Verify that the lever is disengaged or released, and the Vanguard
5.6
engine switch and fuel valve lever are in the OFF position. Make sure
blade is completely stopped.
CAUTION: Running the MC-800 generates heat in the engine, blade and
blade guard. Do not touch these components without wearing proper heat
protecting work gloves.

Remove bolt in the blade guard holding bracket. Hold the blade
guard firmly and raise guard up into the holding bracket. Reinsert bolt in

Remove both blade change wrenches from the MC-800 handle.
Install dry cut diamond blade. See section 7.1 for detailed instructions
on removing and installing blades. Inspect diamond blades for damage
at least twice daily and before each use. Damaged diamond blades are
hazardous and should never be used on a MC-800.
TO AVOID INJURY.
Always inspect saw blades be-
fore use. Replace all cracked
or damaged blades.

Replace the wrenches in the holding bracket on the handle.
Tighten the wrench-clamping knob.
5.10
Check the belt tension each day before starting work. Check
after the first hour of operation if the MC-800 or belt is new. See section
7.3 for detailed instructions on checking and adjusting the belt tension.
5.11
Move the front and rear pointer arms down towards the
ground. Turn the height adjustment handle clockwise until the blade
touches the ground. Now turn the adjustment handle counter-clock-
wise one complete 360° turn. This will raise the blade slightly off the
ground.
5.12
Using the marked chalk line or any straight line on the ground,
align the blade with the line. On the pointer wheels, loosen the adjust-
ment nuts and align the wheels with the same chalk line. Push the MC-
800 along the line to verify the alignment is straight. See Figure 11 and
Figure 12.
