reproductive harm. Safety protection

techniques include, but are not limited to:

Wearing gloves.

Wearing safety goggles or a face

shield.

Using approved respirators.

General Safety

Read and understand all of the safety,

operations, and maintenance instructions

provided in this manual prior to operating or

servicing the saw.

Keep saw components clean and free of

slurry, concrete dust, and debris.

Inspect all hoses prior to operating the saw.

Clean, repair, or replace damaged

components.

Repair the saw immediately when a problem

arises.

Replace saw decals if unreadable.

Dispose of all hazardous waste materials

according to city, state, and federal

regulations.

Always have a phone nearby, and locate the

nearest fire extinguisher and first aid kit prior

to operating the saw.

Operate the saw wearing flame resistant

clothing.

Always wear safety glasses when removing

retaining rings.

Persons under the statutory age limit should

not operate the saw.

Keep all body parts away from rotating

machinery.

Replace all guards and access panels

(unless stated otherwise) prior to operating

the saw.

Always pivot guards fully to avoid serious

injuries.

Precautions

DO NOT drop equipment, supplies, tools,

etc., when handling to help prevent injuries.

DO NOT lift and carry equipment, supplies,

tools, etc., that are too heavy and/or cannot

be lifted easily.

DO NOT operate the saw without using the

appropriate safety equipment required for

the work task.

DO NOT operate or service the saw with

clothing, hair, or accessories that can snag

in the machinery, which could lead to

serious injuries or death!

DO NOT operate the saw using attachments

not associated with or recommended for the

saw.

DO NOT operate the saw around

combustible materials or fumes to prevent

fires/explosions.

Do not operate the saw with anyone near

the work area or within the direct line of the

blade.

DO NOT operate the saw until all

unnecessary materials have been removed

from the work area.

DO NOT operate the saw with loose nuts,

screws, and bolts.

DO NOT operate the saw when ill or

fatigued.

DO NOT operate the saw under the

influence of drugs and/or alcohol.

DO NOT operate the saw on a slippery or

uneven surface.

DO NOT cut concrete without guards.

DO NOT service the saw with the motor

running

Blade Safety

Always use diamond blades manufactured

specifically for the HDS60 saw.

Never cut dry. Without an adequate water

supply to properly lubricate the blade, the

blade will warp, causing damage to the saw

and/or serious injury to the operator.

Inspect all blades prior to usage and discard

damaged blades. Clean dirty blades as

necessary.

DO NOT install or remove a blade with the

motor running.

Keep all body parts away from rotating

blades.

Inspect the drive and idler wheels for

damage, wear, and cleanliness. Clean or

replace dirty/damaged components

immediately.

DO NOT expose yourself or anyone

else to the direct line of the blade when

operating the saw.

Always use an appropriate size blade and

the correct blade type based on the cutting

task and the type of material being cut.

The blade must always be fit correctly on the

drive wheels. Failure to do so can result in

damage to the saw and/or serious personal

injury.

Wear gloves and be alert to the

surrounding environment when handling

blades.

When installing the blade, always fit the

groove in the blade to the main drive wheel.

DO NOT exceed the blade’s maximum

recommended speed when cutting.

Excessive blade speeds can cause blade

breakage, resulting in serious injuries and/or

death!

DO NOT use damaged blades when cutting

to avoid harming yourself, others, or the

saw.

Blade Guard Safety

DO NOT operate the saw with the blade

guard removed.

Always inspect the blade guard prior to

operating the saw.

Replace damaged components immediately.

DO NOT install or remove the blade guard

with the saw running.

Cutting Safety

The direct work area must be checked prior

to cutting for buried or imbedded electrical,

gas or water lines that could be damaged

and/or cause personal injury while cutting.

Turn off all electricity, gas, and water around

the direct work area prior to cutting.

DO NOT expose yourself or anyone else to

the direct line of the blade when operating

the saw.

DO NOT allow any person, animal, and/or

object in and around the work area while

cutting.

Blade removal and installation

Step 7: Inspect lower drive roller for wear on lip. Replace if lip is worn to half the

original width (.200”)(figure 7).

Figure 7

Step 8: Install new blade, matching groove in blade to lip on the lower drive

roller. (figure 8)

Step 9: With the transmission assembly in neutral position, reinstall upper drive

roller using the ¼” allen wrench provided. Tighten securely by locking drive

wheel in position (figure 9).

Figure 9

Step 10: Using 5/32” allen wrench provided, remove guide roller cover and

inspect both guide rollers for wear or damage. Guide rollers should spin freely.

Figure 10

Blade removal and installation

Step 11: Reinstall adjustable arm assembly, blade guard and splash flap on saw.

Hand tighten bolts. Place ring saw on flat surface (figure 11) so that the

adjustable arm assembly is sitting with the weight of the saw on it. Tighten bolts

using the 9/16” wrench provided. Guide rollers should be firmly in contact with

the blade. Move t-handle to original location by pulling up and rotating 90

degrees, returning transmission assembly to the tensioned position.
