STOW CUTTER 3 CE SAW — MAJOR COMPONENTS
Figure 3 displays the location of the various operational control
features of the Cutter 3 Saw. Features are dependent on the specific
model saw selected. The function of each console component or
indicator is explained below:
1. Handle Bars – Used to steer and push the Cutter 3 saw
during cutting operations. The handle can be folded down
for transportation.
2. Forward/Reverse Speed Lever – Controls forward and
reverse speeds for self-propelled operation. Provides
positive neutral for engine start. ALWAYS place
transmission engage/disengage lever in the engage
position before setting speed lever (self-propelled models
only).
3. Raise/Lower Crank Handle – Physically orients saw
(raises or lowers) depending on cranking direction (CW or
CCW). Turning the handle
clockwise lowers the saw,
turning the saw counter-clockwise raises the saw.
4. Transmission Engage/Disengage Lever – Forward
locking position engages transmission. Rear Locking
position disengages transmission from rear axle and
permits "free wheeling" (self-propelled models only).
5. Water Tank – A 5-gallon capacity water tank provides water
for the saw blade during wet cutting applications.
6. Water ON/OFF Valve – ON position opens valve and
permits water to flow from source through saw water hose.
OFF position
closes valve and halts the flow of water.

7. Hydraulic Drive Transmission - Controls the saw's
forward and reverse movement by using the
forward/
reverse speed lever (Self-propelled units only).
8. Saw Blade Guard – Covers the saw blade during cutting
operations & allows water hoses to be connected to the
cover for wet cutting.
9. Belt Cover – Covers the drive shaft belt, engine pulley
and the hydraulic transmission belt (on self-propelled
models only).
10. Drive-Shaft Pulley Guard – Covers the drive shaft pulley.
11. Rear Wheels – Allows the saw to be rolled across ground.
On self-propelled models, the rear wheels are turned by
the spline gears attached to the hydraulic transmission
system.
12. Pointer Arm – Front pointer wheel assists in straight
tracking. Lifts up for storage and pivots down for use.
13. Lifting Bale Kit – Allows for easy lifting and transporting
the Cutter 3 Saw.
14. Engine OFF Switch – Toggle in either direction to stop
the engine.
15. Wheel Clamp – Move handle down making contact with
wheel to avoid unwanted rolling movement. Lift handle to
release.
16. Throttle Lever – (self-propelled units only) Used to adjust
engine RPM speed ( SLOW or FAST ).
