The Wacker Neuson Deflector is a genuine OEM component designed for the BFS 1318AS self-propelled walk-behind floor saw. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this deflector meets the original equipment specification for a direct, hassle-free installation. Confirmed fitment for the BFS 1318AS ensures you receive the correct part the first time.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction: — Formed to the original profile and material grade, ensuring the deflector channels debris and slurry away from the operator and cutting zone exactly as intended by the factory design.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement: — Matches the original mounting points on the BFS 1318AS, so installation aligns without reworking brackets or hardware.
- Confirmed Fitment for BFS 1318AS: — Verified for the BFS 1318AS self-propelled walk-behind saw; use part number 5000170782 to confirm compatibility before ordering.
- Operator Protection: — A correctly fitted deflector keeps blade wash, water, and cutting debris directed away from the operator and surrounding work area — critical on a wet-cutting floor saw running at full depth.
- Sustained Cutting Accuracy: — When the deflector is intact and properly positioned, water and slurry management stays consistent, protecting the blade line of sight and surrounding surfaces during precision concrete and asphalt cuts.
The deflector on a walk-behind floor saw serves as a shield and directional guide for the high-velocity mix of water, slurry, and debris thrown off by a spinning diamond blade. Mounted close to the blade guard, it redirects this material away from the operator and prevents it from fouling the machine's drive components or obscuring the cut line. When a deflector cracks, warps, or goes missing, slurry spray becomes unpredictable — increasing operator exposure and making it harder to track the cut path accurately. Replacing a worn deflector promptly keeps the saw operating cleanly and the operator protected throughout the cut.
