2.
All cuts must be made in steps. The first cut should be 2-3" deep. Each following
cut can add up to 6" depth until the wall is cut through or the next size blade is
needed.
• If the cut runs lengthwise through a reinforcing bar, cut completely through it in
one pass to prevent the blade from deviating in the cut and jamming.
• Attempting to cut too deep in one pass will result in a poor quality cut and may
cause the blade to jam.
• When the blade diameter exceeds 36", you will have to mount the blade on the saw
off the track, or place the blade in the cut then flex it slightly to fit it over the saw
arbor.
3.
At the end of the cut, rotate the arm deeper into the cut or take it out of the cut
while the blade is still running. Do not stop the blade in the cut.
4.
When the cut is complete, rotate the arm away from the cut and shut off the power
unit and water supply. Remove the blade guard and blade from the saw if
required. Take the saw off the track by pushing the removable rollers to the "out"
position, being careful it does not fall when the last roller is released. Set the saw
in a safe place while you move the track for the next cut.
5.
When the final cut is complete, turn off the power unit and water supply, relieve
the pressure in the hoses, and disconnect the hoses from the saw. Wash down the
saw to remove all concrete slurry. Remove the blade guard and blade and store
everything in a secure location.

HORIZONTAL BOTTOM CUT

1.
If a horizontal bottom cut is needed, you should make it first and drive in shims to
support the slab while the other cuts are made. This will prevent the slab from
pinching the blade during this cut.
2.
As you make additional cuts, add shims or restraining bars to keep the slab in
place.
3.
When making the final cut, the track should be mounted on the surrounding wall,
rather than the section to be removed. If this is not possible, shims and retaining
bars must be used to hold the slab in position.
4.
When the final cut is complete, turn off the power unit and water supply, relieve
the pressure in the hoses, and disconnect the hoses from the saw. Wash down the
saw to remove all concrete slurry. Remove the blade guard and blade and store
everything in a secure location.
