To Fill Fuel; To Start The Engine - Husqvarna Soff-Cut 150 Manuel D'utilisation

Without this, joints can not be cut clearly enough to
control random cracking before it starts, which is what
the building owner is paying for.
The ACI Spec 302.1R-96 says it best:
"Early-entry dry-cut saws use diamond-impregnated
blades and a skid plate that helps prevent spalling.
Timely changing of skid plates is necessary to effectively
control spalling. It is best to change skid plates in
accordance with manufacturer's recommendations...The
goal of saw-cutting is to create a weakened plane as
soon as the joint can be cut...The timing of the early-
entry process allows joints to be in place prior to
development of significant tensile stress in the
concrete..."
The Portland Cement Association (PCA) engineering
bulletin, Concrete Floors on the ground, also states:
"Proper jointing can eliminate unsightly random cracks.
Aspects of joining that lead to a good job are choosing
the correct type of joint for each location, establishing a
good joint pattern and layout, and installing the joint at
the correct time... Timing of joint sawing is
critical...Lightweight, high-speed, early-cut saws have
been developed to permit the joint sawing very soon
after floor finishing, sometimes within 0 to 2 hours...if the
cut is sawn within a few hours after the final finishing,
random cracking can be controlled..."
Husqvarna has the only Ultra Early Entry dry-cutting
system (Soff-Cut) which controls random cracking
through the early timing of the cut. With the Soff-Cut
method, control joints are usually cut within 2 hours after
the finishing process.
Joint cutting should begin as soon as the concrete will
support the weight of the saw and the operator at each
joint location and before final set.
If the joints are not being cut within this time frame then
the Soff-Cut Ultra Early Entry method is not being
followed.

To do a check of
CAUTION: Do not use gasoline with an
octane number less than 90 RON (87 AKI).
This can cause damage to the product.
CAUTION: Use unleaded gasoline. Do not
use unleaded gasoline with more than 10%
ethanol. Gasoline with more than 10%
ethanol cause a risk of fire and can also
cause starting and performance problems. It
can also cause damage to metal, rubber,
and plastic parts of the fuel system.
CAUTION: Do not use gasoline that
contains methanol.
CAUTION: Do not keep fuel more than 30
days in a container. Expired fuel can cause
damage to the product.
1. Remove the product from the transportation vehicle
and put it on the ground. If this is not possible, refuel
the product with a portable container and not from a
gasoline pump nozzle.
WARNING: Use only approved gasoline
containers.
2. Open the fuel tank cap slowly to release the
pressure.
3. Make sure that the nozzle touches the top edge of
the fuel tank opening until the fuel tank is full. Do not
use a nozzle lock-open device.
4. Clean the area around the fuel tank cap.
5. Tighten the fuel tank cap fully. If the fuel tank cap is
not tightened, there is a risk of fire.
6. Move the product a minimum of 3 m/10 ft from the
position where you filled the tank before a start.
