WARNING:
Failure to correctly set the
stopper will result in excessive wear of
cutter blocks and may cause cut end
to fly out.
CUTTING
1. Insert rebar between stopper bolt and front cutter block, making sure
that it is properly seated in U-shaped support. Keeping rebar at right angles
(90 degrees) to front cutter block.
2.
WARNING:
Flying ends are a hazard to all personnel in the vicinity. Erect
safety screens.
3. Pull trigger-switch and keep depressed while piston advances and
rebar is cut (If the switch is released at an intermediate point, the piston
will stop).
4. When cut is completed, release the switch. The piston retracts
automatically (Note that the switch cannot be re-activated until the piston
has fully retracted).
RELEASE VALVE
In the event that piston should fail to return
automatically for any reason (e.g. the piston
has become jammed by some reasons), use
4 mm hexagon key provided to slightly loosen
release valve. Make sure to tighten the release
valve before making the next cut.
POINTS OF ATTENTION
1. Be especially careful when cutting off short lengths (30cm or less) as the
cut end tends to fly out.
WARNING:
Flying ends are a hazard to all personnel in the vicinity. Erect
safety screens.
2. Do not cover air vents.
CARE:
If vents are covered, motor will overheat and may burn out.
3. If hydraulic oil exceeds 70 degrees C (158 degrees F) in temperature,
power will drop. Allow the tool to cool before resuming operation. Be
particularly careful in summer when the aluminum pump case heats up
quicker.
4. If a drop in power is observed and motor is unusually hot, check battery.
5. If piston should ever fail to retract completely, push rear cutter block
backwards to manually retract piston or check under piston to remove any
debris keeping the piston from retracting.
CAUTION:
Use a rebar or flat metal bar for this purpose.
Never push cutter block with any part of the hand, even if gloved. Once
piston has been retracted, pull trigger-switch long enough to partially
Release value
