•Set the Frame Assembly (1) on a flat surface or on a Husqvarna folding stand.

•Install the Water Pan Assembly (2) between the four Pan Guides (A) on the Frame Assembly (1). Locate the Pan (2) with the Drain Plug (B) at the operating end with the two Stops (C) located on the bottom of the Pan (2) straddling the front leg of the Frame (1). The Water Pan Assembly (2) should slide freely back and forth on the Guides (A) with little lateral move- ment. Adjust Guides if needed.

Install the Cutting Head Assembly (1):

1.Set the Cutting Head Assembly (3) on the pivot bar up between the Set Collar (U) and the ad- justable Cutting Head Position Limiter (V). See Figure 2. These components have been pre-set at the factory to align the blade with the slot in the center of the cart; this is adjustable.

See Alignment Procedures, section 8.

2.Using the 5/16” Capscrews and Lockwashers provided, install the two Bearing Caps (D) to the bottom of the Cutting Head (3). To secure the Cutting Head (3) to the pivot bar, tighten the Capscrews with a 1/2” wrench or use the Wrench

(E) provided. For plunge-cutting, leave the Bear-

ing Caps (D) free enough to allow the Cutting Head (3) limited movement up or down.

3.Insert the Locking Knob (F) with 5/16” flat- washer through the slotted Lockbar (G) into the tapped hole in the belt guard. This is used to set the cutting depth of the blade. See sec- tion 5.

Set-up with the Torsion Spring (W):

With the Cutting Head installed on the pivot bar, rotate the Torsion Spring (W) until the inside spring loop (W1) engages around the lower edge of the motor platform. Loosen the 5/16” Capscrew (X) in the spring Tension Adjuster

(Y)and move it to engage the Roll Pin (Z) into the outside spring loop (W2). Set the desired tension for your plunge cutting and tighten the Capscrew (X) to secure the Tension Adjuster to the pivot bar. Use the flats on the back of the Tension Adjuster with a adjustable wrench if extra tension is needed.

Water Pump Assembly (5) Set-up:

Assembly (L) from their carton. Thread the Hose Barb

(J) on the water pump outlet, hand tighten.

3.Set the Water Pump Assembly (5) in the deep end of the pan beneath the belt guard. Note:

The water pump inlet screen must be sub- merged in order to properly pick up water.

4.Place the Water Tube Assembly (L) to the back of the Blade Guard (M) and insert the two 1/4” plastic nozzles (L2) into the two Ports (N) on the side of the Blade Guard (J). Route water tubing sa as to prevent interference with the Cart (4).

5.Insert the male plug into the Receptacle on the motor. The Water Pump (H) will start when the motor is turned on. For dry cutting, the water pump should be unplugged or removed to pre- vent damage to the pump.

NOTE: THE MOTOR WATER PUMP OUTLET IS NOT TO BE USED AS A GENERAL PURPOSE CONVENIENCE OUTLET. USE FOR CONNECTION OF THE SUPPLIED WATER PUMP ONLY.

WATER PUMP SAFETY GUIDELINES

Always plug the saw power cord into a GFCI outlet when using. If a GFCI type outlet is not available, use a plug-in type GFCI plugged into a properly grounded outlet. Do not use

any temporary plug adapters.

•The water pump is equipped with a ground electrical plug, to reduce the risk of possible shock. Be sure to connect to a properly grounded type receptacle.

•Never pick the water pump up out of the water when it is plugged in.

•DO NOT EVER use the water pump to pump any- thing but water.

•Never service the pump when it is still plugged in.

•Never let the pump operate dry. It is self-cooled by pumping water. Dry use will cause the pump to fail.

•Maintain regularly and clean out debris from intake screen.

•Check the power cord for nicks or frays and never try to alter the power cord in any way.

Installation & Removal of Cutting Blade:

Always set the Motor Switch to OFF prior to mounting the blade.

Be sure you are using the correct blade for the material being cut. For example, blades are available for cutting materials such as wall tile, quarry tile, marble, slate and similarly hard materials. For the best results, always use genuine Husqvarna diamond blades. Contact your nearest dealer to select the correct blade for your spe- cific cutting needs.
