MQ SP-3035 CONCRETE SAW
Setting the Depth Gauge & Depth Stop
The 3000 Series saws use a cable-controlled Depth Gauge and mechanical Depth Stop to lock the
blade at the desired cut depth. See Fig. 18.
Setting the Depth Gauge
1. Lower the blade until it just touches the cutting surface.
2. Turn the Depth Gauge dial to zero.
The Depth Gauge will show the depth of cut. It should not be necessary to readjust the Depth
Indicator until a different diameter of blade is installed.
Setting the Depth Stop
1. Lower the blade into the cut until the desired cutting depth is achieved.
2. Turn the Depth Stop Crank clockwise to take slack out of the Depth Stop.
To increase cutting depth, turn the Depth Stop Crank counter-clockwise. To reduce cutting depth,
turn the Depth Stop Crank clockwise.
