Before operating the tool
• Ensure that the motor unit is in the upright position.
The yellow mark of the UNLOCK button is visible.
• Check that the blade is correctly fitted, in good
condition and suitable for the material to be cut.
• Ensure the pipe saw guide wheels rotate.
• Ensure the support wheels rotate.
• Check the operation of the lower blade guard.
• Ensure the pipe is empty.
• It plastic pipes have been cut with the pipe saw
(resulting in long, statically charger slivers), open
the blade guard cover, and clean carefully the lower
blade guard and the entire pipe saw.
Connection to the mains power supply
Ensure that the mains voltage is the same as indicated on
the rating plate (Figure A/14). Connect the pipe saw to
the power outlet only after having checked this.
Precise setting of the cutting point
When you mark the cutting point on the pipe to be cut,
deduct 20 mm from the required dimension (Easy-to-
remember rule: The cutting mark location requires a
measurement of - 20 mm.)(Figure C)
Setting the pipe on supports
Use the system supports when cutting pipes. This will
ensure safe working and optimum result. Work on flat
underground. Place the pipe on two supports so that the
cutting point is between the supports. Place two more
support under both ends of the pipe.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Check that all support wheel contact the pipe (adjust if
required e.g. with pieces of lumber) (figure B).
When cutting short pipes (25cm or less) place the
supports so that the cutting point is outside supports
(figure D). Support the pipe with your left leg, if required.
Proper arrangements will prevent the blade from jamming
as the pipe is cut through.

Attaching the pipe saw to the pipe
Open the pipe saw's gripper unit enough to suit the
diameter of the pipe by rotating the adjustment handle
located at the rear of the saw (Fig. E/1).
