Transport & Handling
1.1 Transport
SCANTOOL RS 100/RSX 100 Pipe Notcher is delivered mounted on a pallet with the
following dimensions:
120 x 80 x 154 cm
The Pipe Notcher is packed in a protective container.
1.2 Handling
The SCANTOOL Pipe Notcher can easily be transported on the pallet.
1.3 Installation
Remove the packing and open the cover lid (A) (as described in part 2.3) of the Pipe
Notcher by loosening the safety screw on top of the lid. Take out the content such as
contact rollers, grinding belts, and dismounted handles.
Place the pipe notcher on a firm and level ground. Secure the machine to the ground by
using the four fittings which are used for securing the pipe notcher to the pallet.
Mount the handles as follows:
Mount the short (200 mm) handle on the feed mechanism (J) (
see fig.: 1.1),
and the long
(260 mm) handle on the rocking lever (R).
The machine is provided with a no-volt release protection switch and connected according
to the needed voltage. The electrical connection must be performed by an authorized
electrician. It is important to ensure that the motor (and fan/ventilator) has the correct
direction of rotation (see arrow on the cover lid).
Important that this machine is bolted to the floor.
Before the machine is bolted to the floor the machine it is necessary to level out the
machine. It can be necessary to make adjustment with distance pieces underneath
the machine if the floor is not in level. The adjustment is necessary to avoid the
machine for twisting and then pull uneven.
Mount the SCANTOOL RSX 100 Pipe Notcher with suction hose on the exhaust pipe
connected with the exhaust system. If the central exhaust system is not connected with a
cyclone, the exhaust system from the pipe notcher must be connected with a cyclone
which is then connected to the central exhaust system. It is necessary to control that the V-
tool rest (H) has a distance of at least 2 mm from the belt, and that the handle (K) is
tightened. Open the cover lid (A)(as described in 2.3) and turn the drive wheel by hand to
adjust the running alignment of the belt with the handle (B) until it runs straight on the
contact roller (E). At the same time check that the adjustable spark arrester (C) has about
5 mm clearance to the grinding belt. Tighten the spark arrester with the handle (D). Check
that the handle (O) for the rocking lever is tightened.
