FS 1 CONCRETE SAW — INSPECTION -BLADE PLACEMENT

The following steps should be

NOTEaccomplished before using the FS1 on any cutting surface.

Diamond Blade Placement Procedure

The FS1 is equipped with an Raise/Lower assembly that is supported by the following components (Figure 11):

Raise/Lower Ball Handle (1)

Actuating Arm Lever (2)

Depth Pointer Bar (3)

Raise/Lower Scale (4)

1.Set the engine ON/OFF switch to the OFF position.

2.Place the FS1 saw on a stable level working surface.

2.Grasp the raise/lower ball handle (1) and reorient the saw to its highest position by rotating the ball handle counter- clockwise while pulling back on the handle bars.

4.Lock this new position in place by maintaining back pressure on the handle bars while rotating the ball handle clockwise firmly against the actuating arm lever (2).

5.Lift up the blade guard cover to gain access to the diamond blade.

When removing or installing

NOTEa diamond blade, please note that the blade retaining nuts are left and right hand threaded.

6.Use the provided blade nut and blade shaft locking wrenches (Figure 10) to install the diamond blade. Also reference steps 1 through 7 on page 21.

7.When cutting, reference the cutting depth by viewing the depth pointer bar (3) in conjunction with the raise lower scale until the desired depth is achieved.

8.Always "lock in" the depth by firmly rotating the ball handle against the actuating arm lever.

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.

WARNING

ALWAYS make sure that the ball handle has been securely locked against the actuating arm lever to prevent blade depth creep.
