Product Overview
The Tomahawk Power TFS6H is a 6" early entry green concrete saw designed for cutting control joints in fresh concrete slabs before random cracking can develop. Powered by a Honda GX120 engine, this walk-behind concrete saw cuts up to 1-3/16" deep and is built for sidewalks, driveways, patios, garages, parking lots, residential slabs, and commercial flatwork. With polyurethane wheels for fresh concrete, a triangular arbor, enclosed blade guard, manual depth control, and an OSHA-compliant vacuum port, the TFS6H is a practical saw for concrete crews, rental fleets, flatwork contractors, and finishers who need clean early-entry cuts.
