Page 12: Starting And Stopping The Engine
4.4) Starting and stopping the engine Always start the machine at a safe distance from the refuelling area. Start the engine only when the abrasive cutting disc is mounted. Before starting, check that the abrasive cutting disc can rotate freely. ONLY FOR RDSC-14PN TYPE: The rail saw must be started only when mounted on the support arm otherwise the engine will be stopped by a cut-off device. - Page 13 Fig. f ONLY FOR RDS-14PN TYPE : the rail saw can be started Fig. f both on the earth and when mounted on the support arm, we recommend to start the rail saw on the earth for the first phase of warming up, then to switch it off and to mount it on the arm where to start it again.

CUTTING IN AUTOMATIC MODE WARNING: - Always consult your employer’s rules and procedures to cut rails in presence of electrical traction return current. - Never leave the rail saw unattended while cutting. - Make sure that everyone keeps a safe distance away from the cutting zone. - During the cutting operation move to a safe distance and always keep the auxiliary switching device close to hand if any problems occur during cutting.
- Page 22 – With the disc in contact with the rail, completely release the arm. – The rail saw will automatically perform regular alternate movements simulating the cutting action of an operator. During operation always keep a safe distance and always monitor the cutting process in order to readily intervene in case of problems.
- Page 23 If the rail saw stops at the rail head shortly after starting the cut, it means that the cutting force is too high: rotate the adjustment ring a couple of turns towards higher values in order to put more load on the contrast spring. If the rail saw stops at the intersection between the rail web/foot towards the end of the cut, it means that the cutting force is insufficient: rotate the adjustment ring towards lower values in order to unload the suspension.
