Getting started
Preparations before commencing work.
Certain preparations must be done before starting work.
Cleaning:
The machine should be carefully cleaned and all functions checked and
found normal before use of the machine.
Tools:
Use only those tools that are intended to be used to
operate the machine: Ratchet ½”, socket 19 mm (3/4”),
Allen-socket 8 mm (5/16”), T-shape 8 mm (5/16”) Allen
key .
Quick disconnects:
Check the HF-motor quick disconnect coupling for correct function and
cleanliness. Grease screw threads one per week.
Guide rollers:
Check that the guide rollers on the saw head can move freely without too
much friction. A certain amount of friction is always present as the
bearings are double sealed with both rubber and steel scraper seals.
Replace bearings and shields when worn or if rollers don’t run freely.
Remote Control unit:
Check the remote control unit for correct function and that the Cannon
connector is clean and undamaged.
Water feed:
Check that the machine can be supplied with clean cold water, minimum
4 L / minute (1 GPM).
Water seal on
saw head:
In the saw arm, there is a rotating shaft with seals used to feed the water
into the centre of the spindle and further to both sides of the blade flange.
Two seals seal off the water which is fed through the spindle, and further
on through the blade flange to the blade. Just above the coupling clamp
screw there is a small water drain hole.
Important!
If water comes out of the
Water Drain Hole
, (see the maintenance
section for reference) while the water is switched on, this is an indication
that the seals must be replaced. The seals should be checked every day
and the oil in the arm should be checked once a week. If the seals are not
replaced in time, water may enter the saw arm transmission and gearbox,
which may cause the transmission to seize or cause irreparable
damages.
Please see the Maintenance section for instructions on how to replace the
seals.
Power cords:
Check that all cords and connectors are undamaged and in faultless
condition.
