FS2/FS2SP CONCRETE SAW — GENERAL INFORMATION
POWER PLANTS
The FS2/FS2SP Series saws provides a variety of gasoline engine
choices (Table 3). Selection of a specific engine, and its capacity
measured in horsepower/torque, directly affects the performance of
the diamond blade.
The FS2/FS2SP series saws are generally classified in the industry
as a "
LOW
to
MEDIUM
" horsepower saws. This classification is
particularly useful when selecting the proper diamond blade for an
application. Refer to the engine
Owner's Manual
for specific
instructions regarding engine operation and maintenance practices.
FAMILIARIZATION
The MQ Whiteman FS2/FS2SP Series concrete saws are designed
for wet or dry cutting utilizing diamond blades. They have been
engineered for general, industrial and high production flat sawing
applications. The exceptional performance of these saws centers
around innovative features, top quality components, and committed
attention to state-of-the-art manufacturing.
The reinforced heavy gauge steel frame and chassis assembly has
been precisely jig welded to eliminate operational bending and/or
flex that would lead to diminished blade performance. Additionally,
the general weight-to-strength ratio design of the frame and chassis
assembly provides for optimum weight distribution to keep the blade
running true in the cut.
An innovative outboard blade shaft bearing assembly ensures
minimal flutter and shaft harmonics providing the most advantageous
condition for a diamond blade at operating speeds. Heavy duty
front and rear axles, oversized reinforced wheels supported by roller
wheel bearings and locking collars, and industrial under carriage
assembly ensure accurate tracking and years of reliable use.
The positive locking Raise/Lower screw feed system with accurate
depth gauge easily orients blade elevation, and will not permit blade
creep during cutting operations.
A unique water plumbing system allows for independent orientation
of either fluted floodwater to the blade for wet cutting applications or
cones of aerosol mist (14" blade guard only) to diminish material
dust cutting in situations where minimal water usage is necessary.
Quick disconnect hose fittings are provided for quick and easy water
orientation.
Operator control of the saw is safely accomplished with adjustable
ergonomic handle bars, and a combination of conveniently oriented
items on the console such as: Raise/Lower Crank Handle,
Tachometer/Hourmeter, ON/OFF Water Valve, Depth Feed Gauge,
and Emergency Engine ON/OFF switch. Additionally, for electric
start and self-propelled models, the console also provides starting,
power control and forward/reverse controls.
All MQ Whiteman FS2/FS2SP saws are designed, engineered
and manufactured with strict adherence to American National
Standards Institute, Inc. (ANSI) guidelines B7.1 and B7.5.
