  • Page 12 SET-UP OPERATOR’S MANUAL CAUTION CAUTION CORRECT CHAIN TENSION All chains have a tendency to stretch when used. Diamond chains stretch more than wood cutting chains because of the abrasive materials they are cutting. If the chain is too tight, more power goes into turning the chain rather CORRECT CHAIN TENSION than into the cut.

  • Page 14: Operation

    OPERATION OPERATOR’S MANUAL PRE-CUT CHECKLIST CAUTION CAUTION To maximize the life of the cutting system, ensure that proper chain tension is maintained. If tension is too tight, it will lead to excessive chain stretch, and a lot of the saw’s power will be used to overcome friction. In severe cases the chain may not turn at all and can lead to chain breakage.
  • Page 15 OPERATION OPERATOR’S MANUAL PRE-CUT CHECKLIST, CONT. • Adequate Water Supply and Pressure: Minimum Flow: 1 gpm (4 lpm) Minimum Water Pressure: 20 psi (1.4 bar) Checking for water pressure without a pressure gauge: With the compressor off, attach water hose to the saw water connection. Pull the chain off to one side of the bar and turn on the water valve.
  • Page 16 OPERATION OPERATOR’S MANUAL WARNING WARNING If cutting pipe with PowerGrit® be sure the cut line stays open by providing proper pipe support. Also check for neighboring utilities or obstructions. Concrete is very heavy, 1 cubic foot (30 cubic cm) weighs 150 lbs (68 kg). Be sure to cut so that concrete cannot fall and injure operator or bystanders.
  • Page 17 OPERATION OPERATOR’S MANUAL CAUTION CAUTION Wear gloves when handling the bar and chain. Over time, these components can develop sharp edges and cause cuts. • When cutting reinforced concrete, be sure you are always cutting concrete as well as rebar. This will prevent the segments from glazing over and keep the diamonds exposed.
