Exact PipeCut V1000
pipe saw operating
instructions
Before use
Check that the motor unit is in the upright
position so that the yellow mark on the unlock button
is visible.
Check that the blade is suitable for the material of the
duct that is intended to be cut.
Check that the blade is correctly in place and that it is
in good condition.
Check that the guide wheels are rotating.
Check that the support wheels are rotating.
Check that the lower blade guard is moving correctly
up and down.
Check that the duct intended to be cut is empty.
Connecting the Exact Pipe Cut V1000 to the main
power supply
Ensure that the mains voltage is the same as indicated
on the rating plate
(Figure A/13)
Connect the Exact Pipe Cut V1000 to the power outlet
only after having checked these operating instructions.
Setting and marking the cutting point
Mark the cutting point, but remember that you have
to cut the duct so that you approach the duct seam
towards the closed side of it
(Figure C)
. One mark is
enough. You do not need to mark all the way around
the duct.
Setting the supports for the duct to be cut
The supports for the duct are not delivered with the
Exact Pipe Cut V1000 but they are recommended
accessories. The supports maximise safety and
optimise the cutting result. They also reduce the size
of the required space for cutting the duct. The cutting
should always be done on a
fl
at surface.
Place the duct on three supports so that the middle
support is directly beneath where the duct is intended
to be cut
(Figure B)
. Make sure that all of the supports
are in contact with the duct. Proper arrangements
prevent the saw blade from jamming in the duct in the
fi
nal stage of the cutting process.
In case you are not using the supports you need to do
the following. Make sure that there is enough space for
the duct to rotate a full circle. Place the Exact Pipe Cut
V1000 so that the electric cord is hanging in front of
the duct from where you are standing
(Figure C)
. Also
make sure that there is enough loose cord to ensure
free movement for the duct. If necessary, use a suitable
extension cord.
To start sawing
Open the safety screw
(Figure D1)
and adjust the
wheel pairs in the Pipe Cut steering device according
to the diameter of the duct by rotating the adjustment
knob on the back of the Pipe Cut (Fig. D2)
