FS2 CONCRETE SAW — GENERAL INFORMATION

TACHOMETER/ HOURMETER

Aself-powered digital Tachometer/Hourmeter keeps true running RPM and time.The operation is triggered by an external lead wrapped around the spark plug of the engine. When the engine is running, the display will read the RPM of the engine.

When the engine is off, the display will switch to run time (initially in minutes), and then switching to hours after the first hour of operation. This instrument provides quartz crystal solid-state technology, and is built with a custom chip and die bonding construction for maximum durability.

Figure 6 shows the location of the components of the FS2 Console.The function of each component is described below:

1.Horizontal Depth Feed Gauge – Indicates the blade cutting depth in inches. The scale allows for orientation of 12, 14, 16 and 18 inch diamond blades.

Depending on the blade diameter selected, the steel pointer head will indicate zero inches when the blade is just touching the surface, positive numbers when below the surface, and negative numbers when above the surface. The "Depth Feed Gauge" is calibrated in inches and is set at the factory

2.3-Way Water Valve – 3 position selector valve, OFF, Mist or Flood.

3.Raise Lower Crank Handle – Raises or lowers the cutting blade.This handle is used in conjunction with the horizontal depth gauge.

4.DigitalTachometer/Hourmeter – Indicates engine RPM's and operational hours saw has been in use.

5.Engine ON/OFF Switch – Pull this switch to permit the engine to be started by pull rope. Push the switch inward to stop the engine.
