Transport and commissioning Transport The goods should be transported in the original packaging. During transport, the goods must be secured safely within the packaging. All applicable laws and regulations relating to securing loads shall be ob- served during transport. The machine must only be unloaded and transported with a crane. When a crane is used for transport, lifting gear with a sufficient length and lifting capacity has to be used.
WARNING! Danger from tilting machine! The machine may tilt if it is transported improperly. There is a risk of being injured. • Consider the machine's centre of gravity (1). • Only lift the machine at the designated points. Lift the machine at the identified points (2) using the crane and transport it to the installation site.

Operation What you have to observe The operator has received the Operation Manual from the owner, has read and understood it and will observe it. Before starting and/or re-starting • Ensure sufficient illumination of the working area of the ma- chine/unit.
Skiving the workpiece 5.3.1 Prerequisites Prerequisites for a correct skiving process: • A suitable outside/inside skiving tool is selected. • The outside/inside skiving tool is inserted in the drive shaft. • The outside/inside skiving tool is secured by the locking pin / star-shaped grip.
Inside skiving Select the skiving direction using the change in direction of rota- tion switch. Press and hold down the foot pedal: the skiving tool rotates. Guide the hose centrally through the guard onto the pin. The hose is skived. Remove the hose through the guard.
Adjusting the skiving knife USM 10.2 EcoLine / USM 10.2 5.6.1 Adjusting the inside skiving length and inside skiving diameter Deactivate the machine on the power switch and secure it against unintentional restart. Open the protection cover. Loosen the hexagon socket threaded pin (4) on the adjusting ring (5).
Tighten the threaded pin using the Allen wrench (3). Close the protection cover. 5.6.2 Adjusting the outside skiving length and outside skiving diameter Deactivate the machine on the power switch and secure it against unintentional restart. Open the protection cover. WARNING! Cutting risk! There is an acute risk of injuries to the hands when the skiving...
Tighten the clamping plate (2) with the hexagon socket cylinder bolts (3). Close the protection cover. Stop Complete the skiving process. Deposit the workpiece outside the machine. Deactivate the main power switch (1) and secure it against unin- tentional restart. Open the protection cover.
Emergency-stop In case of an emergency Immediately deactivate the emergency-stop switch in cases of emergency. The motor is switched off immediately. The skiving tool movement is stopped. Restart after and emergency WARNING! Risk of injuries! The emergency-stop button was probably activated due to the occurrence of a hazardous situation.
