Do NoT over-tension or under-tension the V-belts.
Severe damage can occur to the saw and engine crank
shaft if the belts are over-tensioned. A decrease of
power to the blade and poor performance will result if
the belts are under-tensioned (loose on pulleys).

on-board water tank fitted in the top of the console which
can be connected to the brass hose fitting on the rear of
the operator's console (Figure 18).
