COOLING SYSTEM:
The engine cooling fluid is 50/50 anti freeze/water
mixture.
• Clean the Radiator Air Filter Element (1DD) every 50
hours or when required, replace if damaged. Always
keep Radiator Air Filter Element (1DD) in place.
• Check hoses and hose clamps for damage and
looseness. Tighten or replace as required.

• Pull the Air Filter Outer Element out of the filter
housing and replace, or clean by using low pressure
compressed air [2.75 bars (40 psi - MAX)] from the
inside out. DO NOT clean the filter element by tapping
it on the ground or other objects, this will damage the
filter element!
SAW LOWERS TOO FAST:
• The lowering rate of the saw can be adjusted using
the Flow Control Valve (1U) at the rear or the saw. If
the saw falls too quickly, turn the knob on the Flow
Control Valve (1U) CLOCKWISE until an adequate
lowering rate is set.
If the ENGINE or BLADE STALLS for any reason, raise
the blade completely from the cut, inspect the machine
thoroughly before restarting the engine. When lowering
the blade into a partial cut, align the blade exactly with
the cut to prevent damage to the blade.
Entrust all repairs to your authorized
dealer only.
9 Adjustments: Straight Line Sawing
(See Figures 1 and 4)
While cutting, the saw may steer to the right from the
required straight line marked on the cutting surface (if the
Diamond Blade (2E) is installed on the right hand side). If
this occurs, the Rear Axle (4E) of the saw can be pivoted
to compensate for this situation.
Saw with EASYTRACk option.
• Push Axle Adjustment Switch (1J) to the LEFT. Small
short adjustments make large changes.
• Adjustments can be made while sawing or not sawing.
• Visually confirm the axle movement and direction.
Saws with Manual Axle Adjustment
• The axle (4E) is adjusted by turning the M12
Adjustment Bolt (1CC) located at the rear lower left
of saw frame.
• If the saw steers to the RIGHT while sawing, Turn the
Adjustment Bolt COUNTERCLOCKWISE.
• If the saw steers to the LEFT while sawing, Turn the
Adjustment Bolt (1CC) CLOCKWISE.
