Mounting on Horizontal Pipe
Always use a crane or hoist to lift and move the window
cutter.
Before lifting or moving the machine, do the following:
• Disconnect all hoses from the machine.
• Make sure the cutting head is fully retracted.
• Make sure the mounting chains are off the machine.
1.
If necessary, install all four lift hooks by screwing
them into the window cutter’s frame.
2.
Position the crane over the center of the window cut-
ter.
3.
Attach a chain or cable to each lift hook and connect
them to the crane.
Leave the crane
attached to the
machine and sup-
porting its weight until you
have the mounting chains
installed and tightened.
4.
Raise the crane slowly to lift the machine. Position the
machine over the pipe at the cutting location and
lower it onto the pipe.
5.
Wrap one of the mounting chains around the pipe at
one end of the window cutter and thread it through the
drive sprockets as shown in Figure 5-10.
Figure 5-2. Thread the chain over the outside sprock-
ets and between the inside sprocket and the pipe.
6.
Connect the ends of the chain with the supplied pin.
