Block Heaters
Optional Block Heaters, (installed directly on the crankcase), are operated by
plugging them into an electrical outlet via an extension cord. Do not use when
low temperatures are above 20°F. The block heater is NOT thermostatically
controlled and should be used only prior to intended use of saw.
CAUTION
§ Do not leave optional Block Heaters plugged in unattended, for
extended periods or when temperatures are above 20°F. The oil
could “cook” inside the crankcase and damage to the engine could
result.
§ If the Water System is not drained when the saw is not in use and
temperatures fall below 32°F, damage may occur to optional water
pumps and/or oil coolers.
Draining the Water System
When low temperatures fall below 32°F:
1. If the saw is equipped with an optional Water Pump, open the drain petcock
on the pump and allow the pump to drain.
♦ With the engine running, turn the water pump switch on for a few
seconds to purge water remaining inside the pump body.
2. Tilt the saw up and back, to allow water to drain.
3. Tilt the saw forward, to allow water to drain again.
4. If an air compressor is available, blow out the system by applying
compressed air to the Water Inlet (see Fig. 10).
Pointer Adjustment
1. Lower the front pointer assembly.
♦ Adjust the pointer rod (1) by loosening the lock knob (2).
♦ Once the pointer rod is set to the cut line, tighten the lock knob.
2. Adjust the rear pointer to the cut line:
♦ Loosen the lock bolt, position the pointer rod, and tighten the lock bolt.
3. To raise the front pointer assembly, pull back and up on the pointer cable (3).
♦ Secure the pointer assembly in the desired raised position by locking the
cable between the jaws of the cam cleat (5).
