3 Assembly and commissioning

The machine is delivered fully equipped (although without diamond blade) and is ready for operation
after assembly of the blade and the handles, and connection to the appropriate power supply.

3.1 Tool assembly

Only NORTON blades with a maximum diameter of 350 mm can be used with the CST.
All tools used must be selected with regard to their maximum permitted cutting speed for the
machine's maximum permitted rotation speed.
Before mounting a new blade into the machine, switch off the machine and isolate it from the main
source of electricity.
To mount a new blade, follow these steps:
•
Open the outside cover of blade guard by loosening the two knobs on the side of the guard.
•
Loosen the hexagonal nut (Caution: left-threaded) on the blade shaft, which holds the
removable outer flange.
•
Remove the outer flange.
•
Clean the flanges and blade shaft and inspect for wear.
•
Mount the blade on arbor ensuring that direction of rotation is correct. Wrong direction of rotation
blunts the blade quickly.
•
Replace outer blade flange.
•
Tighten hexagonal nut with spanner supplied for this purpose.
•
Shut retractable blade guard cover and tighten the two knobs.
The blade bore must correspond exactly to the diameter of the blade shaft. Cracked or damaged
bore is dangerous for the operator and for the machine.

3.2 Handle assembly

To prevent the handles to be damaged during transportation, they are disassembled from the
machine. You can reassemble them by using the M10x25 screws supplied with the machine.

3.3 Electrical connections

Check that,
•
the voltage/phase supply corresponds to the information indicated on the motor plate.
•
Available power supply must have ground connection in conformity with safety regulations.
•
The connecting cables should have at least a 2.5mm

3.4 Starting the machine

230V or 115V Motor
Open the switch cover and press the green button to start the machine. To stop either use the red
button or press directly on the switch front cover.
400V Motor
The direction of rotation is indicated on the blade guard. If the direction of rotation does not
correspond to the direction shown by the arrow, then reverse the motor polarity by turning the phase
inverter inside the male plug with a screwdriver.
