exactCUT P400 Operating Instructions
Tips
Diamond blade should only be used for cutting cast
iron pipe. It is not recommended to cut cast iron with
TCT or Cermet blades.
Clean the inside of the blade guards after cutting
plastic pipe.
Smaller pipe is easily cut by rotating the pipe by
hand either on a table or on the floor. Please
note: rotate pipe towards you when rotating by hand
and be careful not to rotate too fast.
Check the condition of the blade regularly.
The cutting procedure is divided into two stages;
first saw through the pipe wall, then complete the
cut by sawing around it.
Do not overload the saw by cutting continuously.
The saw will be overheated and the metal parts
can become burning hot. This will also damage the
motor and the blade. The rule is 2.5 minutes in use
and 7.5 minutes rest.
Keep the feeding speed constant. This will extend
the lifetime of the blade. For example cutting time
for a steel pipe diameter of 6’’ (170mm), and a wall
thickness of 1/5’’ (5mm), is 15-20 seconds, and for
a cast-iron pipe diameter of 4’’ (110mm), with a wall
thickness of 1/6’’ (4mm) is 20 to 25 seconds.
Always keep the motor unit in the upright position.
The yellow mark of the unlock button is then visible.
Never place the Pipe Cut Saw on the pipe in the
locked / cutting position.
Factors that affect the lifetime of the saw blade:
•
material of the pipe
• correct blade type for material being cut
•
correct motor speed setting
•
wall thickness of the pipe
•
feeding speed
•
smoothness of the pipe
• user’s general skills
•
cleanness of the pipe
•
rust on the pipe
•
welded seam in the pipe
•
blade speed
Factors that affect the straightness of the cut:
•
condition of the saw blade
•
wall thickness of the pipe
•
feeding speed
•
smoothness of the feed
• user’s general skills
•
cleanness of the pipe
•
roundness of the pipe
•
gripper unit too loose or too tight
•
blade assembled too tight
