Terminology Used - Valex TPER180 Instrucciones De Uso

8) KEEP THE POWER SUPPLY CABLE IN A SAFE POSITION
Keep the power cable and extension cable (where ap-
plicable) away from the working area, damp, wet or oily
surfaces, or surfaces with sharp edges, heat sources,
fuel and transit areas for vehicles or pedestrians.
9) DO NOT STEP ON OR SQUASH THE POWER SUPPLY
CABLE
Never step on the power cable. Be aware of its position
at all times.
10) DO NOT USE THE MACHINE IN THE PRESENCE OF
LIQUIDS
Except for the tank, the pump and the support surface,
do not wet the machine with liquids and do not expose it
to damp environments. Do not leave it out in the open.
11) USE AN EXTENSION CABLE SUITABLE FOR THE MA-
CHINE
Only use an extension cable that is suitable for the power
of the machine you are using, with an earth cable, and
sized according to its length; consult your local electri-
cian.
12) DISCONNECT THE MACHINE BY PULLING THE PLUG
ONLY
To remove the plug from the socket, pull on the plug only
and not on the power cable!
13) AVOID TOUCHING SURFACES THAT ARE EARTHED
Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces such as refri-
gerators, radiators, pipes and metallic fixtures, etc. Use
a platform to electrically insulate the user from the floor.

TERMINOLOGY USED

MACHINE
Assembly of all electrical and mechanical units.
RADIAL TILE CUTTER
Machine destined for cutting tiles; the cutting head is moved
manually along a guide in relation to the piece which is still.
CUTTING HEAD
Assembly made up of the motor, cutting blade, handle, switch
and mobile/fixed guards.
BLADE TOOL
Circular tool designed to remove material from the piece.
SWITCH
Electrical component whose action is used for switching the
machine on and off.
PUMP
Electrical component which has the job of sucking water from
the tank and pumping it towards the blade through a pipe.
PORTABLE RESIDUAL CURRENT DEVICE (PRCD)
Additional electrical safety component that interrupts the elec-
trical power supply should there be dispersion towards earth;
it does not replace the electrical safety components located
on the power supply line, which are compulsory according to
the laws and directives in force.
OPERATOR - USER
The person responsible for installing, operating, adjusting,
maintaining and cleaning the machine.
TRANSPORT AND LIFTING (FIG. A)
WARNING! The manufacturer is not liable for any direct and/or
indirect damage caused by incorrect transport or lifting.
WARNING! Before carrying out the following operations, make
sure that the machine's plug is disconnected from the mains.
The machine transport and lifting operations must be carried
out paying attention in order to prevent accidents and damage;
perform them with the help of another person as the machine
is heavy. Use lifting and transport devices that are suitable for
the weight and dimensions.
1) Lock the cutting head using the stopping screw (pos.14).
2) Lift the machine from the tank and place it on the ground taking
care to detach the pump first (pos.20) from the tank support.
3) Completely eliminate the water from the tank.
4) Transport the two parts separately.
Do not transport the machine resting on the tank, risk of tipping!
Lift the machine with extreme care and move it slowly, without
jerks or sudden movements. Do not attempt to move the machi-
ne by pulling on the power cable or other machine parts.
STARTING UP (FIG. A)
WARNING! The manufacturer is not liable for any direct
and/or indirect damage caused by incorrect installation or
connections.
WARNING! Before carrying out the following operations, make
sure that the machine's plug is disconnected from the mains.
The machine is supplied with some disassembled components
and before using it, it must be cleaned and installed.
When choosing where to put the machine, the following should
be considered:
- that the planned position is not damp and is protected from
the elements.
- that the area where it will be placed is completely flat, on a
non-slip floor and with appropriate load capacity.
- that there should be a large operational area around the
machine free from obstacles.
- that on the rear side, there is no electrical apparatus or
things that could get damaged due to water spray produced
by the machine.
- that the room should be attended and closed in order to
prevent free access.
- that there is good lighting.
- that it needs to be positioned close to the general differential switch.
- that the power supply system is earthed and conforms to
the standards.
- that the room temperature should be between 10° and 35° C.
- that the work environment is not in an explosive atmosphere.
1) Take out the machine and components and visually check
that they are perfectly intact; then proceed to thoroughly
clean them in order to remove any protective oils used for
transport.
2) Proceed to assemble the components as illustrated in the
figure. If in any doubt, please contact your retailer. Some
components must be assembled/used only if they are
necessary for the process that you plan to carry out.
3) Assemble the 4 legs (pos.16) on the frame (pos.17) using
the screws with washers and the shaped discs.
4) Insert the tank (pos.18) in the frame and fix it using the 2
brackets (pos.19).
5) Screw the 2 flywheels (pos.15) in order to block the move-
ment of the beam and the cutting head. Unscrew the screws
used for transport and screw the 2 flywheels.
6) Fix the pump (pos.20) onto the tank as illustrated in the figure
(where fitted using the support pos.21); adjust the flow rate
