FS 1 CONCRETE SAW — MAINTENANCE

V-Belt Tension Check

Check tension after first day of operation, then weekly/or 25 hours. Replace as required (see Figure 16). NEVER operate with less than 2 belts.

The FS 1 is equipped with (2) premium A-27 V-belts for the 14- inch model and (3) premimum A-27 V-belts belts for the 18-inch model which will provide optimum torque transfer.

The saw must be operated with all V-belts, and must be adjusted collectively and properly to be effective.

The V-belt adjustment of the FS 1 has been factory set utilizing precision standards. For V-belt adjustments only, see page 23, V-belts alignment tensioning section.

V-Belt Replacement

To replace V-belts perform the following procedure: Reference Figure 27 unless otherwise noted.

1.Remove the belt guard, Figure 14.

2.Loosen the engine adjustment bolts (1).

3.Position the engine to allow for slack in the V-belts, (2).

4.Remove the worn V-belt from the blade shaft and engine pulleys.

5.Install the new V-belts by looping them around the blade shaft and engine pulleys.

6.Tighten the new V-belts by collectively repositioning the engine by tightening the engine adjustment bolts.

7.Re-install the V-belt guard.
