contains chemicals known to the State
of California to cause cancer, birth
defects and other reproductive harm.
Some examples of these chemicals are:
Your risk from these exposures varies,
dependingonhowoftenyoudothistype
of work. To reduce your exposure to
these chemicals:work in aALWAYS
well ventilated area, and work with
approved safety equipment, such as
dust masks that are specially designed
to filter out microscopic particles.
Grinding/cutting/drilling of masonry, concrete, metal and
other materials with silica in their composition may give
off dust or mists containing crystalline silica. Silica is a
basic component of sand, quartz, brick clay, granite and
numerous other minerals and rocks. Repeated and/or
substantial inhalation of airborne crystalline silica can
cause serious or fatal respiratory diseases, including
silicosis. In addition, California and some other
authorities have listed respirable crystalline silica as a
substance known to cause cancer. When cutting such
materials, always follow the respiratory precautions
mentioned above.
WARNING
Grinding/cutting/drilling of masonry, concrete, metal and
other materials can generate dust, mists and fumes
containing chemicals known to cause serious or fatal
injury or illness, such as respiratory disease, cancer,
birth defects or other reproductive harm. If you are
unfamiliar with the risks associated with the particular
process and/or material being cut or the composition of
the tool being used, review the material safety data
sheet and/or consult your employer, the material
manufacturer/supplier, governmental agencies such as
OSHA and NIOSH and other sources on hazardous
materials. California and some other authorities, for
instance, have published lists of substances known to
cause cancer, reproductive toxicity, or other harmful
effects.
Control dust, mist and fumes at the source where
possible. In this regard use good work practices and
follow the recommendations of the manufacturers or
suppliers, OSHA/NIOSH, and occupational and trade
associations. Water should be used for dust
suppression when wet cutting is feasible. When the
hazards from inhalation of dust, mists and fumes cannot
be eliminated, the operator and any bystanders should
always wear a respirator approved by NIOSH/MSHA for
the materials being used.

RULES AND REGULATIONS
DIAMOND BLADE SAFETY
Use appropriate steel-centered diamond blades
manufactured for particular use on your saw. See further
blade information in this manual.
WARNING — Inspect Diamond Blades
ALWAYS inspect diamond blades before
each use. The blade should exhibit no
cracks, dings, or flaws in the steel
centered core and/or rim. Center (arbor)
hole must be undamaged and true.
Examine blade flanges for damage and excessive wear.
Ensure the cleanliness of the blade before blade is
installed. Blade should fit snugly on the shaft and against
the inside/outside blade flanges.
Ensure the blade is marked with an operating speed
greater than the spindle speed of the saw.
Only cut the material that is specified for the diamond
blade. Read the specifications of the diamond blade to
ensure the proper tool has been matched to the material
being cut. The saw has been engineered for WETCUTTING. Ensure a WET CUTTING blade is being used
and that the water supply system to the blade is properly
functioning and being used.
ALWAYS keep blade guards in place. Exposure of the
diamond blade must not exceed 180 degrees.
Ensure that the diamond blade does not come into contact
with the ground or surface during transportation. DO NOT
drop the diamond blade on ground or surface.
The engine governor is set to permit maximum engine
speed in a no-load condition. Do not tamper with the
engine governor to increase the speed. Increasing the
engine speed could allow the maximum rated spindle
speed to be exceeded, creating an unsafe condition.
Ensure that the blade is mounted for proper operating
direction.
Adhere to the blade manufacturer’s recommendations
on handling, storage, and safe usage of blades.
This saw is very heavy. Use proper heavy lifting
procedures and DO NOT attempt to lift by the guards.
DANGER — Do Not Stand Under Saw
NEVER stand under or allow anyone else to stand under
the saw while it is being lifted.
DO NOT use the handle bars and/or front pointer as lifting
points.
ALWAYS use ramps capable of supporting the weight
of the saw and the operator to load and unload the saw.
NEVER tip the engine to extreme angles as it may cause
oil to gravitate into the cylinder head making the engine
start difficult.
TRANSPORTING (VIA TRUCK/TRAILER)
ALWAYS shutdown engine before transporting.
Tighten fuel tank cap securely and close fuel petcock to
prevent fuel from spilling.
Drain fuel when transporting saw for long distances or
over bad roads.

in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Use of
any other tools for stated operation is considered contrary
to designated use. The risk of such use lies entirely with
the user. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damages
as a result of misuse.
ENGINE
The SP7060 saw is classified in the industry as a “high”
powered saw. This classification is particularly useful when
selecting the proper cutting tool (blade) for an application.
The SP7060 saw is powered by a liquid cooled, 3 cylnder,
turbocharged diesel engine rated at 60.2 HP (44.9 kW) at
3,000 RPM. Blade rotation is belt driven. Wheel Drive
system is driven by a hydrostatic transmission consisting
of a variable displacement pump and two fixed displacement
wheel motors.
Refer to the Engine Owner’s Manual for specific
instructions regarding engine operation and maintenance
practices.
WATER SYSTEM
All SP7060 saws provide a hardy water plumbing system
that evenly distributes water volume and optimum flow rate
to both sides of the blade to keep it cool when cutting. The
basic water system provides a valve that connects to a
standard garden hose. The water is delivered (via a hose)
to the saw blade.
All MULTIQUIP SP7060 saws are designed, engineered
and manufactured with strict adherence to American
National Standards Institute, Inc. (ANSI) guidelines B7.1
and B7.5.
FEATURES
Stay-level handlebar system adjusts handlebar angle
automatically.

