DIAMOND BLADE SAFETY

■Use appropriate steel centered diamond blades manufactured for use on concrete saws.

■Always inspect diamond blades before each use. The blade should exhibit no cracks, dings, or flaws in the steel centered core and/or rim. Center (arbor) hole must be undamaged and true.

■Examine blade flanges for damage, excessive wear and cleanliness before mounting blade. Blade should fit snugly on the shaft and against the inside/outside blade flanges.

■Ensure that blade is marked with an operating speed greater than the blade shaft speed of the saw.

■Only cut the material that is specified by the diamond blade. Readthespecificationsofthediamondbladetoensuretheproper tool has been matched to the material being cut.

■Always keep blade guards in place. Exposure of the diamond blade must not exceed 180 degrees.

■Ensure that the diamond blade does not come into contact with the ground or surface during transportation. DO NOT drop the diamond blade on ground or surface.

■The engine governor is designed to permit maximum engine speed in a no-load condition. Speeds that exceed this limit may cause the diamond blade to exceed the maximum safe allowable speed.

■Ensure that the blade is mounted for proper operating direction.

SAWTRANSPORTATION SAFETY

■Use the lifting bail and appropriate lifting equipment to ensure the safe movement of the saw.

■DO NOTuse the handle bars and/or front pointer as lifting points.
