Operating the CSB1 D13
5.1 Site of work
Before you start working, please check the following points:
Remove from the site anything, which might hinder the working procedure.
Make sure the site is sufficiently well lit.
Make sure you have a continual adequate view of the working area so you can intervene in the
working process at any time.
Keep other staff out of the area, so you can work securely.
5.2 Cutting method
In this section, you can find instructions to make a straight cut at the desired depth.
5.2.1 Preparing your cut
Before starting the machine,
Draw a line on the floor over the cutting length.
Make sure you have filled the engine tank with fuel, and the water tank with water, or that you
have connected the blade guard to the water supply. No diesel is supplied with the machine.
The engine is shipped with oil. Check oil level before starting. Top up if required.
Make sure you have mounted the correct blade as recommended by the manufacturer
depending on the material to be worked, the working procedure (dry or wet cut) to be carried
out, and the efficiency required.
Make sure that the flanges securely hold the diamond blade.
Make sure that the blade is not touching the floor before starting the engine.
Roll the machine until the blade is over the line.
Lower the guide-a-cut so it touches the line.
5.2.2 Cutting the floor
You can now start the engine.
To make your cut,
Lower the pivoting frame until the blade slightly touches the floor.
Open water valve to control the amount of water required for the type of blade, using 15 to
25l/min for wet and 1-2l/min for dry cutting, dust control. Check for minimum water level
regularly.
Lower blade into the cut. Once the required depth of cut is reached, you can turn the handwheel
on the side of the machine to move the machine. Always cut with the machine moving forward,
as cutting backwards will damage the blade and the blade shaft. Follow the line with the pointer.
The feed speed must be adjusted depending on the material being cut, and depth of cut.
At the end of the cut, raise the blade out of the cut, switch off the engine and shut off the water.
