Bobcat WS18 Concrete Saw

BOBCAT WS18 – WHEEL SAW ATTACHMENTPowered by the carrier’s high-flow hydraulics, the wheel saw cuts through asphalt, concrete, and other materials to produce a trench for installing utility lines. The trench cleaner (available with 6 in. and 8 in. wheels only), which is raised and lowered hydraulically, assures a clean trench for installation. Use the hydraulic depth adjustment gauge to deliver a consistent, uniform cut depth. For operating close to curbs and walls, the hydraulic side-shift allows the attachment to shift flush with any nearby object for a close cut.Operate with minimal damage to the surrounding jobsite and eliminate the mess of excavation. The wheel saw attachment provides a more precise cut than air or hydraulic hammers and is easier to transport than dedicated machines. The wheel saw is the ideal attachment for road repair crews and rental facilities.HIGHLIGHTS• Cut through a variety of hard surfaces including asphalt and concrete • Powered by the carrier’s high-flow hydraulics, the wheel saw cuts trenches for utility lines • The trench cleaner (available with 6-inch and 8-inch wheels only) assures a clean trench for installation • Hydraulic depth adjustment gauge delivers a consistent, uniform cut depth • Operates close to curbs and walls for a close cut • Provides a more precise cut than air or hydraulic hammers • Ideal for road repair crews and rental facilitiesFEATURESCARBIDE-TIPPED BITSThe bits are carbide-tipped for longer tooth wear and maximum uptime protection. HYDRAULIC SIDE SHIFTFor operating close to curbs and walls, the hydraulic side-shift allows the attachment to shift flush with any nearby object. HYDRAULIC DEPTH ADJUSTMENTThe depth gauge provides for uniform depth control while cutting. SIDE CUTTER TEETHThe side cutter teeth reduce wear to the side of the wheel. SKISThe full length of the skis provides maximum stability and cutting accuracy. SPOIL DEFLECTORSThe spoil deflectors push milled materials away from the trench, delivering a clean trench for installation. STORAGE STANDStorage stands improve an operator’s ability to attach and remove the wheel saw and raise the skis when the attachment is not in use. TRENCH CLEANERHydraulically controlled, the trench cleaner ensures a clean trench is left behind when operating the wheel saw (6- and 8-inch wheels only). HOUR METERKeep track of service hours and component life on the deluxe instrumentation panel of Bobcat M-Series loaders.TOP TASKS • Cut trenches for installing water, gas, electrical, utility, and fiber-optic cable lines • Prepare pavement for repairs • Cut through asphalt, rebar, concrete, frozen ground, and wire mesh HOW IT WORKS The hydraulic motor turns the carbide tipped wheel to cut material which then exits through openings on the side of the wheel saw. A hydraulic cylinder controls the depth of cut. A second hydraulic cylinder raises and lowers the trench cleaner to provide a clean bottom trench.Certain specification(s) are based on engineering calculations and are not actual measurements.
