A method for controlling a wall saw system during creation of a separation cut in a workpiece between a first and second end point, is disclosed. The separation cut is carried out in a plurality of main cuts. In addition to the main-cut sequence, an overcut sequence having at least two overcuts is defined for each end point defined as a free end point. For each overcut sequence, a starting position and an end position are defined, the overcuts being carried out therebetween. The wall saw is positioned in the starting position and is pivoted into a first overcut angle; subsequently, the saw head is moved by way of the inclined saw arm until the end position has been reached. The wall saw is displaced back into the starting position and pivoted into a second overcut angle. This sequence is repeated until all of the overcuts have been carried out.

A cart for carrying a cut-off saw having a saw blade. The cart includes a frame with upper and lower portions, a wheel arm pivotably coupled to the lower portion about a first axis, and a rear wheel assembly coaxial with the first axis and coupled to the frame and the wheel arm. The cart includes a front wheel coupled to an end of the wheel arm opposite the rear wheel assembly, an adjustment lever pivotably coupled to the upper portion about a second axis, and a link having a first end pivotably coupled to the adjustment lever and spaced from the second axis, and a second end pivotably coupled to the wheel arm between the first axis and the front wheel. Pivoting the adjustment lever about the second axis pivots the wheel arm about the first axis to adjust a vertical position of the front wheel relative to the upper portion.

A cutting and dust or slurry collecting assembly that comprises: a) a circular saw blade (4) b) a blade guard (5) c) a cover device (6), and the cover device (6) has a front end (31), a rear end (32), a top surface (34), a bottom surface (36), elongated sidewalls (35), and a longitudinal passage (45,46) for the saw blade, d) the blade guard (5) and the cover device (6) being pivotally connected or connectable to one another via a hinge (40) in or adjacent to a lower rear corner of the blade guard (5), such that the cover device and the blade guard can be turned in relation to each other, e) a discharge member (52) is provided at the rear of said hinge and has an outlet (58) which can be connected to a vacuum source, f) a connection member (12) connects the discharge member (52) with at least one of the longitudinal passage (45, 46) and the cut created rear of the longitudinal passage, g) that the direction of rotation of the saw blade (4) is such that a circumferential part of the blade which has passed beyond the bottom surface of the cover device will move in a direction upwards-rearward towards the bottom surface In particular a rear arm distance (LR) between the hinge (40) and the rear end (32) is bigger than 0.2 R and preferably bigger than 0.25 R, thereby enabling a turning of the cover device (6) by pressing the rear end (32) towards the structure to be cut.

The present invention provides a cutting machine that cuts a structure by pressing a disk-shaped blade against the structure while rotating the blade, comprising: a machine body having wheels and rotatably supporting the blades; a tank that stores water to be supplied to the blade for cooling the blade; and a motor for rotationally driving the blade, wherein the tank and the motor are arranged such that the tank and the motor at least partially overlap each other in a top view of the cutting machine.

Various concrete cutting devices using a cutting enclosure and dust collection system are described. The system generally includes a housing, a door releasably secured to the housing, a cutting blade within an interior of the housing, at least one baffle within the housing interior, a vacuum port, and a blade sight window in the door. Also described are vertically positionable and optionally biased skid plates associated with the housing and blade.

A floor leveling apparatus and method for cutting parallel grooves in a hardened body which is configured to assist in utilizing a grinder to finish surfaces in a planar manner.

A saw blade for a sawing machine for cutting micro trenches for receiving at least one duct or cable. The saw blade includes coding elements such as holes, depressions or protrusions. The holes, depressions or protrusions form at least one code symbol representing a unique identity (ID) for the saw blade.

A device for cutting a workpiece along a cutting line between a first end point and a second end point including a saw head, comprising an advancing mechanism with a guide carriage and with an advancing motor. The saw head is arranged on the guide carriage movable along an advancing direction, including a sensor system with a sensor element for monitoring the saw head, the advancing mechanism or the work process, including a control unit with a control element to control the saw head, the advancing mechanism and the sensor system as well as an evaluation element to evaluate a measured quantity detected by the sensor system, including an operating device to operate the saw head and the advancing mechanism, and including a display. On the basis of the measured quantity, the control unit calculates the momentary work result which is shown on the display.

A system and a method for sawing control joints in concrete barriers is provided. The system includes a barrier mounting frame slidably mountable about the barrier, on the top, first and second lateral faces of the barrier. The system also includes a saw attachment having a circular saw attached thereto, the circular saw being manually operable. A linkage assembly connects the frame mounting barrier to the saw attachment, and allows to manually move the circular saw up or down, and towards or away from the barrier, when in use, to create the control joint transversally along the top, first and second lateral faces of the barrier.

Cutting apparatus attachable to a skid steer. The apparatus includes a house attached to a skid steer. The house is attached to an arm, which is attached to a motor that drives a blade. A single hydraulic circuit originating from the skid steer powers both the motor and a cylinder that is capable of pivoting the arm or rotating a guard that partially surrounds the blade. The user is able to operate the motor and cylinder independently of one another. The cutting apparatus is capable of cutting a straight line on horizontal, raised, and vertical surfaces.
