Adjusting the Blade for Shallower Cuts
Model #: TFS6H
The Tomahawk Early Entry Concrete Saws' default blade setting is adjusted to the max blade depth of 1-3/16" (ASTM Standard Specification for Portland Cement). If a shallower cut is desired, follow these steps:

Adjustment Procedure
-
Loosen the depth adjustment nut (1) above the front right wheel, counter-clockwise with a 13mm wrench.
[Note: No specific image directly illustrates only step 1, but the general mechanism is shown in the diagram and the close-up image for step 2.] -
Turn the depth stop adjustment bolt (2) clockwise with a Size 5 Metric Allen wrench. Each full revolution of the bolt will reduce the cut depth by 1/8".

Make sure the rear wheels are flat on the ground by pushing down on the rear of the main frame.

Follow an existing saw joint cut for approximately one foot to confirm that the proper/desired cut is achieved.
