Exact PipeCut P400 pipecutting system
operating instructions
Before operating the exactCUT P400 please do as follows
•
Check that the motor unit is in the upright position so that the
yellow mark on the lock button is visible
•
Check that the there is correct blade in the machine. Check that
the blade is correctly in place and tightly fixed well and that it is in
good condition.
•
Cut Bevel blade might get loose because of vibration during
cutting.
•
Check that the guide wheels are rotating.
•
Check that the support wheels are rotating.
• Check that the lower blade guard is moving correctly.
• Check that the pipe intended to be cut is empty.
Connecting the Exact P400 to the main power supply
Ensure that the mains voltage is the same as indicated on the rating
plate (Figure A/14) Connect the Exact P400 to the power outlet only
after having checked the list above.
Setting the supports for the pipe to be cut.
Always use Exact pipe supports when sawing.The supports maximise
safety and optimise the cutting result.The cutting should always be
done on a flat surface. Place the pipe on the sawing support so that
the cutting point is between the wheel pairs. Place the single supports
underneath both ends of the pipe. Make sure that all of the wheels are
in contact with the pipe. If necessary wedge the holders with a piece
of wood.(Fig.B) Shorter sections (under 25cm/10”) can be cut with
two supports placed so that the cutting point is outside the supports.
(Fig.C) By sawing in the correct order you prevent the saw blade from
jamming in the pipe in the final stage of the cutting process.
Setting and marking the cutting point
Use a marker to mark the cutting point. There are two setting points
on the moving blade-guard of the saw. One is for the blade that only
cuts the pipe off (Fig.D/1) while the other is for the blade that cuts and
provides a bevel on the end of the pipe. (Fig. D/2)
To start sawing
Open the safety screw (Fig.E1) and adjust the wheel pairs in the Exact
P400 steering device according to the diameter of the pipe by rotating
the adjustment knob on the back of the Exact P400 (Fig.E2}. The scale
on the saw is approximate.User can fine tune the length of the bevel
with the adjustment knob. Please notice that the smaller the diameter
of the pipe the more sensitive the adjustment of the depth of the bevel
will be.
