Cooling System - Pilous ARG 220 D Instruction Manual

5.7. Cooling System

The pump and the coolant tank mounted in the base are the basic elements of the cooling system. The coolant tank can be
dismantled separately from the pump. The coolant pump carries the coolant via hoses, cocks and guide heads to the saw blade. In
addition to the main cooling via the guide heads, there is an auxiliary cooling. We recommend to install it after the fixed guide head.
The coolant quantity is regulated by cocks on the guide heads. The coolant cools and lubricates the saw blade and flushes the metal
chips. The pump switches on and off simultaneously when the saw blade drive is started or shut down. Installed in the coolant tank is
a settling tank, which has to be cleaned during routine checks depending on the material cut.
The overflow opening bored in the coolant tank provides for the supply of the correct quantity of coolant in order that
the pump overflow is prevented (the pump could burn). If too much coolant is poured in, the coolant will flow out
below the band saw.
When coolants are handled, the exposure to dangerous substances cannot be excluded. Observe in your own
interest the instructions and recommendations of the producer or your company referring to safe coolant handling.
