Automatic Blade Brake

Echidna was the first to design and introduce an hydraulic braking system to its excavator saw range.

The automatic blade brake stops the blade almost instantaneously when the power to the saw has been removed.

Operation

The Echidna automatic blade brake operates when power to the saw drive is reduced.

It quickly slows the blade to a stop using the internal hydraulic circuit.

The added advantage is that the brake operates automatically, and stays on when power is removed from the saw. The blade is locked at all times unless the saw is in use.

This is an important safety feature designed and developed by Echidna.

No wear parts

Being integral to the hydraulic circuit of the rock saw, the brake does not contain parts that wear. This means there is no maintenance required, no periodic replacement of parts, and no contamination of the the working parts of the saw with abrasive powder from worn brakes.
