WARNINGS:
- Always consult your employer's rules and procedures to cut rails in presence of
electrical traction return current.
- Follow the precautions described in § 9.1.
- Ensure that everyone keeps the safety distance from the cutting zone.
- Remove aggregate (min. 15 cm) from the cutting area under the rail, to avoid interference
with the cutting disc guard and to make it easier to remove the disc when the cut is fi nished.
– Fix the arm to the rail at the pre-esta-
blished point (Ref. to § 6.1) by using
the appropriate reference plate.
NOTE: Check that the plate is totally
pushed up against clamp; during the
first cut, the origins of the cutting
distances must be defined exactly
(Refer to § 5).
– Mount the rail saw onto the arm (Ref.
to § 8.4).
– Start the engine (Ref. to § 4.4).
– Operate the accelerator to maintain
maximum acceleration for at least
10 seconds before starting to cut.
– Support the rail saw by holding the upper
handle with one hand and with the other
hand pull out lever (7) locking it in the
external position to release the arm.
– Press the accelerator completely, slowly
bring the cutting disc towards the rail,
whilst respecting the precautions descri-
bed in § 9.1.
IMPORTANT:
10s
To avoid damage to the transmission, the
saw must be fully accelerated for at least 10
seconds before starting to cut.
During manual cutting, never insert the accelerator
block (22). This avoids an uncontrolled acceleration of the
machine, which could cause serious damage and injury!
