exactCUT P400 Operating Instructions
Operation
It is most important that the base of the steering device does not
touch the pipe but rather that the wheel pairs support the saw (Fig.
E3). Finally lock the adjustment with the safety screw (Fig.E1) so
that the adjustments do not after during the sawing.
Pull the lever on the moving bladeguard towards you. (Fig.F and
A/5} Place the Exact P400 horizontally on top of the pipe so that
a suitable setting mark for the blade that is in the machine is
positioned at the cutting point (Fig F).Hold the pipe in place and
ensure that the Exact P400 moves freely in the direction the pipe is
fed. To ensure safety the Exact P400 leads should be to the left and
front of the pipe. The Exact P400 is now ready for use.
Piercing the pipe wall
Strive to keep the P400 in a horizontal position on top of the pipe
during the entire sawing process. Take a firm hold of the operating
handle with your right hand, start the motor by releasing the locking
lever on the power switch (Fig.G/1) and push the power switch all
the way down(Fig. G/2). Before starting to saw wait until the blade
reaches full speed. Pierce the pipe wall by pressing the operating
handle down slowly until the blade has cut through the pipe wall (at
this stage the pipe must not rotate) and the motor unit has locked
into sawing position. When the UNLOCK button is locked, i.e.the
yellow mark disappears (Fig.H), the Exact P400 is locked and you
can safely start sawing around the pipe. When using a CutBevel
blade piercing must be performed especially calmly.
Sawing around the pipe
Start sawing by rotating the pipe with your left hand towards yourself
(Fig.I) and keep the Exact P400 stable and in a horizontal position
in relation to the pipe (Fig.J).Continue sawing by rotating the pipe
calmly and at the most even speed possible towards yourself until
the pipe is cut off.
If you use a CutBevel blade continue sawing approximately 5cm
after the pipe has bean cut off. This will ensure an even bevel
around the entire pipe. If you bevel an additional round you
will get even better result. Large bevels have to be done always
with two rounds. First round should be cut so that the bevel is
not complete, and with second round the steering unit should be
adjusted to the desired bevel length. Note that the temperature has
effect to the hardness of plastic
The saw can also be steered manually if the blade does not coincide
with the initial cut When you see the starting point of the cut, turn the
saw at a gentle angle towards the initialcut until the pipe is cut off
