Note: Chain breakage can result in high-speed ejection of parts, which
can result in death or serious personal injury to operators or bystanders.
The items listed immediately below are critical to minimizing the risk of
chain breakage and injury.
• DO NOT operate the power cutter with damaged, modied or missing
components shown below.
• Side cover

• Rear hand guard
• Mud ap bracket (chain catcher)
• Trigger interlock
• DO NOT exceed 90 psi (6 bar) operating pressure.
• DO NOT insert the diamond chain power cutter into a slot narrower
than the chain segments.
Rapid pushback might occur.
NOTE: Most ICS diamond chain segments are .225 inches (5.72 mm) wide.
• NEVER run a diamond chain power cutter upside-down.
Concrete debris can y back into the operator’s face.
• NEVER cut ductile iron pipe with concrete chain.
Segment loss or chain breakage may occur.
• NEVER operate the ICS power cutter with a saw chain or saw bar

SAFETY
THE FOLLOWING WARNING SYMBOL APPLIES TO ALL THE ITEMS LISTED
ON THIS PAGE
This power cutter can generate hazardous dust and vapors.
Determine the nature of the material you are going to cut before
proceeding with the job. Be especially aware of cutting materials containing
silica and asbestos as inhaling dust can result in respiratory disease. Be sure
to use appropriate respiratory protection designed to lter out microscopic
particles. Be sure to use adequate water pressure.
Over-exposure to vibration can lead to circulatory and/or nerve damage to
the extremities, especially in cold temperatures (Reynaud’s Disease).
If you experience tingling, numbness, pain or changes in skin color, particularly
in your ngers, hands or wrists, stop using the power cutter immediately. If the
problem persists, seek medical attention.
WARNING Indicates a hazard with a medium level of risk
which, if not avoided, could result in death or
serious injury.

• Always disconnect the air supply and relieve pressure from supply lines
before performing maintenance on the power cutter.
• Diamond chains and guidebar require a minimum water pressure of 20 psi
(1.4 bar). Insucient water supply may result in excessive wear to the
guidebar or diamond chain, which can lead to loss of strength and diamond
chain breakage and damage the bar.
• When operating a compressor with greater than 90 psi (6 bar) it is
recommended to use a “service unit with pressure regulator” in line to
prevent over speeding the power cutter.
GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Always wear protective clothing, including a hard hat, eye protection, hearing
protection and gloves.
• Avoid loose clothing.
• Perform safety checks before starting each day.
• Always operate tool with solid footing and handgrip.
• Remove or control slurry to prevent yourself or others from slipping while
cutting.
• Always work in a cleared area.
• Be sure there are no obstructions (plumbing, electrical conduit, air ducts).
• Set up a well-marked safety zone with a roped boundary and clear signs to
keep bystanders at least 20 ft (5m) away.
• Breathing exhaust fumes is dangerous. Provide ventilation in closed areas.
• To avoid electrocution, check for live electrical wiring near cutting area.
