FS 1 CONCRETE SAW — GENERAL INFORMATION  
POWER PLANTS  
FAMILIARIZATION  
The FS1 Saw Series provides a variety of gasoline engine  
choices. Selection of a specific engine, and its capacity measured  
in horsepower/torque, directly affects the performance of the  
diamond blade. The FS1 series is generally classified in the  
industry as a "LOW to MEDIUM" horsepower saw.  
The MQWhiteman FS1 Series Concrete Saws are designed for  
wet or dry cutting utilizing diamond blades. They have been  
engineered for general and industrial flat sawing applications.  
The exceptional performance of these saws centers around  
simple operating 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.  
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. [SeeTable 3]  
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. A rugged  
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, sturdy oversized wheels, and  
industrial under carriage assembly ensure accurate tracking and  
years of reliable use. A positive locking counter balance Raise/  
Lower system with a depth meter easily orients blade elevation.  
A hardy water plumbing system evenly distributes optimum water  
volume & flow rate to both sides of the blade. Operator control of  
the saw is safely accomplished with adjustable ergonomic  
handlebars.  
All FS1 saws are designed, engineered and manufactured with  
strict adherence to American National Standards Institute, Inc.  
(ANSI) guidelines B7.1 and B7.5.

FS 1 CONCRETE SAW — GENERAL INFORMATION  
UNDER CARRIAGE SYSTEM  
MANUAL RAISE/LOWER SYSTEM  
A jig welded heavy steel gauge under carriage chassis assembly  
supports the saw in tracking, pivoting and stabilization. Two rear  
wheels (8" x 2.0" x 3/4") and two front wheels (4" x 2.0" x 3/4")  
supports the chassis. The entire assembly pivots about the rear  
carriage and is lubricated through 90-degree grease fitting in  
the rear axle tube. [See page 38, Under Carriage Assembly]  
A positive locking mechanical raise and lower spring tension  
assembly supports elevation cycling operations. A rotating ball  
handle permits the engage/disengage process, and the tension  
spring assists the operator with smooth blade entry anCd eCgrCess.  
Blade orientation is referenced on the front face of the handle  
bar support tube and is calibrated for 12", 14", 16" and 18"  
diamond blades. [See Figure 11 and page 22]  
BLADE DRIVE SYSTEM  
A rugged blade shaft assembly has been specifically designed  
to support the optimum distribution of torque from the engine  
shaft to the blade shaft, and to ensure minimal vibratory conditions  
on the tips of the shaft. Balanced engine & blade shaft pulleys  
are connected to their respective shafts. Two premium V-belts  
connect the engine pulley to the blade shaft pulley. The 1-1/4"  
diameter blade shaft is supported by two self-aligning pillow  
block bearings, and is designed for left and right hand cutting.  
[See page 40, Blade Shaft Assembly]  
BLADE GUARD ASSEMBLY  
The two-piece heavy gauge 14" blade guard is designed with a  
water system to meet the challenges of wet cutting operations. A  
fluted floodwater manifold assembly supplies optimum volume  
and dispersal of water to both sides of the diamond blade for wet  
cutting applications. The sizable (6") fluted tubes that direct the  
floodwater resist clogging and are easily removed for  
maintenance. The blade guard has a convenient "flip-up" front  
cover for easy blade changes, and is spring tensioned for positive  
up/down positioning. The blade guard may be oriented for left or  
right hand cutting.  
Figure 6. Water Connection/Manual/Raise Lower  
Assembly  
TABLE 4. BLADE SELECTION  
WATER SYSTEM  
The FS1 Series employs a water system that provides floodwater  
to the blade. Two 6" fluted tubes are connected via a manifold,  
and are oriented inside the blade guard to provide optimum  
water volume and dispersal to both sides of the blade. A standard  
"garden hose" hookup valve connects the water source to the  
saw, and a 2-way water lever (ON/OFF) is conveniently located  
for the operator. [See Figure 6 and page 48]

