It is essential that all personnel working with, or in close
proximity to, the saw have read and understood the contents
of the operator's manual before commencing operations.
This short manual does not replace the operator's manual.

MOUNTING THE PENTRUDER 3P8 WIRE SAW
1. 1 Positioning the Pentruder 3P8 wire saw
Consider the following for positioning the Pentruder 3P8 wire
saw:
a)
Should it be a direct cut or should satellite pulleys be
used?
The wire saw can often be mounted on the cut object
o
without satellite pulleys, a "direct cut". This is often
very efficient.
Direct cut
Slack side
b)
Position base plate with slack side as far from a sharp
corner as possible.
The angle from edge of concrete to slack side swivelling
pulley should be as straight as possible. This will reduce
vibration and catching.
c)
The swivelling pulleys should guide the wire. The fine
adjusting will take place when the complete wire saw is
assembled.
d)
The base plate slot is length will allow for some adjustment
of the position of the wire saw.
e)
The angle of the base plate in combination with the
swivelling column allows for a lot of adjustment of the
position of the wire saw.
Position slack side pulley
outside of concrete.
