cutting.
A decal on top of the blade guard
shows the direction of rotation of
the blade.
•
•
•
Before you start cutting, make sure that any wiring in
your working area is not carrying current.
Pro t e ct ive e q u ip m e n t
The following protective equipment must be
used when working with the floor saw.

•
Anyone who has to remain nearby during cutting must
wear hearing protection.
3. Preparations before starting
Do not tilt, twist or carry the floor saw when the blade is
turning.
NOTE! Follow the safety precautions.

•
•
•
Set up a barrier or signs around the working area to
prevent any unauthorised personnel from being injured
or disturbing the operator while working.
•
•
Connect the power cable to the power socket.
Connect the water-cooling hose to the coupling that runs
from the blade guard.
Check the belt tension as described in section 5.3. Adjust
if necessary using the belt tensioning screw. Turning
clockwise tightens the belts.
•
•
Check that the water supply is adequate and that the
nozzle is not blocked.
Make sure that the power cable and water-cooling hose
from the floor saw will not get trapped underneath or in
front of the machine when you start up or during cutting.
Before you start cutting, plan your work and clearly mark
out the area you intend to cut so that you can carry out
the work without risk of injury or damage to the machine.
See figure 3.1.
•
Use the safety equipment specified in the safety precau-
tions on page 5.
•
•
•
To avoid interruptions and inconvenience during cutting,
plan your work so that you fit the blade on the most suita-
ble side of the saw right from the start.
Figure 3.1.
Check that you have the right diamond blade for the
FS 1000 EM and the material you intend to cut.
See section 9 Technical specifications.
WARNING
WARNING
Do not cut on a steep
incline as the blade
could jam.
Make sure that you are not
working on a floor that
could give way underne-
ath you.
Check the direction of rotation before fitting the blade.
Raise the blade guard on the side where you want to fit
the blade. Secure the blade guard with the retaining
strap. Connect the power cable and press the switch to
start the machine. Check that the blade flange rotates in
the direction shown by the arrow on the blade guard. If
the flange rotates in the wrong direction, turn off the
switch to stop the machine, then unplug the power cable
from the machine. Change the setting of the phase inverter
on the control panel. Stop the machine as described
above and recheck.
WARNING
Do not use the saw where
there is a risk of collapse.
•
Check that the blade is not worn; each of the diamond
segments must project at least 1 mm. They must also be
wider than the body of the blade. See figure 6.3.
4. Starting and operating
Before starting and operating the saw follow the steps in
section 3.
•
•
Check that none of the diamond segments is damaged.
•
•
•
Lower the alignment guide and adjust it so that the tip of
the guide and the saw blade are in line.
Fit the blade so that the arrow on the body of the blade
matches the direction of rotation of the shaft. Tighten
the blade flange using the pin spanner supplied, while
using the other spanner to prevent the blade shaft from
turning. See the instructions in section 6, Fitting and
replacing diamond blades.
Clear away any objects from the path of the machine that
could damage the machine or the surroundings.
Check that there are no unauthorised people inside the
working area, i.e. 4 metres in front of and to the side of
the machine.
•
•
Lower the blade guard over the blade.
•
Make sure that anyone who has to remain nearby is
wearing hearing protection.
Check that the blade is straight by turning the blade by
hand and measuring the gap between the blade and the
blade guard. If the blade is misaligned or uneven it must
be replaced.
•
•
Release the parking brake.
Line up the floor saw with the cutting line you have
marked on the floor.
•
•
•
Check that both the blade guard and the blade flange
guard are correctly fitted, then lower them.
•
•
Check that the saw blade rotates freely.
Make sure the emergency stop is not deactivated. The
emergency stop must not be deactivated during operation.
Check your safety equipment and any protective clothing
you are wearing.
Before starting the floor saw, raise the blade so that it
rotates without touching the surface.
•
Apply the parking brake.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
•
•
Lower the base plate by raising the safety catch.
•
•
Keep the machine's drive belts free of oil, dirt and dust.
Check the belt tension regularly as described below. If the
belts require tensioning, use the adjuster screw in front of
the drive motor. Turn this clockwise to tighten the belts.
See figures 5.2.2 and 5.3.
Turn on the cooling water to provide adequate cooling
and prevent dust formation.
•
Release the parking brake, while holding the guide hand-
le on the machine with your other hand. (CAUTION! Do
not hold the feed knob if you do not have full control
over the machine.) NOTE! Do not stand in front of the
machine.
Check the condition of the diamond blade regularly to
make sure it is not damaged or worn down. Replace the
blade when the segments are worn down or have become
narrower than the body of the blade.
•
•
Turn the height adjustment wheel clockwise to lower the
blade to a depth that is suitable for the material you are
cutting, but no less than 20 mm.
•
•
Check that the water supply is working correctly. If not,
clean the nozzle. See figure 5.2.1.
Regularly check that electrical wiring and couplings are in
good condition and that all screws are tight.
Cut a guide slot at this depth, moving steadily along your
marked line. When you have completed the guide slot,
turn the wheel to raise the blade, turn off the cooling
water and stop the saw by pressing the red switch. Drag
the machine back to the starting point.
