Q

What are the four strokes?

A

Intake stroke
1. Piston moves down to draw in fuel air mixture from intake valve
Compression
1. Piston moves up as valves shut, compressing the fuel air mixture
2. At the apex, the spark plug fires
Power stroke
1. Explosion forces piston down generating power
Exhaust
1. Exhaust valve opens as piston rises, forcing out exhaust

Q

Two stroke engines

A

Q

What are the two strokes?

A

v. Upstroke
1. Air/fuel compressed generating heat, at the apex, the spark plug fires
vi. Down stroke
1. Whenever the piston moves down, waste gases are pushed out and the resulting vacuum sucks in new fuel air mixture

Q

Blades for circular saws

A

Rescue
Steel Carbide tipped
Composite blade

21
Q

Blade safety

A

No sideload!
No stop blade rotation by sticking into something!
No cut above shoulder height!
No trim nails with saws!

22
Q

Rescue blade stats

A

a. Can cut concrete, brick, masonry block, wood, steel, iron, glass, plastic, wood
b. Steel core with industrial grade diamonds vacuum-brazed to the edge

d. Weighs 6lbs
e. Water cooleable
f. Primary blade on all engines, ladders and LTs.

23
Q

Rescue blade useage

A

g. Spin in direction of arrow, keeping RPMs high so it doesn’t bog down the cut, and keeping the blade straight to prevent side-loading
h. When cutting soft materials, the blade may glaze up. If that happens, cut briefly into something hard (concrete, brick, asphalt, etc) to deglaze them
i. For hurricane or safety glass, use high RPM for fastest cut

24
Q

Steel carbide tipped blade stats

A

a. Used for cutting wood and non-ferrous metals
b. Tips can break off
c. Replace when 1/3rd tips are missing
d. Run at full throttle prior to contacting surface

25
Q

d. Must read label correctly to ID blade type
e. 3.9in cutting depth with a new blade

26
Q

Composite Blade useage

A

f. Should be turning at idle when contacting work surface
g. Blotters should be used to avoid vibrations from saw to blade
h. Keep away from petroleum if possible as this damages the blade

27
Q

Blade changing

A
  1. Engine off
  2. Proper tools for saw

28
Q

Starting circular

  8. Disengage trigger latch and open choke
  9. Avoid flooding engine
  10. To turn off, switch to off, and make sure you control blade until it has fully stopped.
29
Q

How chainsaws work

A
  1. Chainsaws have a centrifugal clutch that operates the rotation of the chain. When the saw is at idle, a spring keeps the clutch shoe from rotating the sprocket drum.
  2. As the crankshaft turns faster and faster, the clutch shoe overcomes the spring by centrifugal force, grabbing the sprocket drum and rotating the chain.
30
Q

Chainsaw can cut through…..

A
  1. wood sheeting, asphalt shingles and sheets, fiberboard and foam board under layment, thin nonferrous metals.
  2. Will not cut masonry tiles, concrete, heavy metal sheeting, metal bars/pipes/supports, rock or clay roofing materials
31
Q

Operating a saw

A
  1. Clear area of bystanders and start saw
  2. Brace feet wide apart on parallel line to cut
  3. Bring up to full throttle
  4. Cut at a 45 degree angle
  5. Keep roller tip through material
  6. Cut along desired line, maintaining depth and angle
  7. Beware that kickback might happen when the tip makes contact with materials being cut!
32
