Operation

Before cutting

Enclose the area to be cut so that unauthorised persons
can not be injured or disturb the operator.
Check that the blade guard is not damaged or broken. A
broken or damaged blade guard must never be used.
Check the oil level in the cutting unit. Adjust the speed
valve on the saw motor to the correct position, depending
on the blade diameter. (See the Cutting capacity table).
CAUTION
A higher speed than the recommended speed
can result in personal injury and damage to
the equipment.
If cutting is to begin in another position than where the
saw unit is located, run the saw unit to the start position.

Sawing

Always start by cutting a pilot cut. This is done by feeding
the blade 3-7 cm (1.2"-2.8"). Now make the pilot cut. The
cut should not be made at maximum speed, but with care
in order to obtain a straight cut and with that a basis for
the next cut.
When the pilot cut is finished, a deeper cut can be made.
The depth of these is determined from instance to
instance and depends on factors such as hardness of the
concrete, existence of reinforcing bar, etc.
As the rail is symmetrical, the saw unit can be turned to
make a new cut on the other side of the rail. The c-c
measurement will then be 328 mm. In this way a cut piece
is obtained that is in an easily handled size, making it
easier to remove from the workplace.
Remark
When the saw's is turned on the rail, the water
jet will be positioned away from the blade and
will spray in the opposite direction, possibly up
towards the ceiling.

Stop cutting
Once cutting is completed, remove the blade from the wall
and shut down the blade rotation and the water flow.
Shut down the hydraulic unit.

After cutting

Cleaning
The saw should be cleaned once cutting is finished. It is
important to clean all the saw equipment. It is a good idea
to disconnect the water hose from the pivot arm and use
this to wash down the saw unit, rail, blade guard, wall
mounting. If necessary you can also use a dish-brush or
the like to clean the equipment. Do not use a high
pressure washer to clean the saw.
Dismantling the saw
1. Allow the motor to stop completely.
2. Shut off and disconnect the incoming water to the
hydraulic unit.
3. Disconnect the incoming mains cable from the
hydraulic unit.
4. Disconnect the hydraulic hoses and the water hose
from the saw unit.
5. The other steps are done in the reverse order to
assembling.
