Cut to the Chase with Sanders Saws’ Elite Pavement Saw

Life just got easier for pro cutters.

The SS-7060 walk-behind pavement saw from Sanders Saws features unique, stay-level handles (SLH) that remain level regardless of the saw’s operating position. These handles, coupled with the saw’s moving center of gravity for optimal balance in all cutting applications, minimize operator fatigue and significantly reduce the risk of back injury while boosting productivity.

The saw is tailor-made for professional cutters engaged in road work and repair plus those on any job where high-production cutting is required.

Fueled by a 60-horsepower Deutz diesel engine, the SS-7060 saw has a 36-inch (91 centimeters) blade capacity and a maximum cutting depth of 15 inches (38 cm.). The unit weighs 1,725 pounds (782 kilograms).

The saw has only seven lubrication points that require service at 125 hours. These lubrication intervals match bladeshaft spindle assembly, propulsion drive system, and engine oil service intervals thus eliminating most daily maintenance requirements.

The SS Series pavement saw features a patent-pending clutchless bladeshaft disengaging system whereby with a flick of a switch the bladeshaft rotation can be stopped or started while the engine is running. This improves safety for the saw operator and others within the immediate area while eliminating the risk of damage to the saw or blade.

The saw also showcases a vibration control mounting system to cut handle bar vibration and related injuries all while extending component life. In addition, automatic parking brakes for improved safety and an electrical depth stop to lift and control the cutting depth come standard. A night light is optional.
