PAGE 20 — FCG16HA SAW • OPERATION AND PARTS MANUAL — REV. #1 (03/19/10)
1. Blade Guard - Pivot the blade guard front cover all the way
back. The guard tension spring will keep the front cover in
position.
2. Blade Hex Nut - Unscrew the blade shaft nut (right side
loosens clockwise and tightens counter-clockwise while the
left side loosens counter-clockwise and tightens clockwise.
DO NOT overtighten the nut (approximately 45-50 ft. lb/61-
68 N/m) when finalizing the assembly.
3. Outside Blade Flange (Collar) - Ensure that the outside
blade flange is placed flush against the diamond blade.
The inside surface of the flange must be free of debris and
permit a tight closure on the surface of the blade core.
Cutting Depth
The FCG16HA Concrete Saw has a capacity for a 10" blade
with an 0.675" (15.9 mm) Arbor diameter. This allows a cutting
range from 0" to 3 1/4".
BLADE PLACEMENT
Failure to thoroughly inspect the diamond
blade for operational safety could result in
damage to the blades or the saw and may
cause injury to the user or others in the
operating area.
BLADE PLACEMENT
Diamond Blades
Selecting the diamond blade TYPE and GRADE defines how
the blade will perform both in cutting speed and blade life.
Selection of the proper diamond blade consists of:
Material to be Cut
Type of Saw Being Used
Spindle Speed of Saw
Hardness Characteristics of the Material
Performance Expectations
Factors for sawing economy:
Type of Blade
Depth of Cut
Sawing Speed
Characteristics of the Material Being Cut
Blade Speed
A diamond blade’s performance is directly connected to specific
peripheral (rim) speeds.
The following shaft rotational speeds have been factory set to
ensure optimum blade performance.
FCG16HA - 10” (254 mm)Capacity - 6000 RPM.
Operating saw blades at rotational speeds
greater than those specified by the manufac-
turer can cause blade damage, and may in-
jure the user or others in the operating area.
