If the machine is overloaded the belt blocks briefly. Im-
mediately remove all loads on the machine and keep it
running in the unloaded state for a short time.
Use a feed regulator to set and secure the pipe diameter.
Select a suitable belt speed.
Make sure when working that the machine is held at an
angle to the pipe so that the belt cannot slip off. The cen-
tre position can be checked at the yoke roller.
The handle lets you feel when the belt is pressed properly
against and around the pipe.
When the contact pressure is too low the belt may
slip on the drive roller!

To work effectively and surely keep the
machine and the ventilation slots clean at
all times.
After approx. 150 operating hours check carbon brushes
and replace if necessary. Clean motor housing and re-
plenish grease filling in gearbox housing.
To maintain the protective insulation the machine must be
subjected to a technical safety inspection. This work must
be done exclusively by a specialized electrical workshop.
When working on metal under extreme working conditions
conductive dust deposits can occur inside the machine,
thereby impairing the protective insulation of the tool. In
such cases the use of a stationary vacuuming system,
frequent blowing out of the ventilation slots and protection
by a fault current protection switch are advised.
