Diamond Blades

Selecting the diamond blade TYPE and GRADE defines how the blade will perform both in cutting speed and blade life.

Selection of the proper diamond blade consists of:

zMaterial to be Cut

zType of Saw Being Used

zHorsepower of Saw

zHardness Characteristics of the Material

zPerformance Expectations

BLADE PLACEMENT

WARNING

Failure to thoroughly inspect the diamond blade for operational safety could result in damage to the blades or the saw and may cause injury to the user or others in the operating area.

Factors for sawing economy:

zType of Blade

zDepth of Cut

zSawing Speed

zCharacteristics of the Material Being Cut

Blade Speed

A diamond blade’s performance is directly connected to specific peripheral (rim) speeds.

The following shaft rotational speeds have been factory set to ensure optimum blade performance.

zSP1 18” Capacity - 2,836 RPM.

WARNING

Operating saw blades at rotational speeds greater than those specified by the manu- facture can cause blade damage, and may injure the user or others in the operating area.

1.Engine OFF - Set the ENGINE ON/OFF switches to the "OFF" position to prevent accidental starting.

2.Blade Guard - Pivot the blade guard front cover all the way back. The guard tension spring will keep the front cover in position.

3.Blade Hex Nut - Unscrew the spindle nut (right side loosens clockwise and tightens counter-clockwise while the left side loosens counter-clockwise and tightens clockwise. DO NOT overtighten the nut (approximately 45-50 ft. lb/61-68 N/m) when finalizing the assembly.

4.Outside Blade Flange (Collar) - Ensure that the outside blade flange is placed flush against the diamond blade. The inside surface of the flange must be free of debris and permit a tight closure on the surface of the blade core.

5.Diamond Blade - Ensure that the proper diamond blade has been selected for the job. Pay close attention to the directional arrows on the blade. The blade's operating directional arrows must point in a "down-cutting" direction to perform correctly. When placing the blade onto the spindle, ensure the arbor hole of the blade matches the diameter of the shaft.
