Oil Flow and Pressure
Your new HYCON cut-off saw is designed for a certain oil flow, working pressure and
maximum pressure. A too high oil flow and/or a too high pressure results in overload
of the cut-off saw, meaning that the lifetime of your new HYCON tool will not be as
expected, and that your service and repair costs will be too high.
It is important to check that the cut-off saw is not supplied with an oil flow beyond
its design capacity, that the working pressure is correct and that the maximum
allowed pressure is not exceeded.
On page 6 you will find the technical data, and on page 9 there is a guide to connec-
tion to hydraulic power sources and how to ensure that the cut-off saw is not over-
loaded.
Useful Information re. the Use of Cut-Off Saw
The HYCON cut-off saw is a compact tool with great performance. There are no
other cut-off saws on the market with higher performance in relation to size.
It is the perfect tool for cutting in all types of concrete, brick wall, asphalt etc.
The cut-off saw can be mounted in a HYCON cart, but most frequently it is used for
handheld cutting jobs. This is only possible due to an automatic safety function that
makes the cut-off saw stop immediately if the disc jams.
The cut-off saw has two handles for optimum operator comfort.
The saw is unaffected by water and can be operated in all working environments,
even for cutting under water.
The cut-off saw can also be connected to excavators and other machines. We re-
commend the use of a HYCON oil flow divider, which protects against too high oil
flow, too high pressure and backwards rotations. See page 9.
The cut-off saw is designed for both dry and wet cutting. Usually the best result is
achieved by wet cutting, as this cools the disc and removes the bore meal. This re-
sults in as little wear on the disc as possible.
The utility values of your HYCON cut-off saw are numerous, and you will be pleased
with your investment.
