eXact Pipecut V1000 Mode D'emploi page 13

Operation
The saw can also be steered manually if the sight
does not coincide with the starting point of cut. Follow
the sight of the Pipe Cut with your gaze until you see
the starting point of the cut, turn the saw at a gentle
angle towards the initial cut until the duct is cut off
(Fig. K) (Tip: If the duct is not cut through clean the
resulting batten can be snipped off with a pair of plate
shears.)
Because the duct has a spiral seam, the rotation of
it creates an illusion of the pipe moving in relation to
the pipe saw. Anyway, if the pipe saw is adjusted
correctly to go straigt, the wheels will stear the cut
straight.
When the duct 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. Ensure finally
that the moving lower bladeguard is lowered into
safety position (Fig. M).
Select the feeding speed as per the material and the
thickness of the pipe wall. Too high speed can damage
the blade, overload the pipe saw and give a poor
sawing result. Reduce the feeding speed as you reach
the seam.
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 teeth of the blade contact the
duct to be sawn.
Overload protection and spin-speed regulator
Exact PipeCut V1000 is equipped with overload
protection. When the blade is dull or the cutting speed
is too high, the overload protection cuts power
automatically. In case of overload: Release the power
switch. Push the UNLOCK button forward until the
yellow mark is visible and the locking is released
(Fig. L). Now raise the motor unit to the starting
position . Restore the power by pushing the overload
protection switch (Fig A/14).
Straightness of the cut and the adjustment feature
Sometimes the cut does not meet the starting point
(Fig N).The cut is affected by many factors, e.g. the
size of the duct, the material, the wall thickness, the
quality of the duct's surface, the roundness, welded
seams, blade condition, feed rate, the operator's
experience. The cutting result may vary and especially
so with larger ducts where it can be hard to reach the
starting point.
