I. PREPARATION A. Safety Precautions Important! The following safety precautions must always be observed. Hazard Symbols Fuel (gasoline) is extremely flammable and its vapors can explode if ignited. Store gasoline only in approved containers, in well-ventilated, unoccupied approved areas, and away from sparks or flames.
Dust and Silica Warning Grinding/cutting/drilling of masonry, concrete, metal and other materials can generate dust, mists and fumes containing chemicals known to cause serious or fatal injury or illness, such as respiratory disease, cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. If you are unfamiliar with the risks associated with the particular process and/or material being cut or the composition of the tool being used, review the material safety data sheet and/or consult your employer, the material manufacturer/supplier, governmental agencies such as OSHA and...

1. Before mounting any blade on the saw, the blade should be inspected for any damage which might have occurred during shipment, handling or previous use. 2. The blade collars and arbors should be cleaned and examined for damage before mounting the blade. 3.
I. PREPARATION B. Assembly The C914P compact concrete saw is shipped completely assembled and ready for use except for Handle Bar, Diamond Blade, Gasoline, and Engine Oil. Inspect the saw for shipping damage. If any damage is found, contact the shipper immediately and file a freight claim.

Handle Bar Assembly Handle Bar Attachment Hardware Handle Bar Attachment Hardware Handle Bar Assembly Level the cutting frame and check the engine oil level and add if required (See Engine Manual) and add fuel (See Engine Manual). NOTE: Do not install the blade until it is time to use the saw.
D. Engine Precautions Prior to attempting to operate the engine, read the information contained in the engine owner's manual. An engine owner’s manual is supplied with every gasoline powered concrete saw. 1. Check Oil: Add oil if low. Refer to the engine owner's manual for the recommended SAE viscosity grades.
II. OPERATION A. Blade Installation 1. Disconnect the spark plug. 2. Pull the Blade Guard Locking Pin Way from the Blade Guard and Pivot the Blade Guard out of the Way see Figure: Blade Guard Locking Pin for details. NOTE: The Blade Guard Locking Pin is under spring tension and will automatically move towards the Blade Guard, if it does not immediately replace the Blade Guard Locking Pin before using the saw.

1” (25.4mm) and a maximum core thickness of 1/8” (3.1mm) see Figure: Blade Installation for details. NOTE: Maximum 14” (350mm) Blade can be used with the C914P, if the blade does not fit under the Blade Guard then the diameter is greater than 14” (350mm). ALL Diamond Blades have a direction of rotation indicated on the blade either, install the blade so that the direction of rotation is clock wise.

7. Slide the outside blade shaft collar onto the blade shaft. The drive pin on the outside collar must project through the drive pin hole in the blade and into the inside collar. 8. Tighten the blade shaft nut (counter-clockwise) securely against the outside collar. See Figure: Blade Installed on C914P for details.

ON position. Never Transport a machine with the blade installed. C. Water Supply The C914P is designed for use with either a ¾” Garden Hose Fitting and pressurized water source or by using the included Water Tank. Water Tank Cap...
3. Follow ALL instructions under the Section “D. Operating The Saw” Water Tank source: The C914P included Water Tank is designed to provide some dust control for when a Pressurized Water source is not available. The Water Tank also increases the machine overall weight which assist at cutting at deeper depths.
1-1/2 to 2 inches until the desired depth of cut is reached this is known as Step Cutting. The C914P has a 4-5/8” (117.5mm) with a 14” (355.6mm) blade many blades that are marketed as a 14” blade are 350mm (13-3/4”) which will produce shallower cuts due to the overall diameter NOT...
III. MAINTENANCE A. Engine Follow the below schedule for engine maintenance. NOTE: Check the Honda Engine manual that came with the engine for any changes to the maintenance schedule. If the charts have any differences, follow the chart in the Honda Engine Manual.
Page 22
Always refer to the engine manual for more detailed information on checking the oil, changing oil, and oil capacity, air filter changes, and fuel type to use. Use only Honda air filters. Do not clean the air filter with gasoline or other flammable solvents.
To adjust the C914P Belt Tension: The C914P uses a simple dual tensioning bolt system for the belt tensioning. The Belt Tensioning is made by two (2) pusher Screws which can be found in front of the Engine see Figure: C914P Belt Tensioning System for details.
Page 25
Tools Required: 17mm Open End Wrench 17mm Socket and Socket Wrench 1. Review the locations of the C914P Belt Tensioning system before proceeding. (See Figure: C914P Belt Tensioning System on the previous page). 2. Remove the Belt Guard by loosening and removing the two (2) M10 Acorn Nuts Belt Guard Retaining Hardware sets.

Check the belt tension frequently during the first day of operation. Check the belt tension periodically thereafter and make any necessary adjustments. Belt Alignment: 1. Review the locations of the C914P Belt Tensioning system before proceeding. (See Figure: C914P Belt Tensioning System on page 15).
Main Causes of Belt Failures: Premature Belt failure can be attributed to the following issues: Tension (too much or too little), Pulley Misalignment, Damaged Pulleys, Improper Handling or Storage, Incorrect Blade Specification for Material Being Cut, and Cutting Too Deep. Symptom Possible Cause Corrective Action...
E. Depth Control The depth control (raising screw) consists of a threaded rod, which feeds into a steel nut. In order to keep the two parts working smoothly it is necessary to keep the rod free from dirt and sludge as much as possible. Cleaning the threaded rod with a rag after each use will prevent sludge from collecting in the tube assembly and protect the threads.
Page 31
lubrication lithium base grease is recommended. When rotating the Hand Wheel and resistance is felt STOP rotating, over rotation can create great forces which can damage the Raise Screw Bearing housing. F. Inspections and Cleaning For long life and better machine performance follow the inspection and cleaning schedule below.
3. Wherever alternate parts are shown due to product improvement, inspect the part you have and provide additional description as necessary. 4. Specify mode of shipping desired, such as, parcel post, truck, UPS, FedEx, best way, etc. For the nearest Norton Clipper distributor call 254-918-2310 Common Replacement Parts Description NOTES...
