• Flexible on Wet or Dry Job Sites: Instantly switch between wet and dry modes for hassle-free adaptation to project requirements and material types.

Ideal Applications

• Commercial/block wall construction and foundation work

• Landscaping pavers, architectural block, and stone cutting

• Retaining wall, step/riser builds, and custom hardscape fabrication

• Onsite masonry production for large-scale building projects, stadiums, or bridges

• Paver manufacturer, rental center, and landscape supply yard use

Maintenance Guidelines

• Before Use: Always inspect the diamond blade, rails, and engine oil; confirm that belts are properly tensioned and fluid levels meet requirements; check water lines if wet cutting.

• After Use: Clean the machine, blade guard, rolling table, and air filter of masonry dust or slurry; empty or flush the water system.

• Weekly/Monthly: Change or clean the engine air filter as per job intensity, check and re-tension all drive belts, inspect rolling table rails for flatness and wear, and grease moving parts.

• Blade Maintenance: Never force or jam workpieces; change blades that show signs of damage, segment loss, or excessive wear.

• Engine Care: Follow Honda/GX engine guidelines for oil change intervals, spark plug replacement, and air filter checks.

Safety Tips

• Run gasoline engines only in well-ventilated areas to avoid CO exposure.

• Always wear goggles, gloves, hearing protection, and a dust mask.

• Use the foot pedal—never shift your hands near the blade while the machine is running or coasting.

• Let the engine come to a complete stop and disconnect the spark plug before performing maintenance or blade changes.

• Never operate without all guards in place; confirm blade speed is safe and matches the blade’s rating.