FS 1 CONCRETE SAW — INSPECTION -BLADE  
4.  
Directional Arrow – Check to ensure that the blade is  
oriented properly on the blade shaft for sawing. Reference  
the directional arrow in the blade and place it so the direction  
of rotation “downcuts” with the turn of the shaft.  
WARNING  
Failure to thoroughly inspect the diamond blade (Figure 9) for  
operational safety could result in damage to the blade, the saw,  
and may cause injury to the user or others in the operating area.  
5.  
Diamond Segment or Rim – Ensure there are no cracks,  
dings, or missing portions of the diamond segment/rim. DO  
NOT use a blade that is missing a segment or a portion  
of the rim. Damaged and/or missing segments/rims may  
cause damage to your saw, and injury to the user or others  
in the operating area.  
6.  
Specifications – Ensure that the blade specifications, size,  
and diameter properly match up to the sawing operation.  
Wet blades must have water to act as a coolant. Utilizing a  
diamond blade not matched properly to the task may result  
in poor performance and/or blade damage.  
7.  
Arbor Hole – It is essential that the arbor hole diameter  
properly matches the blade, and that it is free from  
distortions. Correct blade flanges (collars) must be used.  
The inside face of the flanges must be clean & free of debris.  
An out of round arbor condition will cause damage to the  
blade and the saw.  
8.  
MAX RPM – This RPM reference is the maximum safe  
operating speed for the blade selected. NEVER exceed  
the max RPM on the diamond blade. Exceeding the MAX  
RPM is dangerous, and may cause poor performance and  
may damage the blade.  
Figure 9. Diamond Blade  
1.  
Drive Pin Hole – A commonly located hole located on the  
diamond blade core that prevents operational blade  
slippage between the inner & outer blade flanges (collars).  
Inspect the diameter of the hole to ensure there is no  
distortion, and that a snug fit develops between the hole  
and drive pin.  
2.  
Stress Relief Holes (Gullets) – Check the steel core for  
cracks that may have propagated from the slots and/or  
gullets. Cracks indicate extreme fatigue failure and if sawing  
continues, catastrophic failure will occur.  
3.  
Edge Of The Steel Core – Check the diameter edge for  
discoloration (blue oxidation) indicating an overheating  
condition caused by insufficient cooling water/air.  
Overheating of blades may lead to loss of core tension  
and/or increase the possibility for blade failure. Check to  
make sure the steel core’s width is uniform about the rim of  
the blade, and not succumbing to an “under cutting”  
condition brought about by highly abrasive material or  
improper under cutting core protection.

4.  
Diamond Blade – Ensure that the proper diamond blade  
has been selected for the job. Pay close attention to the  
directional arrows on the blade, clockwise for right-hand  
cutting and counter-clockwise for left-hand cutting, then  
place the blade onto the blade shaft, and ensure the arbor  
hole of the blade matches the diameter of the shaft.  
WARNING  
Failure to thoroughly inspect the diamond blade (Figure 10) for  
operational safety could result in damage to the blade, the saw,  
and may cause injury to the user or others in the operating area.  
1.  
Blade Guard – Pivot the blade guard front cover all the  
way back.The guard tension spring will keep the front cover  
in position.  
5. Blade Drive Pin – Line up the blade drive pin with the  
inner flange (collar) pin hole. The blade’s operating  
directional arrows must point in a “down-cutting” direction  
(whether cutting on right side or left) to perform correctly.  
2.  
Blade Hex Nut – Unscrew the [blade shaft nut “right hand”  
side loosens clockwise, and tightens counter clockwise],  
[blade shaft nut “left side” loosens counter clockwise and  
tightens clockwise]. Utilize the blade nut wrench and shaft  
lock wrench located on the lower inside console cavity.  
DO NOT overtighten the nut (approximately 45-50 ft.-lb/  
61-68 N/m) when finalizing the assembly.  
6. Inner Flange (Collar) This flange is fixed upon the blade  
shaft, and is manufactured with a drive pin hole. The inside  
surface of the flange must be free of debris and permit a  
tight closure on the surface of the blade.  
7. Blade ShaftTorque Hole – A conveniently placed opening  
on the frame that permits the use of the shaft lock wrench to  
assist in blade changes. The pointed end of the locking  
wrench fits into the saw frame hole and a machined hole in  
the blade shaft. Once in place, the blade shaft can not  
rotate making it easier to remove the blade nut.  
3.  
Outside Blade Flange (Collar) – Ensure that the outside  
blade flange is placed flush against the diamond blade,  
and that the flange drive pin goes through the blade pin  
hole and seats properly into the inner flange drive pin hole.  
The inside surface of the flange must be free of debris and  
permit a tight closure on the surface of the blade core.

WARNING  
5. Lift up the blade guard cover to gain access to the diamond  
blade.  
Dropping or forcing the blade onto the cutting surface can  
severely damage the diamond blade and may cause serious  
damage to the saw and bodily harm.  
When removing or installing  
a diamond blade, please note  
that the blade retaining nuts  
are left and right hand  
threaded.  
WARNING  
ALWAYS make sure that the ball handle has been securely  
locked against the actuating arm lever to prevent blade depth  
creep.  
6. Use the provided blade nut and blade shaft locking wrenches  
(Figure 10) to install the diamond blade. Also reference steps  
1 through 7 on page 21.  
7. When cutting, reference the cutting depth by viewing the  
depth pointer bar (3) in conjunction with the raise lower scale  
until the desired depth is achieved.

