SMARTGUARD POWER CUTTERS

DEVELOPED FOR ENHANCED OPERATOR SAFETY

HUSQVARNA K 770/K 970/ K 1270/K 7000 SMARTGUARD K 770/K 970/K 1270/K 7000 SmartGuard are powerful allround power cutters with features that makes them one of the best on the market. Equipped with SmartGuard, an extended blade guard design which reduces the likelihood of accidents and circumstances when a kickback may occur as it emphasises correct technique and correct cutting zone.

The semi-automatic SmartTension™ system allows for optimal power transmission, minimum wear and maximum belt life.

The light weight, outstanding power-to-weight ratio, the reliable start and exceptionally low vibrations mean less strain and maximised productivity. Husqvarna SmartGuard is also available as an accessory retrofittable on Husqvarna K 770 12''/14'', K 970 14''/16''/K 1270 16'' and K 7000 16'' power cutters.

START WITH THE CUTTING BLADE Failure to check the blade’s condition before cutting is a common mistake. Using the wrong type of cutting blade, or a worn-out or damaged one, increases the risk of accidents. Choosing the right blade for the job at hand will help you work smooth and efficiently.

KNOW THE BLADES DIAMOND BLADES

ABRASIVE BLADES

DESIGN: Husqvarna diamond blades consist of a steel core equipped with segments that contain industrial diamonds.

DESIGN: The cutting material on abrasive blades consists of grit bonded with organic binder. This is often reinforced with a fabric or fibre base, which prevents total breakage at maximum working speed if the blade gets cracked or damaged.

APPLICATIONS: Ideal for cutting masonry, reinforced concrete and other composite materials.

CAUTION: Never transport the power cutter with the blade fitted. Before use, inspect the blade for cracks in the core and segments, imbalance or missing segments. Check the wear indictors on all segments to ensure enough side clearance.

Scrap the blade if you detect any damage.

APPLICATIONS: Recommended for dry cutting of materials that do not create silica dust, such as steel, steel alloys, cast and ductile iron.

CAUTION: Cannot withstand moisture or freezing temperatures. Before use, ensure that the cutting blade is not cracked or damaged: test the blade by hanging it on your finger and tapping it lightly with a screwdriver or something similar. If the blade does not produce a resonant, ringing sound it is damaged.

Never use other blades with a Husqvarna power cutter.

Never use toothed blades like wood cutting blades, circular toothed blades, carbide tipped blades, etc. The risk of kickback is significantly increased and tips can be torn off and thrown at high speed.

KNOW THE SYMBOLS BUSHING DIAMETER Check that the bushing on the machine’s spindle shaft corresponds with the center hole of the cutting blade. The blades are marked with the diameter of the centre hole.

THE RIGHT BLADE FOR THE RIGHT MACHINE Make sure the cutting blade is the right one for the machine you will be using for the job.

WET OR DRY CUTTING? Wet cutting diamond blades must be used with water to keep the blade core and segments cool during sawing. Using wet cutting blades without water can cause excessive heat build-up, resulting in poor performance and severe blade damage. It is a safety hazard.

SMARTER FEATURES Husqvarna diamond blades are equipped with several indicators to give an instant, clear view of the blade’s wear, side clearance, direction of rotation, cutting depth and intended application.

SPEED RATING Check that the blade is approved for the same or higher speed as specified on the power cutter’s approval plate. Never use a cutting blade with a lower speed rating than that of the power cutter.
