633GC OPERATOR’S MANUAL

 

 

PRE-CUT CHECKLIST

•Proper Chain Installation: The bumper should lead the segment into the cut, double bumper chains may be mounted in either direction.

•Proper Chain Tension: The chain should be tight but easily pulled around the guide bar by hand.

•Ensure all safety devices are properly mounted and functional and that all controls are in proper working order.

•Be sure there are no obstructions (plumbing, electrical conduit, air ducts) and no unnecessary people present.

•Always wear protective clothing, including hard hat, eye protection, hearing protection, non-slip safety boots, and gloves. Avoid wearing loose fitting clothing.

•Adequate Water Supply and Pressure: Minimum Flow: 2 gpm (8 lpm)

Minimum Water Pressure: 20 psi (1.4 bar)

•Diamond chains with SealPro® require a minimum water pressure of 20 psi (1.4 bar).

IMPORTANT

PLANNING THE CUT

The single most important factor an operator can control to increase chain life is to use adequate water pressure. Insufficient water supply will result in excessive wear to the chain, which can lead to loss of strength and chain breakage.

•Select the proper chain type for the material being cut.

•Outline the cut with a permanent marker for a visual cutting guide.

•Avoid pinching the guide bar and chain. Always cut the bottom of an opening first, then top, and then the sides. Save the easiest cut for last.

•For the straightest cuts use the “Step Cut” method. First score the entire cut line approximately a half-inch deep using the nose of the bar. Next, deepen the cut by about two inches. Then plunge all the way through and complete the cut using the Wallwalker®.

•Be sure cut concrete cannot fall and injure operator or bystanders. Concrete is very heavy, one cubic foot = 12”x12”x12” = 150 lbs. (30cm x 30cm x 30cm = 68kg).

•Check for live electrical wiring near the cutting area or in the concrete to avoid electrocution.
