Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured by Husqvarna to original design tolerances, meaning correct geometry and material grade for a blade guard that seats and secures exactly as intended.
- Direct Replacement Fit — Mounts to the same attachment points as the original guard, allowing straightforward installation on FS5000D and FS5000 floor saws.
- Confirmed Compatibility — Verified fitment for the FS5000D and FS5000 flat saw models, two of Husqvarna's heavy-duty walk-behind slab saws.
- Restored Blade Enclosure — A properly fitted blade guard maintains the correct clearance around the cutting blade, supporting clean, controlled slab cutting passes.
- Operator Safety Compliance — The blade guard is a critical safety component on any floor saw. Replacing a cracked, broken, or missing guard restores the protective barrier that shields the operator from blade contact and debris ejection during cutting operations.
The blade guard on a walk-behind floor saw serves as the primary physical barrier between the rotating diamond blade and the operator and surrounding area. It channels debris downward, contains slurry or dust at the cutting zone, and prevents accidental contact with the blade during operation. A damaged or missing guard compromises operator safety and may put the machine out of compliance with job site safety requirements — making prompt replacement essential rather than optional.
