Rothenberger PIPECUT 200U Instrucciones De Uso página 17

Position the pipe saw on top of the pipe so that the
edge of the lower blade guard is at the cutting mark.
Fasten the pipe saw to the pipe by turning the gripper
adjustment handle until the gripper grips firmly the pipe
to be cut (Figure E/2). Hold the pipe in place and ensure
that pipe saw moves freely in the direction the pipe is
fed. For sake of safety ensure the pipe saw leads are to
the left of the pipe saw. The pipe saw is now ready for
cutting.
Piercing the pipe wall
Grip the gripper firmly with your right hand and place
your left foot on top of the pipe approximately 50cm
from the pipe saw. Turn the saw until it leans slightly
forward (Figure H). When starting the motor, first of all
release the power-switch locking lever (Fig F/1) and push
the power switch all the way down (Fig F/2).
Fig. F
Before starting to saw, wait until the blade reaches
full speed. Pierce the pipe wall by pressing pipe saw
operating handle downwards slowly and evenly until the
blade has cut through the pipe wall (at this stage the
pipe must not rotate) and the motor unit is locked in the
sawing position (Fig H/1).

Look at the UNLOCK button during the piercing
operation. When UNLOCK button is locked, i.e. the
yellow mark disappears (Fig G), pipe saw is locked in the
sawing position, and you can safely start sawing around
the pipe.

Sawing around the pipe
Start sawing by feeding the pipe saw forward and fix
the pipe with your left foot (Fig H/3). After that release
the pipe (remove your left foot from the pipe) and turn
the pipe saw backwards, whereby the pipe will also be
rotated backwards (Fig J).

Start a new feeding movement, and feed continuously
forward ca. 1/6 of the pipe's circumference. Repeat until
the pipe is cut off (Fig K).
