it in the hand wheel.

E-Z Tilt Version:

•The blade on this saw may be lowered into the concrete by loosening the lock handle and pushing forward on the handle bar. The weight of the saw will assist when lowering the blade. The blade is held at the desired depth by tightening the lock handle on the lock bar.

•During cutting, DO NOT exert excessive side pres- sure on the Handle Bars to attempt to “STEER” the saw. Use only enough pressure to follow the previ- ously marked line.

•If the saw should stall for any reason, (close the air valve on the air models and turn the power switch off on the electric models) raise the blade completely out of the cut before starting your power source again!

•When lowering the Blade (2E) into a partially made cut, the blade must be perfectly aligned within the cut before starting to saw again. DO NOT FORCE the Blade (2E) into the material by lowering the Blade too fast, or by propelling the saw too fast.

9 Stopping the Saw

•Screw Feed Version:

Raise the blade out of the cut by pulling up on the depth control lock and slowly turning the hand wheel clockwise. Raise the blade (2E) high enough out of the cut to clear the pavement when maneuvering the saw.

•E-Z Tilt Version:

Raise the blade out of the cut by loosening the lock handle and pulling back on the handle bar. Raise the blade (2E) high enough out of the cut to clear the pavement when maneuvering the saw when tightening the lock handle.

•Turn off the Water Valve (1A).

•Turn the Engine Throttle to the IDLE position.

•STOP the engine by turning the Engine Switch (1D) to the OFF position.