Engine (RPM) and Surface Feet per Minute (SFPM)
Speeds
This saw uses a belt drive system to propel the diamond
blade. Specifically sized engine drive and blade shaft
pulleys, engine (RPM) and blade diameter determine the
ultimate peripheral speed (SFPM) of the diamond blade. It
is important to understand the SFPM speed — For safety
and performance, it is essential that the selected
diameter diamond blade be matched up to a proper
SFPM (see Table 8).

Five 7060 models are available (706016, 706020, 706026,
706030, 706036) and are designed with different pulley ratio
speeds to govern the blade shaft RPM output. The
combination of the different diameters of the pulleys along
with engine (RPM) determines this ratio that ultimately
provides a RPM speed at the blade shaft (Figure 7).
When choosing a blade for your cutting conditions, follow
the blade manufacturer's recommendations. Match the
blade speed (Blade Shaft RPM) to the recommended blade
Surface Feet Per Minute (SFPM). See Table 8.

others in the operating area. Discard damaged or worn
blades and replace with fresh blade.
to an “under cutting” condition brought about by highly
abrasive material or improper under cutting core
protection.
4.Directional Arrow — Check to ensure that the blade
is oriented properly on the spindle/arbor for sawing.
Reference the directional arrow on the blade and place
it so the direction of rotation “downcuts” with the turn
of the shaft.
5.Diamond Segment or Rim — Ensure there are no
cracks, dings, or missing portions of the diamond
segment/rim. DO NOT
segment or a portion of
missing segments/rims may cause damage to your
saw, and injury to the user or others in the operating
area.
6.Specifications — Ensure that the blade specifications,
size, and diameter properly match up to the sawing
operation. Wet blades must have water to act as a
coolant. Utilizing a diamond blade not matched properly
to the task may result in poor performance and/or blade
damage.

. Damaged and/or
Figure 8. Diamond Blade
1.Drive Pin Hole — A commonly located hole on the
diamond blade core that prevents operational blade
slippage between the inner & outer blade flanges
(collars). Inspect the diameter of the hole to ensure
there is no distortion, and that a snug fit develops
between the hole and drive pin.
2.Stress Relief Holes (Gullets) — Check the steel core
for cracks that may have propagated from the slots
and/or gullets. Cracks indicate extreme fatigue failure,
and if sawing continues, catastrophic failure will occur.
3.Edge of the Steel Core — Check the diameter edge
for discoloration (blue oxidation) indicating an
overheating condition caused by insufficient cooling
water/air. Overheating of blades may lead to loss of
core tension and/or increase the possibility for blade
failure. Check to make sure the steel core’s width is
uniform about the rim of the blade and not succumbing
7.Arbor Hole — It is essential that the arbor hole diameter
properly matches the shaft arbor, and that it is free
from distortions. Correct blade flanges (collars) must
be used. The inside face of the flanges must be clean
and free of debris. An out of round arbor condition will
cause damage to the blade and the saw.
8.MAX RPM — This RPM reference is the maximum
safe operating speed for the blade selected. NEVER
exceed the max RPM on the diamond blade. Exceeding
the max RPM is dangerous and may cause poor
performance and may damage the blade. All blades
used must be designed for the maximum spindle RPM.
The blade can be mounted on either side of the saw to
accomodate different cutting jobs. With the proper sized
blade selected, reference the following procedure to install
the new blade.
Ensure the flange faces are kept clean and
smooth as well as the inside diameter of
the blade shaft.
INSTALLING THE BLADE
1.Raise the saw so the blade will clear the ground when
installed.
2.Remove the blade flange bolt. This bolt is LEFT-HAND
thread on the RIGHT side of the saw and RIGHT-HAND
thread on the LEFT side of the saw.
3.Verify the blade flanges are clean and not damaged.
Pay particular attention to all holes and recesses. Clean
or “rod-out” as necessary (Figure 9).

