Area of application

This device is designed for cutting mineral wool, glass wool, rigid resol foam and hybrid insulating boards. XPS perimeter

foam boards are also suitable for cutting. The device is not suitable for EPS polystyrene insulating boards - we recommend

the STORCH ProCut top, multi or basic foam board cutter with hot wire here.

Operation

The device should only be used by an instructed person who is familiar with its operation. Use of appropriate personal

protective equipment, such as close-fitting work clothing, dust masks, safety glasses and protective gloves is recommended.

(Also refer to the section entitled "Safety precautions").

Cleaning and maintenance

Before starting to use the device all of the nuts and bolts are to be checked and re-tightened if necessary. The swivel

arm of the cutting mechanism is to be checked to ensure it is moving freely. The lock for the upper, open position of the

cutting bow can be re-adjusted by means of a self-locking screw. If the device is heavily soiled, it must be cleaned prior

to use. Check the sharpness of the cutting blades on a daily basis and replace if worn.

Before starting to cut the insulating boards, please observe the safety precautions provided by the respective manufac-

turer. Use appropriate personal protective equipment (e.g. close-fitting work clothing, dust masks, safety glasses and

protective gloves are recommended). Only use dry utensils when cleaning; do not use any cleaning agents that contain

solvents.

Caution:

The cutting components used, especially the blade of the insulation knife, are particularly sharp. Handle

such components safely and with great care. Only use special cutting components that are designed for

the device, a 48 cm insulation knife (art. no. 43 62 49) and / or a 48 cm mineral handsaw (art. no. 43 01

55); doing this will ensure a perfect cutting result and prevent unnecessary damage to the device.

The device should only be used if it can be operated safely. When installing the device on scaffolding additional measures

must be implemented to prevent it from falling. When the device has been installed at the designated location make sure

that it is sturdy and stable. If the device is left unattended, it should be protected against external influence and use.

The operator of the device is responsible for making sure that any sources of danger and potential tripping hazards in the

vicinity of the device are eliminated (e.g. long straps, items of packaging, etc.).

The device should only be assembled, commissioned, operated, maintained and cleaned by those persons who are au-

thorised, qualified and trained to do so.

Spare parts, consumables

All of the device components are available from STORCH and its distribution partners.
