Pay attention that all hoses:
- Have a cross section being large enough,
- do not have any restrictions or buckles,
- are designed for a minimum operating pressure of 6 bar,
- are replaced regularly at preventative maintenance,
- have an oil resistant inner surface and an abrasion-resistant outer surface,
- are proved and specified to be non-conductive when being used next to electric
conductors.
Always use hoses, lubricating oil and antifreeze lubricants, which meet the local safety
requirements for use in areas exposed to explosion hazards.
Connecting the air supply to the pneumatic band saw
Remove the locking cap from the air connection 3 (see fig. 2). Connect the pneumatic hose
(not contained in the scope of delivery).
Indication regarding the saw blade
Selection of saw blade: In general, at least two teeth of the saw blade have to be engaged in
the material.
This means, the thinner or harder the material is, the finer the graduation of the saw blade.
In any case of doubt ask for the ideal saw blade.
CAUTION – risk of injury! Do not touch the saw blade with the bare hand.
Planning the cut
- Know the material to be cut.
- If necessary, slow down rotational speed of the saw blade by reducing the air pressure.
- Ensure that the material to be cut (see fig. 5) is properly fastened.
