3.2.4 Storage of the machine:
For the min dangers all equipment must be operated as follows:
※ Do not touch electrophorus parts
※ Forbid hauling off the cable to disconnect
※ Do not put heavy or sharp object on the cables, and control the temperature of cable within limiting temperature (70℃)
※ Do not work in the wet environment. Check if the groove and shoes is dry.
※ Do not splash the machine
3.2.5 Check insulation condition of machine periodically
※ Check the insulation of cables specially the points extruded
※ Do not operate the machine under extreme condition.
※ Check if the ground fault interrupter works well at least per month.
※ Check the earthing of the machine by qualified personnel
3.2.6 Clean the machine carefully
※Do not use materials damaging the insulation easily (like gas, abrasive, and other solvents)
※The power should be disconnected when finishing job.
If only following above mentioned, the precaution can work well.
3.2.7 EMERGENCY STOP
Any unexpected status occurs, please press “EMERGENCY STOP “immediately to stop the machine. After solving problems turn EMERGENCY STOP clockwise to start machine again.
3.2.8 Tightness of parts: Check if the pipes are fixed correctly and tightly. Make sure that it can not slide down to injury operator
3.2.9 Personnel safety while working
Remove jewelry and rings, and does not wear loose-fitting clothing avoid wearing shoe lace, long mustache or long hair that may be hooked into the machine.
3.2.10 Keep the site clean and tidy
Crowd, dirty and mussy site is not favourable to working, so it is important to keep the site clean and tidy.
3.2.11 Untrained person should never be allowed to operate the machine anytime.
3.3 Potential Dangers
3.3.1 Band saw
This machine is only operated by professional person or trained personnel, otherwise unwanted accident maybe caused.
3.3.2 Saw Blade
Never touch the running saw blade, or injury may cause
3.3.3 Cutting
Before cutting, clean the sand outside of the pipes or other draff crowed in the pipes when transporting. This can avoid unwanted damage of the saw blade or other accidents

Installation
6.1 Lifting and installation
6.1.1 If a forklift is used while installation, insert the fork carefully from the bottom of the machine to avoid damaging the oil hose or circuit.
6.1.2 When placing the machine, the machine should be kept stable and level by adjusting the level adjustor
6.1.3 This standard machine can cut angle 0~67.5°, if an angle within 45° is required, the 67.5° seat should be removed before working
Operation
7.1 Starting
7.1.1 Power the machine, and the power indicator must be on (if not on, the connection is wrong).
7.2 Testing of the saw box moving up and down by turning the feed speed adjustor on the right of operation panel.
7.3 Press the “jog clockwise” and “jog anticlockwise button “to check the running direction of the saw blade. If it rotates in the wrong direction, exchange connection between any two live wires linked to the power supply.
7.4 Cutting operation
7.4.1 Loosen the angle locking screw, push the saw blade box by hands to required angle (as per the required angle), and fasten the angle locking screw.
7.4.2 Raise saw blade box to a height (determined by the diameter of pipe to be cut) to ensure the saw tooth is above the pipes.
7.4.3 Put the cutting tubing on the work table, adjust the cutting position, and fix the pipe with nylon belt by locking device.
7.4.4 Start the saw blade, when the saw blade achieves specified speed (Running indicator will shine), turn the feed speed adjustor to fall the saw box slowly. The speed of falling should be regulated according to the pipe diameter and thickness.
7.4.5 When the cutting is going to be finished, please hold the pipe cut down to avoid blocking the saw blade.
7.4.6 Press emergency button if any abnormity occurs during cutting. After solving problems turn EMERGENCY STOP clockwise to start machine again..
7.4.7 Saw blade will stop automatically when it reaches lower limiting position
7.4. 8 When finishing the cutting Remove the cut pipe and recut.
7.4. 9 This standard machine can cut angle 0~67.5°, if an angle within 45° is required, the 67.5° seat should be removed before working on the pipes, shown as follows:
Caution:
1) Power the machine again in 30 minutes after cutting off the power to protect the converter.
2) The whole machine must be earthed to ensure safety
3) The check and maintenance of the electrical components must be done by professional person
