00:00well welcome back here and today what we have here is a electric concrete saw this is a 14
00:18inch blade on here diamond blade and you would use this saw mostly when you would maybe want
00:24to put in a another opening down down in the basement maybe for a door since it's electric
00:30you won't have the gas to to worry about while you're using it possibly putting in the windows
00:35a lot of times in the you would use it in interior use only because you're not dealing with the fuel
00:42not saying you can't use it outside if you're not comfortable using a gas saw but there is still a
00:49fair bit of weight to one of these saws and it does have a fair bit of kick when you want to use
00:56it you can hook a garden hose up to it for water keep the dust down and you have a normal 115 outlet
01:02just remember that this does kick in and a full 15 amps so have it in a spot where you're no don't
01:10have other things on the circuit make sure you use maybe number 10 or 12 extension cord if you do need
01:15an extension cord and that way you're not getting lost in the cord you do have a reset because you're
01:24gonna have water involved so the reset would trip if there was any kind of short or anything so the
01:30easiest way to use one of these saws is if you're doing a wall don't put it to the wall and start
01:37bringing it up to speed slowly get your saw in your hand get it comfortable pull the trigger and get
01:45your saw going full speed before you start going to use it before you're gonna do cutting and none
01:49of this on and off on and off stuff you want to have the saw at full speed and then when you would
01:54hold it up and get the weight down on your on your lower arm and use your top arm as a kind of a guide
01:59the most common thing is to be twisting in the cut and that's where you start jamming a blade or
02:04possibly damaging the blade by knocking off segments so your primary concern is to get on your cut and move
02:13down and move slowly not saying you can't move upwards as well because you can see your line
02:18maybe a little better but whatever is more comfortable for you to cut with so that you're
02:22not moving the saw on sideways certainly a lot easier if you're going to use it to cut on a floor
02:29or maybe you're putting in a second bathroom and you want to run lines for the your drain pipes and
02:36everything for the shower or for the bathroom or maybe running along you're redoing the lines in
02:42the in the floor over to the the exterior of the house for for the sewer so in this case usually best
02:50to keep this arm straight the left arm have the trigger on bring it down into the cut and then move
02:55yourself backwards slowly and usually start out here move back and then you would move and then move
03:02back but try and keep your left arm straight try to keep this this type of action is what you don't
03:07want and if you're moving the trigger on and off they do have some torque to them so when you first
03:12turn it on be prepared it'll probably want to do a little that on you a little bit of a twist because
03:16of the torque in the in the motor that's why you bring it up to full speed and then you'll get past
03:22that motion and then it's easy to go down and do your cut and the water will keep the dust down and you can
03:27make a make a nice cut and go all the way down to the depth you want don't make a little cut and then
03:34a little cut and a little cut sink it down all the way down and then move the whole cut all the way
03:40across you'll be have a a lot better experience than trying to go back and forth and follow your
03:45line over and over again okay so there's a there's a tool it takes a little more to use a little more to
03:51get used to but if you're going to do that second bathroom job and you do want to cut lines or you
03:57do want to put in that that extra door maybe make a fruit cellar or something down in your basement
04:01this is the tool that you may come across and want to try so good luck with your projects
04:07this will help hopefully make it a good one and don't forget to subscribe
