• Mark out a line on the ground where a cut
has to be made.
• Position the machine so that the lowered
front guide (F) and the disc are aligned
with the line marked out (disc visble on
the belt side of the housing).
• Start up the motor : refer to the motor
manufacturer’s instructions in the service
manual.
• Allow the motor to warm up.
• Turn on the water supply tap (G) (from
the mains or the water tank).

bearing in mind that each graduation of
the scale corresponds to a depth of 1cm.
Lower slowly to prevent the engine
stalling.
• Gently move the machine forward
ensuring that the front guide and the disc
are always aligned with the line marked
out.

works at an angle, check it frequently in
the horizontal position that the oil level
is never below the second line on the
gauge.
■ To start up, refer to the motor
instructions.
Take into account the working
conditions from health and safety
point of wiew.

• There may be several causes responsible
for arresting the disc in the sawing groove
or stopping the machine:
