FS 1 CONCRETE SAW — INITIAL START-UP

8.Grasp the starter grip (Figure 21) and slowly pull it out.The resistance becomes the hardest at a certain position, corre- spondingtothecompressionpoint.Pullthestartergripbriskly and smoothly for starting.

CAUTION:

zDO NOT pull the starter rope all the way to the end.

zDO NOT release the starter rope after pulling. Allow it to rewind as soon as possible.

Stopping the Engine

NEVER stop the engine while the blade is in the cut, except for extreme emergencies. A sudden stoppage of the engine at high speed while in a cut could damage the blade and/or saw, and may cause injury to the user or other in the operating area.

1.Place the throttle lever (Figure 20) in the slow position, and listen for the engine speed to decrease.

2.Place the engine ON/OFF switch (Figure 18) to the “OFF” position.

3.Place the fuel valve lever (Figure 17) to the “OFF” position.

Maneuvering The Saw

WARNING

Figure 21. Starter Grip

9.If the engine has started, slowly return the choke lever (Figure 19) to the CLOSED position. If the engine has not started repeat steps 1 through 5.

10.Before the saw is placed into operation, run the engine for several minutes. Check for fuel leaks, and noises that would associate with a loose guard and/or covers.

11.All sawing is done at full throttle. Your engine governor has been set at the factory to ensure an optimum speed setting.

The blade is spinning whenever the engine is running.

Raise the blade high above the surface when maneuvering the saw. Damage to the blade and/or saw may occur if the blade strike the pavement.

CAUTION:

zNEVER stop the engine in the cut while working at high speeds, except for extreme emergencies.
