GENERAL INFORMATION

MP1 MASONRY SAW

The MP1 masonry saw is designed for vigorous wet-cutting masonry applications.The heavy-duty aluminum conveyor cart and ball bearing roller wheels ensure material stability and smooth travel. In addition a reinforced jig-welded steel frame provides rigidity for cutting accuracy and long service life.

This saw is available with either an electric motor or a gasoline engine. The heavy duty electric motors are available in either

1.5HP or 2.0 HP with overload protection. Each motor can operate at either 115 VAC or 230 VAC.The electric motor input voltage is selectable by means of a toggle switch. Always make sure that the input voltage being supplied to the motor matches the position of the voltage selector toggle switch located on top of the motor.

If desired, the MP1 saw can be configured with a 5.5 HP Honda GX160 gasoline engine.

All MP1 models include a high flow water pump, cutting jig, water hoses and associated plumbing to enable the operator to begin wet cutting.

DRY CUTTING APPLICATIONS

The MP1 masonry saw is shipped from the factory for wet-cutting saw applications, however it can be used for dry-cutting saw applications (see dry-cutting saw applications in this manual). The most import thing to remember is to disconnect the water pump. The water pump is cooled by the flow of water, and failure to disconnect the pump (when running dry) will cause pump failure. NEVER! have the water pump engaged when dry cutting applications are involved.

BLADE APPLICATIONS

This saw has been designed to incorporate the use of Diamond Blades™ as the cutting tool.The optimum performance of this saw is best evidenced by using 14-inch (356 mm) Diamond Blades™ that match the material being cut.Ask your dealer, or call MULTIQUIP about your specific cutting application.

ACCESSORIES/REPLACEMENT PARTS

If desired the MP1 masonry saw can be equipped with a scissors type support stand P/N TRAK14SS, this stand is ideal when the saw needs to be transported and placed on a secure reliable platform.
