started. Use clear, clean water for this.
ATTENTION!
The water pump may not run without water,
otherwise it can be damaged.
6. OPERATION
6.1 Intended working position of the operator
The operator takes position in front of the machine near the
switch and the chain driven handwheel to be able to slide
the cutter head with the handwheel and to press the red
stop button at any time.
6.2 Start-up preparation
To safely use the machine as intended, the following pre-
conditions must be met:
- The machine stands firmly.
- The water tank is filled with clean, clear water.
- The machine has been checked for damage, loose screw
connections and integrity.
- The water supply is functional.
- Rotation direction arrows on the cutting wheel and guard
match.
- An appropriate cutting wheel must be installed, which
meets optimum conditions.
- Lock the legs when the machine is on.
6.3 Start-up
The machine is switched on by the main switch. For this
purpose, press the green button to start
After the start, check the following:
The cooling water must be pumped to the cutting wheel
by the water pump in the sufficient quantities and drain off
on both sides. If this is not the case, stop the machine im-
mediately! The motor is equipped with thermal insulation
activated when the temperature rises too high.
Wait approx. 30 minutes before restarting the machine until
the motor cools down
