SAFETY
WARNING
THE FOLLOWING SYMBOL APPLIES TO ALL THE ITEMS LISTED ON THIS PAGE
A potentially hazardous situation exists which, if not avoided,
could result in death or serious injury.
Diamond chain breakage can result in high-speed ejection of parts, which can result in death
or serious personal injury to operators or bystanders. The items listed below are critical to
minimizing the risk of diamond chain breakage and injury.
• DO NOT operate the saw with a damaged, modified, broken, or missing side cover,
bottom guard, or guard flap. The side cover, bottom guard, and guard flap provides
protection against contact with moving parts, ejected debris, broken diamond chain,
thrown water and concrete slurry.
• DO NOT operate the saw with loose, missing, damaged or improperly repaired parts.
• DO NOT insert the saw into a slot narrower than the diamond chain segments. Rapid
pushback might occur. Reference: Most diamond segments are .225 inches (5.72 mm)
wide.
• DO NOT use damaged, modified or improperly repaired diamond chain.
• DO NOT run the saw upside-down. Concrete debris can fly back into the operator’s face.
• DO NOT cut ductile iron pipe with the saw. Segment loss or diamond chain breakage may
occur.

SAFETY
CAUTION
THE FOLLOWING SYMBOL APPLIES TO ALL ITEMS LISTED ON THIS PAGE
A potentially hazardous situation exists which, if not avoided,
may result in minor or moderate injury or property damage.
• Always turn the saw OFF when performing maintenance on the saw including diamond
chain tensioning.
• Never use equipment that is not functioning properly. Have the saw repaired by qualified
service personnel.
• Turn engine OFF before refueling. Keep away from open flame. Always provide adequate
ventilation when handling fuel. Move the saw at least 10 feet (3 m) away from refueling
area before starting.
• Diamond chains require a minimum water pressure of 20 psi (1.4 bar). Insufficient water
supply may result in excessive wear to the diamond chain, which can lead to loss of
strength and diamond chain breakage.
• Never start the saw unless the guide bar, diamond chain and side cover are properly
installed.
GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Always wear protective clothing, including hard hat, eye protection, hearing protection, and
gloves.
• Avoid loose fitting clothing.
• Perform safety checks before starting each day.
• Always operate tool with solid footing and with both hands on cut-off saw.
• Remove or control slurry to prevent slippery conditions while cutting.
• Be sure there are no obstructions (plumbing, electrical conduit, air ducts) and no unnecessary
people present.
• Set up a well-marked safety zone with a roped boundary and clear signs.
• Provide adequate ventilation when working in an enclosed area. Breathing exhaust gases is
dangerous.
• To avoid electrocution, check for live electrical wiring near cutting area.

SAFETY
IMPORTANT
THE FOLLOWING SYMBOL APPLIES TO ALL ITEMS LISTED ON THIS PAGE
A potential situation exists which, if not avoided, may result in
product or property damage.
Note: The saw is equipped with a two-stroke engine and must always be run using a mixture
of gasoline and ICS two-stroke engine oil (25:1). It’s important to accurately measure the
amount of oil to be mixed to ensure that correct mixture is obtained. When mixing small
amounts of fuel, even small inaccuracies can drastically affect the ratio of the mixture.
• Use high quality, unleaded gasoline with a minimum octane rating of 90. If lower octane
gasoline is used, engine temperature will increase which will result in a piston seizure.
• Fuel mixture: 25:1 gasoline/oil mixture. Incorrect fuel mixture will cause piston seizure.
• Use ICS®brand two-stroke engine oil, or other high quality 2-stroke oil that has been
formulated for air cooled power equipment.
• Never use two-stroke oil formulated for water-cooled two-cycle engines, such as
outboard motor oil.
• Never use motor oil intended for four-stroke engines.
ENGINE BREAK-IN
• It is very important to break-in a new engine to “seat” all moving parts, especially the
piston rings.
• To break-in the engine, run one full tank of 25:1 fuel at idle, cycling the throttle every
5 to 10 minutes to prevent loading.
• Failure to break-in an engine may result in piston seizure.

SET-UP
GUIDE BAR AND DIAMOND CHAIN INSTALLATION
STEP 7
Drive links should be in the bar groove but
not completely engaged.
STEP 9
Hold the guide bar nose up & manually pull
the chain across the top of the guide bar
away from the saw. See Note 1
STEP 8
The tensioning scrench should fit between
the guide bar and the chain drive links.
STEP 10
Continue to lift up on the nose of the guide
bar and firmly tighten the side cover nuts.
See Note 2.
Chain
Tension
Note 1: Do not “over tension” the diamond chain. Loss of power will result. It is normal for the
drivelinks to hang underneath the guide bar. The diamond chain should be snug but be able to be
pulled around the guide bar by hand.
Note 2: To prevent chain tensioner breakage, be sure the side cover nuts are tightened to
approximately 20 ft-lbs (27Nm).
