English
Work along the cutting line. When
N
making corrections, do not tilt the
abrasive wheel, but always set the
abrasive wheel against the
workpiece anew – the cutting depth
for each operation should not
exceed 5 to 6 cm. Cut thicker
material in multiple operations
Cutting plates
Secure the plate (e. g. on a non-slip
N
surface, sandbed)
Grind a guide groove (A) along the
N
line marked
12
Make the cut (B) deeper
N
Leave a "hinge" (C)
N
First sever the plate at the cut ends
N
so that no material breaks away
Break plate
N
Make curves in multiple operations
N
– make certain that the abrasive
wheel does not tilt
Cutting pipes, round and hollow bodies
Secure pipes, round and hollow
N
bodies against vibrations, slipping
and rolling away
Note direction of fall and weight of
N
the severed part
Determine and mark the cutting line,
N
avoid reinforcement, especially in
the direction of the severing cut
Determine sequence of severing
N
cuts
Grind a guide groove along the line
N
marked
Make cut deeper along the guide
N
groove – observe the recommended
cutting depth for each operation –
for small corrections of direction, do
not tilt the abrasive wheel, but
always position it anew instead – if
necessary, leave small ridges that
hold the part that is to be separated
in position. Break these ridges after
the last planned cut
Cutting concrete pipe
A
The procedure is dependent on the
outer diameter of the pipe and the
maximum possible cutting depth of the
abrasive wheel (A).
Secure pipe against vibrations,
N
slipping and rolling away
Note weight, tension and direction
N
of fall of the part to be severed
