CAUTION: Lifting

To avoid personal injury or damage to the saw, lift the saw using a forklift or hoist with straps that have been positioned at the saw's center of gravity.

●For flexible products, the saw should be as close as possible to the puller.

●For rigid products, leave enough space to allow the product to flex during the cutting cycle. In some cases, it may be necessary to allow 6-8 feet between the puller and saw.

Align the saw with the extrusion line.

Measure the centerline height of the extrudate as it exits the extrusion die. Adjust all equipment on the extrusion line (sizing tank, cooling tanks, belt puller, and saw) to this height.
