Excel Series Blades; Blade And Skid Plate Installation - Husqvarna Soff-Cut 2000 Manuel D'utilisation

BLADE AND SKID PLATE INSTALLATION

Step 1
With the saw turned off and using both hands, push down on
the handle bar and raise the saw to its full height and locked
position.
Step 2
Remove the blade block cover (A) by turning the two locking
knobs counter-clockwise. Insert the blade wrench supplied
with the saw on the blade shaft bolt (B) on the end of the blade
shaft in the blade block (C). Rotate the blade shaft counter-
clockwise with the wrench on the blade shaft bolt (B) while
pushing in on the blade shaft locking pin (D) located on the top
of the saw frame in front of the engine. The locking pin will drop
down in the blade shaft and prevent the shaft from rotating.
Step 3
Remove the blade shaft bolt by continuing to turn the bolt
(E).
WARNING
Inspect the blade (K) for any damage. Do not use
arbor. Make sure the blade is marked with a maximum
operating speed greater than 3300 rpm.

Step 4
Match the blade tri-arbor to the blade shaft arbor (F) and install
installed on the tri-arbor correctly. Match the female tri-arbor of
blade shaft bolt turning clockwise while holding the locking pin
the diamond blade in position.
Step 5
Install a new skid plate (G) by hooking the front on the front
blade block shaft pin. Connect the rear blade block shaft and
the rear of the skid plate by using the clip-on feature.
Step 6
Install the blade cover by turning the two knobs and tighten
until fully seated against the blade block. Lift the front and rear
of the skid plate to insure the blade slides through the skid
plate freely.
Step 7
When replacing a worn blade, thoroughly clean the concrete
from blade block and blade cover before installing the new
blade. Discard the old skid plate and replace it with a new skid
plate.
NOTE:
The patented skid plate is the most important part of the
Soff-Cut Ultra Early Entry system. If it is bent, twisted or
damaged, spalling and raveling of a cut may result. Store
skid plates carefully and install them properly. Install a
new skid plate with each new blade. Never re-use skid
plates.
