OperatiOn
TraVeliNg DuriNg CuTTiNg
This saw has a hydrostatic transmission which mechanically
propels the saw during cutting operations. To prepare the
machine:
1. Place the travel lever in the neutral position (Figure 27).
Figure 27. Travel Lever (Neutral Position)
2. Lift the transmission engage/disengage lever, located
on the console (Figure 28) to engage. Leaving the
lever down disengages the transmission to allow for
manual pushing during cutting or moving the machine
around the job site.

Lever (Engaged Position)
3. Move the travel lever towards the
ForWarD position
to increase forward travel speed during cutting
(Figure 29). Placing the travel lever fully forward will
move the saw at maximum speed.

4. When reverse movement is required, move the travel
lever towards the
reVerSe position (Figure 30).
Placing the travel lever fully in reverse will move the
saw backwards at its maximum reverse speed.

1. The saw employs a front pointer (Figure 31) that
has been precisely aligned with the diamond blade
at the factory. Accurate tracking is accomplished by
referencing the front pointer tip over the cut line. Precise
saw direction is accomplished by slight operator
pressure against the handle bars.
