MQ SP-3035 CONCRETE SAW
Drive System Controls
The control handle controls FORWARD-NEUTRAL-REVERSE (F-N-R) speeds and the raising and
lowering of the saw. To increase forward speed, slowly move the joystick FORWARD. Pulling the
joystick backward decreases saw speed, and when the joystick passes NEUTRAL the saw moves
into REVERSE. Reverse speed is also controlled by the position of the joystick.
Although not a true “free wheeling” mode, the Drive Disengage handle, when pulled, allows the
saw to be freely moved when the engine is not running.
DO NOT DISENGAGE WHILE ENGINE IS RUNNING.
