Operation Instructions
When the pipe is cut off, push the UNLOCK button
forward until the yellow mark is visible and the
locking is released (Fig L). Now raise the motor unit
to starting position. Release the power switch. After
the saw is lifted away from the pipe ensure that the
moving blade guard has turned into safety position
(Fig. M).
Select the feeding speed as per the material and the
thickness of the wall. Too high speed can damage
the blade, overload the Exact P400 and give a poor
sawing result. Especially when using the Cut Bevel
blade, the feed rate should be fairly slow to ensure
good quality bevel finish.
The Exact P400 Battery can also be used for making
only a bevel to the end of plastic pipe. First position
the saw on top of the pipe so that the cutting blade
of the Cut Bevel blade is at the end of the pipe. (Fig.
N) Now you can work the pipe as previously
described.
Should there be problems during piercing or sawing,
abnormal sounds or vibrations due to which you
have to interrupt sawing before the pipe is cut
through, release the blade by pushing the UNLOCK
button forward until the UNLOCK button is released
and lift the motor unit up. Once the problem is
cleared, start sawing again.
Never start the motor when the motor unit is locked
in sawing position, or the teeth of the blade are in
contact with the sawn pipe.
Always clean the steering device and the guide
wheels after use. This will ensure that plastic chips
caught in the wheels do not skew the unit and cause
a lobsided cut.
Heat indicator light and feeding speed
The saw is equipped with a heat protection. The
heat raises in the motor when using the saw. It
raises faster when the blade is dull, when the
feeding speed is fast, or the pipe dimensions are
big. When the temperature has raised over certain
limit the heat indicator light (Fig A/18) starts to blink.
You should stop sawing immediately and wait until
the temperature of the motor cools down and
blinking of heat indicator light does not occur
anymore. If you keep on sawing the heat indicator
starts to light up constantly and the heat protection
cuts power automatically.
The indicator light in question turns on for a moment
every time the motor is started. This is normal and
does not require any actions.
In case of overheat: Release the power switch (Fig
L/3). Push the UNLOCK button forward until the
yellow mark is visible and the locking is released
(Fig L/1). Now raise the motor unit to the starting
position (Fig L/2).
