CAUTION: The blade depth is approximate and not exact. Many vari-
ables affect the exact blade depth such as the exact diameter of a worn
diamond blade. If an accurate depth must be cut, install the blade to be
used with the engine in the OFF position. Place the MC-800 in a secure
position that allows the blade to overhang and be visibly measured at
full blade depth. An example would be blocking the wheels with the
engine in the OFF position and lowering the MC-800 blade along side a
street curb. This will allow a measurement from the bottom of the blade
to the top of the curb.
Hold the blade guard firmly and remove the bolt in the blade

guard holding bracket. Lower the blade guard down until the 2" caster
wheel touches work surface. Reinsert bolt in the blade guard holding
bracket for future use.
5.15
Make sure the blade guard caster wheel and white dust
urethane seal at the blade guard base are firmly touching the work
surface. See section 7.2 for detailed instructions on adjusting the dust
urethane seal and urethane seal guard caster wheel.
WARNING: Breathable silica may be generated by use of this product.
Silica can cause severe and permanent lung damage, cancer, and other
serious diseases. Do not breath the dust. Do not rely on your sight
or smell to determine if the dust is in the air. Silica may be in the air
without a visible dust cloud. If air monitoring equipment for silica is not
provided by your employer at your work site, you MUST wear appropriate
respiratory protection when using or servicing the machine. Consult your
employer and OSHA regarding the appropriate respiratory protection.
5.16
Slide the 3" diameter vacuum hose over the connector and
tighten the worm drive hose clamp. Pull firmly on the hose to verify the
connection will not slide off.
5.17
Check for missing or loose bolts. Tighten loose bolts and re-
place missing bolts before operating machine. Verify that belt and blade
guards are in place. Never operate a MC-800 without guards in place.
See Figure 14 and Figure 15.
5.18
WARNING: If you can see the drive belt or diamond blade,
the guards are not in place. Never operate a MC-800 without guards in
place. The proper position for the belt guard is bolted with four bolts to
the chassis. The proper position for the blade guard is down with the
white guard dust brush touching the horizontal surface. See Figure 14
and Figure 15.
