Diamond Chain Technology™ allows ICS® concrete chain saws to create openings less than 2’ (60 cm) square in less than 20 minutes, with square corners and no finish work required. Ring saws, on the other hand, come with several limitations. Unlike ICS concrete chain saws, plunging is not possible and the smallest opening is 14” (35 cm). In addition, square corners are only possible to 6” (15 cm) deep without grinding or chipping.

  3. The AC Unit is installed with less than 1/4” (.64 cm) gap on all sides, with perfectly square corners, a clean finish, and no chance for leaks. AC Unit Install - Step 3
 

Note: Pay attention to the sequence of cutting to avoid pinching the bar in the cut. Always start with the bottom cut first. Proper alignment of the score cut will help ensure straight cutting when at full depth.

Total elapsed time: 15 minutes.

Important - concrete weighs as much as150 lbs per cubic foot (2371 kg/cu. meter). Pay attention when removing cores larger that 1’/sq (.3m/sq) in diameter. Whenworking from elevated location, it may benecessary to strap core when cutting toavoid losing core prematurely.
