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 wellventilated, unoccupied approved areas, and away from sparks or flames. Do not fill the 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 compact 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.

D. 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.
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. Place the blade on the blade shaft, lining up the drive pin hole in the blade with the drive pinhole in the inside collar. Use only Clipper Diamond Blades. This machine was not designed for the use with abrasive blades. 5. Slide the outside blade shaft collar onto the blade shaft .
use of water greatly decreases the amount of dust produced during the cutting process, aids in the cooling of the blade, and provides additional stability. • • Use Only Water In The Water Tank Do Not Drink From The Tank D. Operating the Saw 1. For blade installation instructions see section II. Operation sub heading A. Installing the Blade. For the engine starting instructions, see the Engine manual and follow the instructions located in section II. Operation sub heading B. Starting the Engine. 2.
13. When moving the saw to a new location, be sure the blade is not touching the ground. Always pay close attention to where you are moving and where the blade is at all times. E. Cutting Technique Lower the blade into the concrete to the required depth by turning the hand wheel clockwise. Reduce the forward pressure if the saw begins to stall. Note: For deeper cuts (4 inches or more), several cuts should be made in incremental steps of 1-1/2 to 2 inches until the desired depth of cut is reached.
III. MAINTENANCE 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.hondaengines.com/home.
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.
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. This bead, in addition to acting as an indicator of adequate relubrication, provides additional protection against the entry of foreign matter.
7. Line up the straight edge along the outside face of both pulleys as shown in the drawing. 8. Misalignment will show up as a gap between the pulley face and the straight edge. 9. Make sure that the width of the outside land (area between the belt and the edge of the pulley) is equal on both pulleys. D. Depth Control The depth control (raising screw) consists of a threaded rod, which feeds into a brass nut.
