BLADE PLACEMENT

4.Diamond Blade - Ensure that the proper diamond blade has been selected for the job. Pay close attention to the directional arrows on the blade. The blade's operating directional arrows must point in a "down-cutting" direction to perform correctly. When placing the blade onto the blade shaft, ensure the arbor hole of the blade matches the diameter of the shaft.

WARNING

Dropping or forcing the blade onto the cutting surface can severely damage the diamond blade and may cause serious damage to the saw and bodily harm.

Blade Removal and Replacement

1.Ensure the Engine Shutdown switch (Item 22, Fig.3) and the ON/OFF switch on the engine are turned to the "OFF" position.

2.Place the FCG16HA Saw on a stable level working surface.

3.Ensure the blade is raised and the raise/lower rod is locked into position.

4.Raise the blade by appling a downward pressure on the handlebars to raise the blade and allow the raise/lower rod to drop into the "raised-position" slot.
