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 areas approved, and away from sparks or flames. Don not fill the saw fuel tank while the engine is hot or running. Do not start the engine near spilled fuel.
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.
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. The blade must be properly fitted over the arbor with the drive pin on the outside collar projecting through the drive pin hole on the blade and inside collar. 4.
I. PREPARATION B. Assembly The self-propelled concrete saws are shipped completely assembled and ready for use except for diamond blade, gasoline, oil, and handle bar. Inspect the saw for shipping damage. If any damage is found, contact the shipper immediately and file a freight claim. The Norton Company is not responsible for any freight-related damages. Remove the saw from the pallet. Reverse the position of the handlebars so that the handle bar sticks out towards the operator.

II. OPERATION Read and understand this manual before running or using the machine! A. Installing the Blade 1. Disconnect the spark plug and then insert the Blade Shaft Locking Pin into the Blade Shaft Locking hole. 2. Remove the blade shaft nut, (Turn clockwise) , and remove the outside collar. 3. Clean off any foreign particles on the clamping surfaces of both collars and on the mounting surface of the blade. 4.
B. Engine Prior to attempting to operate the engine, read the information contained in the engine owner's manual. An engine owners 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. Capacity of oil is 1.1 liters (1.16 US qt) 2. Check Fuel: Fill if low. Use only unleaded gasoline with a pump sticker octane rating of 86 or higher is recommended. Never use an oil and gasoline mixture! 3.
• • Use Only Water In The Water Tank Do Not Drink From The Tank D. Operating The Saw 1. For the engine starting instructions see the Engine manual and follow the instructions located in section A. Installing the Blade of the II. Operation heading for Blade installation instructions. 2. Check the Engine Oil level. 3. Disengage the Self-propelling unit by moving the Transmission Engage/Disengage lever fully up and place the Speed Control in the neutral position. 4.
11. For Self-propelled models move the Transmission Engage/Disengage lever by fully to the Engage position and \ then slowly push the Speed Control forward until the desired speed is reached. If the engine begins to stall or the saw raises out of the cut slow the forward speed down!! The further the lever is pushed the fast the saw will move. 12.
Additional Guide Lines For Sawing: • Understand and follow all of the instruction in this owners manual. • If wet cutting, turn on the water supply so that there is a minimum of two gallons per minute of water flow!! • In critically hard aggregate more than a single pass may be needed to cut the desired depth. • Only move the Engage/Disengage lever while the transmission speed control is in the neutral position. • Move the transmission speed control slowly.
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. The Norton Company does not warranty the engine. If any warranty or service of the engine is required contact your nearest Honda service center, or from the Internet: http://www.honda-engines.com/home.htm Honda Power Equipment Group 4900 Marconi Dr.
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. A fire or explosion could result. To clean, follow the instructions found in the Honda engine manual.
B. Bearings Re lubrication type bearings must be relubricated daily to assure long life. The grease used should conform to the NLGI grade two consistency and be free of any chemical impurities such as free acid or free alkali, dust rust, metal particles or abrasives. For best results, bearings should be relubricated while in operation. Note: Due caution for personal safety must be observed when servicing rotating equipment. The grease should be pumped in slowly until a slight bead forms around the seals.
III. MAINTENANCE C. V-Belts Warning: Never make adjustments to belts or pulleys while engine is running! 1. The best tension for a belt drive is the lowest tension at which the belts will not slip under full load. 2. Simply take up the drive until the belts are snug in the grooves. Run the drive for about 15 minutes to "seat" the belts. Then impose the peak load. If the belts slip tighten them until they no longer slip at peak load. 3.
III. MAINTENANCE D. Depth Control The depth control (raising screw) consists of a threaded rod which feeds into a brass 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.
F. Self-Propelling Operations 1. Speed Control Lever: The operators right hand lever is the speed control lever. Pushing the lever slowly forward will increase the forward speed of the saw. Pulling it to the center will place the saw in neutral. Pulling the saw to the rear of the console (from the neutral) will increase the reverse speed. 2.
2. Remove the operators Right hand side blade nut (NOTE: Left hand thread) and Loose Collar. 2. Remove the blade from the saw if installed. 3. Remove the Blade Guard buy loosing the Blade Guard Locking Screw located on the front side of the Blade Guard and remove the Blade Pivot Bolt, Washer, and Nut from the rear of the Blade Guard. 4. Remove the Blade Shaft Guard from the operators left hand side of the machine. 5.
