operated at right angles to the pipe so that the belt
does not fall off the rollers.
Using the additional handle, the belt can be pressed
against the pipe and at same time placed around it.
The angle of contact and the cutting output may be
changed by the contact pressure.
Keep the machine in constant motion because
otherwise recesses could be produced in the
material.
