Cutting quickly

Wacker Neuson says that its new BFS floor saws combine high cutting power with good ergonomic design. The units are said to offer a 20% cutting productivity gain over competing products, as well as being more comfortable to use for extended periods due to the new design. The saws are designed to cut materials such as concrete or asphalt and offer a high torque delivery from engine to diamond edged cutting blade.

The saws are designed to cut materials such as concrete or asphalt and offer a high torque delivery from engine to diamond edged cutting blade. As the centre of gravity lies above the cutting shaft, working efficiency is further improved according to the firm. Features include individually adjustable handles, a 32litre water tank and a low operating weight.
