    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.
  • Page 13 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.
  • Page 14 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.

Symptom Possible Cause Corrective Action...
  • Page 30: Depth Control

    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.
