8.If the engine has started, slowly return the choke lever to the "OPEN" position. If the engine has not started repeat steps 1 through 9.

9.Squeeze the throttle lever trigger to release it from the half- throttle position.

OPERATION

WARNING

ALWAYS cut with the saw at FULLTHROTTLE. Attempting to cut with the saw at less than full throttle could cause the blade to bind or stop abruptly in the slab resulting in serious injury to the operator or others in the area.

Shut-down

1.Let the engine idle for 3-5 minutes.

2.Place the engine ON/OFF switch to the OFF position

3.Wait for the blade to stop spinning before handling the saw.

4.DO NOT touch the cutting blade it is very hot!, allow it to cool, severe burn condition exists.

WARNING

ALWAYS keep clear of rotating or moving parts while operating this equipment.

2.To begin sawing, lower the rotating blade allowing it to cut to the preset depth.

3.When blade has reached full cutting depth, slowly walk behind the saw at a rate that will allow the engine to operate without losing optimum RPM.

CAUTION

DO NOT try to cut faster than the blade will allow. Cutting too fast will cause the blade to rise up out of the cut. Improper cutting rate can decrease the life of the engine and blades.
