In wet cutting, the disc is wetted at an equal rate on both sides by
a trickle of water. DOLMAR offers the right accessories for all wet
cutting applications (see also "SPECIAL ACCESSORIES").
-
Remove foreign objects such as sand, stones and nails found
within the working area.
Caution: Watch out for electric wires
and cables!
The rapid rotation of the cutting disc at the point of contact
throws fragments out of the cut groove at high speed. For
your safety, swing the protection hood down as far as pos-
sible
(23)
, so that material fragments are thrown forward,
away from the operator.
-
Mark the cut, and then make a groove about 5 mm (just under
1/5") along the entire length of the planned cut. This groove will
then guide the Power Cut accurately guring the actual cutoff.
NOTE:
For long, straight cuts we recommend using a trolley (24, see
also "SPECIAL ACCESSORIES"). This makes it much easier to
guide the unit straight.
- Perform the cut with a steady back-and-forth motion.
-
When cutting slabs to size, you need not cut through the entire
material thickness (creating unnecessary dust). Instead, simply
make a shallow groove, and then knock off the excess material
cleanly on a
ß
at surface (25).
CAREFUL!
When cutting into lengths, cutting through material, making cutouts,
etc., always make sure to plan the direction and sequence of cuts
in such a way that the disc does not get jammed by the cut-off
piece, and that no persons can be injured by falling pieces.
Transport and storage
-
Always turn off the Power Cut when transporting it or
moving it from place to place on a site
(26)
.
-
Never carry or move the unit with the engine on or the
disc moving!
-
Carry the unit only by the tubular (middle) handle with the cut-
ting disc pointing behind you (26). Avoid touching the exhaust
muf
ß
er (burn hazard!)
- When moving the Power Cut over longer distances, use a
wheelbarrow or wagon.
- When transporting the Power Cut in a vehicle, make sure it is
securely positioned in such a way that no fuel can leak out.
Always remove the cutting disc before transporting the unit in
a vehicle.
- The Power Cut should be stored safely in a dry place. It must
not be left outdoors! Always dismount the cutting disc before
storage. Keep the Power Cut away from children.
-
Before long-term storage and before shipping the Power
Cut, follow the instructions in the chapter on "Periodic
care and maintenance". ALWAYS empty the fuel tank and
run the carburetor dry.
- When putting cutting discs in storage, be careful to:
• Clean and dry them well.
CAUTION:
Do
NOT
clean synthetic
resin cutting discs with water or other
ß
uids!
• Store them lying down
ß
at.
• Avoid dampness, freezing temperatures, direct sunshine,
high temperatures and temperature
ß
uctuations, as these
can cause breakage and splintering.
• Before re-using a resin cutting disc, make sure of the use-by
(expiration) date (quarter and year, stamped on the arbor
ring). If this date has been exceeded, do
NOT
use the cutting
disc.
-
Always check new cutting discs or cutting discs that have
been in storage to make sure that they are free of defects
and
before the
Þ
rst cut test-run the tool at top speed for at
least 60 seconds. Keep body parts and people well away out
of range of the direction of the cutting disc during this test.
