A chain saw for aggregate material has a nozzle that provides a spray of water to that portion of the saw chain that is traveling between the guide bar and the drive sprocket. The flooding provided by the nozzle washes slurry off of the saw chain. A basin with inclined baffles is provided to collect the slurry carried by the saw chain into the housing. Apertures are provided in the basin for discharging the collected slurry.