Guards and Covers Check  
V-belts and Cover  
CAUTION:  
WARNING  
NEVER operate the saw without blade guards and covers  
(Figures 12,13 and 14) in place. DO NOT operate with the front  
of the blade guard raised. The blade exposure cannot exceed  
180 degrees during operations. Adhere to the safety guidelines  
of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) B7.1  
and B7.5.  
NEVER attempt to check the V-belt with the engine running  
because severe injury can occur. Keep fingers, hands, hair and  
clothing away from all moving parts.  
V-belts Alignment andTensioning  
This concrete saw is equipped with two premium V-belts (14")  
and three premimum V-belts (18") that have been aligned and  
tensioned by factory personnel. All twoV-belts MUST be installed  
for proper operation of the saw. Failure to run the saw with less  
than two belts may damage the saw or equipment.  
Use the following procedure to check the alignment of V-belts:  
1. Removethe boltsthatsecuretheV-beltcover(Figure14)to  
thesawframe.  
Figure 12. Mist Blade Guard  
CHECK the following on the "blade guard":  
Check to ensure the capacity of the blade guard matches the  
diameter of your diamond blade.  
Check that the guard is bolted firmly upon the saw frame.  
Check that the spring tensioned front cover of the guard is  
firmly seated with the rear section of the guard, and there are  
no gaps.  
Check the fit of the water hoses about the water manifold.  
NEVER lift the blade guard while cutting.  
Figure 14. V-Belt Cover  
Check that the flood water tubes and water jets are clear and  
open. Test the water supply for pressure and flow (to both  
sides of the blade) before sawing operations.  
2. Check uniform parallelism (Figure 15) of V-belts and pulley  
(sheaves). Use a straight edge or machinists's square  
against both pulleys and adjust both pulleys until equally  
aligned.  
CHECK the following on the "blade flange cover":  
Check that the flange cover seats firmly upon the bayonet  
fitting of the saw frame prior to operation.  
This flange cover is to be in place when cutting from either the  
right or left side of the saw.

Saw Alignment  
5. Set the depth and saw only as the job conditions and  
specifications require. Unnecessary deep sawing is wasteful  
to the life of your blade.  
1. TheFS1employsafrontandrearpointer(Figure22)thathas  
been precisely aligned with the diamond blade at the factory.  
Referencing the figure below, accurate tracking is accom-  
plished by referencing the front and rear pointer tips over the  
cut line. Precise saw direction is accomplished by slight  
operator pressure against the handle bars.  
6. The preferred method of sawing is to step cut in increments  
of 2” (51 mm). “Step-cutting” provides the optimum opportu-  
nity for the blade to cut fast and last its longest.  
CAUTION:  
ALWAYS saw in a straight line only. Serious  
damage to the blade may occur if the saw is  
twisted or forced to cut radius shapes.  
7. Therotationofthebladecreatesatendencyforthesawtopull  
in a particular direction (to the right if the blade is mounted on  
the right, to the left if the blade is mounted on the left).

8. To ensure a straight line of sawing, apply pressure to the  
appropriate handle as you slowly advance the saw forward.  
DO NOT force the blade to the cut any faster than its natural  
tendency.  
2. For operator comfort, an ergonomically designed handle bar  
adjusts by loosening two clamping knobs and adjusts to the  
desired height. Tighten the knobs back down when the  
desired height is met.  
WARNING  
If the engine stalls for any reason during  
sawing, raise the blade out of the cut  
before restarting.  
Wet Saw Operation  
WARNING  
9. The operator must recognize and adhere to the optimum  
speed that the saw advances while sawing. DO NOT force  
the saw in the cut. Observe the engine tachometer from time  
to time to get the feel for a smooth sawing pace relative to  
RPM.  
The operator must wear the appropriate protective equipment  
and clothing while engaged in sawing.  
10. Factors for sawing economy:  
1. Connect hose from water source to the hose fitting connec-  
tion (Hose Connection below handle bars) on the saw. The  
source pressure should be approximately 40 psi.

Dry Saw Operation  
WARNING  
WARNING  
Engine components can  
generate extreme heat.  
Diamond Blades and Blade Speed  
1. Diamond Sawing consists of cutting WET or DRY.  
The operator must wear the appropriate protective equipment  
and clothing while engaged in sawing.  
2. Matching the correct blade for the specific job and material  
being cut optimizes performance and value.  
1. Ensure the proper DRY Cutting blade is selected for the job.  
2. The preferred method of sawing is to step cut in increments  
of 2” (51 mm). “ Step-cutting” provides the optimum opportu-  
nity for the blade to cut fast and last its longest. Airflow acts  
as a blade coolant during sawing. Cutting too deep with one  
pass, or exerting excessive forward/side-ward pressure may  
damage the blade.
