STOW CUTTER 1 CE SAW — GENERAL INFORMATION
The STOW CUTTER 1 CE saws are designed for wet cutting of
concrete or asphalt utilizing Diamond Blades. These saws have
been engineered for general and industrial flat sawing
applications.The reinforced steel box frame design adds strength
necessary to reduce blade vibrations while cutting. By minimizing
blade vibrations the performance of the blade is enhanced and thus
the life of the blade is extended.
Heavy-duty front and rear axles, sturdy oversized wheels, and
industrial undercarriage assembly ensure accurate tracking and
years of reliable use.
Additionally, the general strength-to-weight ratio design of the
frame and chassis assembly provides for optimum weight
distribution to keep the blade running true in the cut. A rugged
spindle bearing assembly ensures minimal flutter and shaft
harmonics providing the most advantageous condition for a
diamond blade at operating speeds.
The CUTTER 1 CE series saw comes equipped with an 18-inch
blade guard and handles Diamond Blades ranging in size from 12-
18-inches in diameter.
An ACME thread, manual raise/lower assembly easily raises and
lowers the blade and locks it into position to ensure a constant depth
cut. All CUTTER 1 CE series saws are equipped with a retractable
cutting guide, oversized roller bearing wheels, industrial spindle
bearings, and a rigid steel frame.
All STOW CUTTER 1 CE saws are designed, engineered and
manufactured with strict adherence to American National
Standards Institute, Inc. (ANSI) guidelines B7.1 and B7.5.
Water System
All CUTTER 1 CE saws provide a hardy water plumbing system
that evenly distributes water volume and optimum flow rate to
both sides of the blade to keep it cool when cutting. The basic
water system provides a valve that connects to a standard garden
hose. The water is delivered (via a hose) to the saw blade. A water
tank delivery system is optional.
Power Plants
The CUTTER 1 CE saw is classified in the industry as a "low"
powered saw. This classification is particularly useful when selecting
the proper diamond blade for an application.
The CUTTER 1 CE saw is powered by a HONDA GX-390 air
cooled, 4-stroke, single cylnder, OHV gasoline engine rated at
13 HP (9.6 kW) at 3,600 RPM. Blade rotation is V-belt driven.
The upper drive (engine) pulley on the output shaft of the engine
connects to the lower drive (spindle) pulley and thus, the blade,
by three V-Belts. As the engine shaft rotates, so does the blade. The
ratio, or difference between the engine speed and the spindle (blade)
speed is determined by the two different sizes of pulleys used.
Refer to the Engine Owner's Manual for specific instructions
regarding engine operation and maintenance practices.
Intended Use
Operate the CUTTER 1 CE Saw, tools and components in
accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. Use of any
other tools for stated operation is considered contrary to
designated use. The risk of such use lies entirely with the user.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damages as a result
of misuse.
This saw is not intended for dry cutting.
