(especially squeezing hazards at jib motion) - having started the cutter the operator is not allowed to leave his cab of a building machine and he should be permanently watching the cutting operation - the operator should avoid any activity which could bring hazards for himself and other persons - while handling the cutter, especially after its start, avoid its contact with the building machine.
Some parts of the machine can be extremely hot while in operation. To avoid any burn risks do not touch these parts when the engine is still running or when having just stopped the engine. Do not touch live wires while the machine is still in use. Do not let the engine running in high speed unreasonably.

possible thanks to technical parameters of a building machine. In this case the supporting frame may remain fixed on the pallet. The cutter must be transported always being fixed in the supporting frame. After loading fix the supporting frame properly on the loading surface. For fixing use lash eyes for such purpose welded on the frame.
Before Operation Before the first putting into operation check up the machine for contingent damages and completeness after transport and storage. Check wrapping for contingent oily spots. In such case check oil charges. Check the engine oil level with a dipstick and refill if necessary. The oil level must be between both marks (MIN and MAX).
Coupling/uncoupling The cutter should be coupled to a building machine with min. carrying capacity of 300 kg in the whole range of its hydraulic jib. The cutter should be equipped with a bolted suspension joint. Its bolts must be tightened properly.
Checks before Start Before putting into operation check up the machine for completeness. Check up all bolted joints, especially on the cutting head. Check up all cutting blades for completeness. If one of them is damaged change it immediately. It is not allowed to operate the cutter with damaged guards or cutting head. Dipstick Air filter Fuel tank...

Do not lean the cutter against the ground or against any other object. Check the engine oil level with a dipstick and refill if necessary. The oil level must be between both marks (MIN and MAX). Check tightening of bolted joints, especially rotating parts and completeness of other parts.
Putting into Operation Start the cuter only after its proper coupling to the hydraulic jib, the cutting head should not be in contact with any object and there are no persons or animals within reach. Connect the remote control. Install the remote control leads properly on the hydraulic jib so that the wires are protected against any damage.
push the STOP button Be aware, the cutting head runs out, keep away until it stops. Emergency Situations The red STOP button for emergency cases is located on the remote control box. If any such situation occurs, push the button immediately. Having pushed this button the cutting head runs out.
Set the building machine in a stabile position within reach of the given stump. Be aware of rejected objects when cutting and avoid any hazards for other persons, animals and property. It is also not allowed to use the cutter if the operator of a building machine has no view to the cutting blades.
While working persons operating this machine are obliged to use protective aids active against noise in level of N 90 dB. Technical Description The suspension stump cutter is built in the split bolted chassis consisting of its carrying frame used for coupling to a hydraulic jib. Holes for a suspension fixing device are on a plate on the upper part of the frame.

Maintenance Any servicing of the cutter can be carried out by authorised persons only. Check up the machine for completeness and its general condition. Check up the V-belts for tightness and wear. Keep regular intervals for lubrication of cutting head bearings. Tension bolts of belt gearing Pay special attention to routine maintenance of the battery.

Service life of the battery installed in the machine is rather limited. It is usually 3-4 years and after this period the battery should be replaced by a new one. Oil change The first oil change after 100 working hours and next changes every 100 hrs. Change the oil always when the engine is turned off and still warm.
Remove the used blades and fit new ones Tighten up the bolts Use torque wrench - torque value of 105 Nm Use always original spare parts and LASKI bolts (10) only At this change proceed carefully and avoid any accident Secure the machine against possible rollover...
