SETTINGS AND ADJUSTMENTS
CAUTION! The machine should be upright. If the machine lies on its side the weight of the blade makes it difficult to make a correct adjustment.
•Tighten the knobs fully and the machine is ready to use.
Hydraulic hoses | |
! | WARNING! The power cutter must not be |
connected to a hydraulic pressure | |
exceeding 150 bar (3000 psi). | |
•Before connecting the hoses: Ensure that the couplings are clean, both on the machine and the hoses.
•Connect the pressure hose (A) from the hydraulic system to the female coupling on the machine.
•Connect the other hydraulic coupling (B) to the male coupling. This hose leads oil back to the container.
CAUTION! Two hose kits can be connected when hose lengths exceeding 18 m are required. Do not connect more than two kits as the couplings cause large power loss. See the Technical data.
CAUTION! Make sure that the hoses can not be loosened accidentally by turning the safety catches on the couplings to the locked position before using the machine.
WARNING! When the machine is in operation
!the hoses are under extreme pressure. Do not try to connect or disconnect the hoses when the hydraulic system is operational.
This can result in serious personal injuries.
Water hose
Connect the water hose to the water supply. The water flow is activated by opening the check valve. Minimum water flow: 4 l/min Note that the machine’s hose nipple is fitted with a filter.
Water supply
When you press in the switch lock (A) the water valve opens.
The water valve remains open and the switch lock (A) remains pressed in as long as the switch (B) is held pressed in.
Water dosage
The water flow can be adjusted during operations with your thumb.
Ample water flow is needed for maximal blade life.
CAUTION! The water pressure and water flow is extremely important for the blade’s cooling and service life. Inadequate cooling shortens the life of the guide rollers, drive wheel and the blade.
