WallWalker

Point
OPERATION
CUTTING TIPS CONT.
• Use the WallWalker to help cut more efficiently and reduce operator
fatigue. The WallWalker is a fulcrum that can be used to apply additional
force when cutting. To use correctly, plunge into the wall and simply
engage the point of the WallWalker into the cut and pry upward with the
rear handle.
• As the saw begins to rotate up, feed force is developed
down the line of the intended cut. Once the saw is fully
rotated upwards, pull
the saw out of the cut
a few inches and re-
engage the pick into the
cut and repeat.
• When cutting heavy
rebar, slowly ”rock”
the saw so that you’re
always cutting concrete
as well as steel. This
will help keep the
diamonds exposed.
Also, expect less chain
life when cutting heavy
rebar.
• Expect more chain stretch when making nose buried cuts for extended
periods of time, as the chain does not have a chance to “throw” the
slurry away from the nose of the bar.
• If the saw begins to cut consistently crooked, turn the bar over and use
the other side. Dress worn rails with belt sander. Note: The normal life
of a guidebar is two to three diamond chains. Heavy rebar can shorten
guidebar life.
• When using a new chain, you can increase the initial cutting speed by
“opening up the diamonds”. Make a few cuts in an abrasive material
such as a cinder block.
