DW Guillotine 208

42

Part No. 29-MAN-00, Rev. A

E.H. Wachs

Cutting Operation

Water is required to cool and 
lubricate the wire during cut-
ting, and to reduce airborne 
cutting debris. Do not operate 
the machine without a water 
source for the sprayer. During 
operation, make sure that 
water is sprayed continuously 
on the wire at the cut loca-
tion.

Always wear eye and ear pro-

tection when operating the 
DW Guillotine.

The DW 208 can cut human 
flesh if contact is made while 
the wire is rotating. Keep 
clear of all moving parts when 
operating the machine.

1.

A hand sprayer tank and hose are provided to supply 

coolant. Attach the hose from the tank to the coolant 
fitting on the saw. If a worksite water supply is avail-
able, you can attach a garden hose to the fitting.

Figure 3-29.  Attach the hand sprayer tank or a gar-
den hose to the coolant connector.

2.

Turn the feed handle to advance the bow down until 
the wire is close to the pipe surface.

The saw will start if the lever 
is in the ON position when 
you start the HPU. Always 
keep the handle in the OFF 
position when the machine is 
not cutting.

3.

Make sure the ON/OFF knob is in the OFF position.

CAUTION

WARNING

Coolant (connect to coolant 
tank or water supply)
