- Make sure that lower blade guard is installed with
the Cut+Bevel Diamond disc. Regular blade
cover does not have big enough opening for the
Cut+Bevel Diamond disc.
WARNING
: Regular lower blade cover
must
be installed if saw is used with regular saw blade
with cutting teeth.
- Ensure that motor unit is in the upright position.
- Check that the disc is correctly fitted, in good
condition and suitable for the material to be cut.
- Ensure the pipe saw guide wheels rotate.
- Ensure the support wheels rotate.
- Check the operation of the lower blade guard.
- Ensure the pipe is empty.
Connection to the mains power supply
Ensure that the mains voltage is the same as
indicated on the rating plate (Fig A / 13). Connect
the pipe saw to the power outlet only after having
checked the above points first.
Setting the pipe on supports
Use the system supports when cutting pipes. This
will ensure safe working and optimum results. Work
on flat surface. Place the pipe on two supports so
that the cutting point is between the supports. Place
two more support under both ends of the pipe.
Check that all support wheels contact the pipe
(adjust if required e.g. with pieces of lumber) (Fig
B1). When cutting short and light weight pipes, place
the supports so that the cutting point is outside
supports (Fig B2). Support the pipe with your left leg,
if required. Proper arrangements will prevent the
blade from jamming as the pipe is cut through.
Attaching the pipe saw to the pipe
Open the pipe saw's gripper unit enough to suit the
diameter of the pipe by rotating the adjustment
handle located at the rear of the saw (Fig C / 1). If
you are using laser pointer for position, Cut+Bevel
Diamond disc 165 will cut the pipe 15mm to the right
of the laser line. Fasten the pipe saw to the pipe by
turning the gripper adjustment handle until the
gripper grips firmly the pipe to be cut (Fig C / 2).
Lock the mechanism by turning the gripper safety
(Fig C / 3). Hold the pipe in place and ensure that
pipe saw moves freely in the direction the pipe is
fed. For sake of safety ensure the pipe saw leads
are to the left of the pipe saw. The pipe saw is now
ready for cutting.
