Manual TwinSaw CDC double cut saws
- 10 -
CST 225 blades: these blades are used for training and light industrial tasks. They are much
cheaper than the rescue blades and so reduce the cost of the needed training courses.
With the special Training Set you can use
these pricy saw blades on the large saws,
too.
4.2 Hints for regrinding the saw blades
The special blades of the double cut saw will be
regrinded in another way, not like normal saw
blades that are used at circular saws. So please
give the saw blades only in pairs to the grinding shop.
Make sure that the grinding shop has got the exactly grind instructions and so it is
zertificated. (also look at the following picture)

5. Handling
5.1 Handling of the saws
Store the machine in a dry, clean place. Build-up of dust and moisture on the motor windings
can eventually lead to current leakage and this will cause damage to the motor. Never store
the machine in such a way that it rests on the blades.
Store the machine so that the user can pick it up by the front hand-grip when removing it
from the storage case or mounting point.
Ensure that all accessories are kept tidy and within easy reach.
Allow plenty of time when re-ordering consummables such as blade mounting bolts and
lubricant!
5.2 Preparing the machine
The machine is low-sparking – but it is not spark-free. It must not be used if there are
flammable gases or liquids (e.g. petrol spillages at accident scenes) present nearby.
The air vent allows access to the electric motor. In heavy rain a cover should be used to
protect the saw and operator.
Make sure that the mains plug is not connected to the power supply.
Grasp the machine by the front hand-grip and remove from the case or mounting point,
keeping the blade end away from the body.
Check that the power cable is neatly contained alongside the machine.
Check the following:
The blades are tight and in good working order, Spare blades are available
There are no obstructions between the blades
There are no signs of external damage, dirt or moisture
The air filter inlets are clear
The mains supply/ generatoris of the correct rating
The 230 Volt machine is protected by a current breaker with a slow 16A fuse
Place the machine on its side or with the blades uppermost and insert the plug into the
power supply socket
Allow the machine to start-up for about 10 seconds and listen for any unusual noises.
