Hydraulic System
(See Figures 1-6)
The hydraulic system on this saw is used to RAISE/
LOWER the Diamond Blade (2E), and to propel the
saw FORWARD and REVERSE. The hydraulic system
consists of a Hydrostatic Pump (5N), (2) Hydraulic Wheel
Motors (4F), Hydraulic Filter (5K), DC Lift Pump (5H),
Hydraulic Oil Reservoir (5J), Flow Control Valve (1U),
and Hydraulic Lift Cylinder (4G).
•
Hydraulic Filter (5K) should be changed after the
first 50 hours of operation, then every 250 hours of
operation.
•
Check Hydraulic Reservoir (5J) fluid level periodically.
Maintain oil level with SAE 15W40 API Class SE, CC,
CD motor oil. DO NOT OVERFILL, check oil level
when saw is level.
•
Change hydraulic fluid every 500 hours of operation.
Fill Hydraulic Reservoir (5I,5J) with approximately 2.5
quarts of SAE 15W40 API Class SE, CC, CD motor
oil. DO NOT OVERFILL! Check oil level when saw
is level.
•
The lowering rate of the saw can be adjusted using
the Flow Control Valve (1U) at the rear of the saw. If
the saw falls too quickly, turn the knob on the Flow
Control Valve (1U) CLOCKWISE until an adequate
lowering rate is set.

Important Advice
(See Figures 2-3)
•
Tighten loose nuts and bolts regularly, particularly after
several hours of operation.
•
Check V-Belt (3M) tension regularly. Re-tighten
V-Belts (3M) as necessary.
•
Remove the Diamond Blade (2E) for storage. Store
it carefully.
•
Check the water spray over the Diamond Blade (2E)
periodically.
•
Tighten the Diamond Blade (2E) firmly on the Blade
Arbor (2C).
•
Make sure the contact faces of Flanges (2B & 2F),
Diamond Blade (2E), and Blade Shaft (2I) are clean.
Store in a safe place out of reach of children.
Remove all adjustment tools and wrenches.
Store diamond tool in a safe place so it
cannot be damaged.

Engine Speed Adjustment
(See Figures 1-6)
Serious injury can occur to the operator
or people in the work area if the rotational
speed (n/min) of the Diamond Blade (2E)
exceeds the maximum speed (n/min) marked
on the Diamond Blade (2E).
Each FS6600 / FS8400™ models, as delivered from the
factory, are designed to operate with a specified range of
blade sizes. If a blade size outside the specified range
of sizes for your model must be used, then the saw drive
configuration must be changed. [For example: If changing
from a small to a very large Diamond Blade (2E), the
Blade Shaft Pulleys (3L), Gearbox Pulleys (3N) and the
Blade Shaft Flanges (2B & 2F) must be changed.]
For example: To change from a 26" drive to a 42" drive:
1. Change Gearbox Pulley from 4.12" DIA to 3.65"
DIA.
2. Change Blade Shaft Pulley from 4.75" DIA to 6.40"
DIA.
3. Change Blade Flanges from 5" DIA to 7" DIA.
4. Change Blade Guard from 26" to 42".
5. Engine Speed does not change.