BLADE SHAFT ROTATION — DISENGAGEMENT
SYSTEM
The engine MUST be at IDLE when engaging or disengaging
blade shaft drive (Figure 30, item 1).
Hydraulic system pressure must be sufficient to
enable the blade shaft engage/disengage feature.
Increasing engine RPM slightly may help facilitate
the system pressure necessary to engage the
blade shaft drive.
WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM
The 7060 Series features a cable-controlled hydraulic
powered gear motor system with infinite Forward-NeutralReverse (F-N-R) speed adjustment. This is controlled by
the operator through the speed control handle located on
the control panel. The saw is designed with a locked axle
drive and can travel forward at transportation speeds up to
275 feet per minute.
A bi-directional variable displacement transmission pump
powers two hydraulic wheel motors that are directly coupled
to the wheels. This design provides vehicle propulsion in
both forward and reverse depending on the position and
direction of movement of the F-N-R control handle. The
wheel drive system also provides dynamic braking action.
To STOP blade shaft rotation:
Push rocker switch labeled BLADE SHAFT DISENGAGE
(Figure 30, item 2). The engine (via the hydraulic lift cylinder)
will tilt forward, disengaging the belt drive.
To START blade shaft rotation:
Push rocker switch labeled BLADE SHAFT ENGAGE
(Figure 30, item 2). The engine (via the hydraulic lift cylinder)
will tilt backward, engaging the belt drive.

Refer to Figure 31.
■
To increase the forward speed, slowly move the control
handle FORWARD.
■
To decrease the forward speed, pull the control handle
BACKWARD.
■
When the control handle is in the Neutral position the
saw will have neither a forward nor reverse motion.
■
As the control handle is passed backward through the
neutral position the saw will start to move in REVERSE.
Reverse speed is also controlled by the position of the
control handle.
DO NOT leave the saw unattended while the engine is
running. NEVER start, park, or leave the saw unattended
on a slope.
CAUTION
Allow the engine to warm up before increasing engine
speed.
DO NOT stop the engine abruptly when hot. Reduce the
throttle to idle and allow the engine to run one or two
minutes before turning the ignition switch off. This allows
the engine to cool down preventing damage to the turbo
charger.

engage/disengage system. Hydraulic pressure exerted on
the engine tilt cylinder applies force on the belt drive system
to engage blade shaft rotation.
The rotary belt tensioner system uses a 9/16"-headed nut
and a 15/16" or 1" nut to set belt tension by positioning an
arm between the tensioner pulley and the tensioner base.
BLADE SHAFT
The fully enclosed blade shaft eliminates most maintenance
(Figures 51 and 52). Should the blade shaft need service
or repair however, contact the manufacturer for details.
Ridges on the base mark the amount of tension.
Blade Shaft Assembly
Adjust to 3-1/2 notches on the tensioner:
1.Loosen the 9/16" nut.
2.Rotate the tensioner nut clockwise until the desired
belt tension is achieved.
To ensure correct blade shaft/wheel alignment, this
operation should be performed by an authorized service
center.
DRIVE SYSTEM ALIGNMENT
In addition to blade alignment, maintaining proper blade
and drive system alignment will allow the saw to cut lines
that are straight without much effort. Therefore the front
wheels and blade shaft axles MUST be at right angles to
Blade Alignment
Maintaining proper blade and drive system alignment will
allow the saw to cut lines that are straight without much
effort. Therefore the blade shaft flanges MUST be
equadistant to the sides of the saw, (+/- .030"). See Figure
53 below where distance A must equal distance B.
The second requirement for the blade is that it MUST be square
to horizontal (90

the frame edge.
In Figure 54, you see the distance “A” on the right side is
shown as “A + .187"” which means that the distance
between centers of the front and rear drive axles are 3/16"
longer than on the opposite side. This will have the effect
of causing the saw to “steer” slightly to the left. After
becoming familar with the saws particular sawing
characteristics, the operator may wish to have this alignment
altered to fit his own preferences or to fit a particular
application.

BLADE FLANGE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION
Correct removal or installation of the inner blade flange requires
a flange puller (p/n 18503). See Figure 56, items 2 and 3.
WARNING
If unfamilar with this operation, seek assistance or
training from someone that is familar with this operation.
Because of the tapered fit between the blade flange
and blade shaft, 5-10 tons of force is required to release
the inner flange from the blade shaft. Both parts and
tools can become dangerous projectiles if instructions
are not followed properly.
The outer flange MUST be in place to prevent the puller
assembly and inner flange from flying off when the taper
breaks loose. Injury or equipment damage could
otherwise result.
2.While the 3 perimeter bolts (item 4) hold the two puller
plates together, slide the horseshoe plate (item 2) of
the flange puller behind the shaft side of the inner
flange.
3.Tighten the center puller bolt (item 5) to remove the
inner flange from the blade shaft.
WARNING — Outer Flange
If the inner flange does not readily break free
from the tapered blade shaft while the center
puller bolt is tightened, lightly tap on the center
puller bolt to allow the flange to break free from
the shaft.
6.Loosen the mounting bolt and remove the outer flange
1.Ensure that the tapered portion of the blade shaft and the
inner blade flange are clean and free of burrs or
7.Inspect the inner flange to ensure the proper seating
indentations. Clean and repair as necessary. See Figure
57.
2.Ensure that the drive key (Figure 57, item 6) is in place.
3.Slide the Inner Flange (item 5) onto the tapered portion
of the blade shaft.
CAUTION — Do not use lubricant
DO NOT use lubricant of any kind. Lubricant prevents
the tapered surface of the Flange and Shaft from mating
properly.
4.Install the outer blade flange (item 3), flange bushing
(item 2), and mounting bolt (item 1).
