8.0 CUTTER OPERATION
8.1 Foreseen Use and Residual Risks
NOTICE:
WARNING
Failure to observe and comply with the
instructions and precautions contained in the
following paragraphs could result in death or serious
personal injury.
1. The cutter is designed for cutting round ropes and
cables. Be certain that the properties of the material
to be cut do not exceed the stated maximum limits
applicable to your cutter model. Refer to Section 2.1.
2. The cutter may be used only when connected to a
compatible Enerpac hydraulic pump.
3. Operators must observe the instructions in this
manual in order to minimize the risk of accidents. In
particular, operators must pay attention when working
in conditions that could cause:
• Possible burns from overheated parts.
• Injury due to incorrect positioning or inadequate lifting
or moving.
• Injury caused by splinters discharged from the cable
or other work piece.
NOTICE:
WARNING People remaining in the vicinity of the
cutter while it is working are subject to the risk of
flying debris (dangerous objects, etc.). Serious
personal injury could result.
4. Incorrect Uses:
• Cutter must not be used for purposes other than those
indicated in this document.
• Cutter must not be used in areas subject to the risk
of explosion.
8.2 Positioning and Transporting the Cutter
• Before inserting material to be cut inside the cutting
head, be certain that the cutter is positioned on a solid
and stable work surface of sufficient weight rating
capacity. Refer to Section 2.2 for cutter weight.
• Position the cutter as needed using the cutter
positioning handles and appropriately rated lifting
equipment (if needed). See Figure 1.
• If it is necessary to move or transport the cutter, use
only the supplied lifting eyebolts. See Figure 6. Use
appropriately rated lifting equipment.
NOTICE:
WARNING
Because the cutter components are
very heavy, there is a risk of cuts, crushing or broken
bones. To avoid accidents, use care when working
with the cutter. Serious personal injury may result if
the cutter is not properly supported and handled in
an appropriate way.
