CUTTING
4.
Erect safety screens to protect co-workers from possible flying ends. Place a safety
screen under the tool when working in high places.
WARNING:
Flying ends are hazard to all personnel in the vicinity. Erect safety
screens.
5.
Insert rebar between the stopper and front cutter block, making sure that it is
properly seated in the U-shaped support. Keeping rebar at right angles (90 degrees)
to front cutter block.
6.
Press the safety switch lock (white button). Pull the trigger-switch and keep
depressed while the piston advances and cut rebar. (If the switch is released at an
intermediate point, the piston will stop.)
7.
When the cut is complete, release (OFF) the switch and open release valve lever.
RELEASE VALVE
8.
The release valve retracts the piston at anytime during the
cutting or bending operation.
(Do not push the trigger switch and release valve at the same
time.) When doing repeated cuts, only retract the piston as far
back as needed to place another piece of rebar between the
cutting blocks. This will save you time because the piston does
not have to fully retract in order to do repeated cuts.
CAUTION: The bending roller
rotates 180 degrees during the cutting operation. Do not try to bend and cut rebar at the
same time.
Keep hands away from moving parts while operating.
9.
Disconnect DBC-16H from outlet when not in use and before cleaning, adjusting
or servicing. Do not disconnect plug from outlet by pulling the cord. Always check
that the switch OFF before plugging in
