Danger: As soon as the combustion engine is started, the cutting shaft, respectively the
cutting disc, starts rotating too!
Careless handling can lead to life-threatening injuries caused by the rotating cutting disc. Only operate the
machine with fully mounted blade guard.
Nobody is allowed to remain in the working area nor in the area where falling segments of the cutting disc
can be accelerated outwards (minimum safety distance 10m). If this safety distance cannot be respected, the
danger zone must be closed or be marked by warning signs.
Care for the whereabouts of cooling and rinsing water as well as of cutting sludge.
Cutting sludge must be collected, filtered and disposed of.
4.2 Starting the machine
Completely rise the machine (blade may have no ground contact). Start the engine as described in the
engines manual.
4.3 Cutting operation
Connect the water supply and slowly lower the machine with the hand wheel (1) till the blade has ground
contact. Putting down the machine to the desired cutting depth which is displaying on the cutting depth
indicator (2).
Before you lower the machine by means of the hand wheel (1), the mini ball valve is to be opened. Lower the
machine to such extent that you reach the desired cutting depth (2).
Pull then the indexing plunger (3) on the control panel, so that it snaps into the catch disk in order to fix the
desired cutting depth.
Work with even feed pressure. Too high feed pressure leads to overload of the engine, there is a risk that the
machine raises. Too low feed pressure polishes the segments and they become blunt.
During cuts displace the machine only with non-rotating blade (not running engine)!
Danger: Operating with too high feed the machine might rise out of cut! In emergency
situations cut off the engine as described in the engines manual!
