SAFETY WARNINGS • Read and understand instructions before operating saw. • Always wear safety approved hearing, eye, head and respiratory protection. • Wear rubber work gloves to avoid contact with wet concrete which can cause serious skin irritation. • Keep all parts of your body away from blade and other moving parts. [. . . ] WARNING: Do not operate the saw unless all guards, safety equipment and the motor on/off switch are in place and operational!If in doubt, contact your ready mix supplier to help determine the aggregate hardness. When approaching a wall or obstruction, touch the guide wheel against the wall and then back up to release the guide. When the cut is complete, turn the handle quickly counter-clockwise until it stops. The motor will stop, the blade will raise and pressure will be applied to the rear back up wheel. Push down on the handle until about knee high and roll the saw off the concrete on the 2 rear wheels. Flip the safety switch to the OFF (red) position to avoid false starting. Periodically, clean any excess concrete from inside the blade guard and front diverter. Always clean the blade guard assembly thoroughly before storing the saw. Lightly sweep the cuttings parallel to the cut with a soft bristle broom. Do not walk on the joints or transport equipment across the joints until the concrete fully hardens.

Diamond blade – Inspect diamond blades daily for damage, cracks, secure fit to the arbor, loss of segments, warping or overheating. If any blade shows any of these problems, discard the blade and never use. Skid plate – Inspect the skid plate daily for damage, excessive wear in the blade slot, burrs on the concrete surface side, twisting and any movement when installed on the saw. Insure that the blade does not contact the skid plate and adjust if necessary. Cleaning – Clean the blade guard and bottom plate of any excess concrete build up after each use. Keep all openings and slots on the saw clean and open so air flows freely through the motor compartment to insure proper cooling. Use compressed air and blow out the back side of the motor where the air intake slots are located. Saw pivot – The saw box should be free to pivot without binding on concrete deposits. Wheels – Wheels should be wiped clean of sealers and concrete deposits. Plastic case – Keep plastic case clean as loose material can lodge in motor during transportation. Any other maintenance or repairs should be done by a competent mechanic or by Soff-Cut personnel only. Some of these are gasoline, carbon tetrachloride, chlorinated cleaning solvents, ammonia and household detergents that contain ammonia.
