The Wacker Neuson Blade Guard Lock is a genuine OEM component designed for the BFS 2020AS and BFS 1318AS series walk-behind floor saws. As a direct factory part, it is built to the exact specifications of the original hardware, ensuring a correct, secure fit within the blade guard assembly. This part is confirmed to fit both the BFS 2020AS Saw and the BFS 1318AS Self-propelled Walk-behind Saw. Replacing a worn or damaged Blade Guard Lock promptly keeps the blade guard secured in its proper position during cutting operations.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Locking Integrity — Manufactured to the original retention spec, so the guard locks and holds position under the vibration and stress of active floor sawing.
- Drop-In Replacement — Matches the original mounting interface on the guard assembly; installs directly without modifications to the guard housing or hardware.
- Confirmed Fitment — Verified for the BFS 2020AS Saw and BFS 1318AS Self-propelled Walk-behind Saw floor saw families.
- Keeps the Guard Secured During Cuts — A functioning Blade Guard Lock holds the guard firmly in place, preventing unwanted movement or displacement while the blade is spinning.
- Blade Guard Safety Compliance — The blade guard system on a floor saw is a critical safety component; a failed or missing lock can allow the guard to shift, exposing the operator to blade contact risk. Replace at the first sign of wear or failure.
The Blade Guard Lock is the fastening mechanism that holds the blade guard securely in its closed, protective position on a walk-behind floor saw. During operation, the rotating diamond or abrasive blade generates significant force and vibration, and the lock prevents the guard from rattling loose or shifting out of alignment. When this part fails or goes missing, the guard can no longer be reliably secured, creating a safety hazard and potentially taking the saw out of service until it is replaced.
