180BA028 AM 002BA557 AM 002BA528 AM N Cut a shallow guiding groove (A) along the marked line. N Cut deeper into the parting cut (B). N Leave a section (C) of uncut material. N Cut through the slab at the ends so the material does not chip. N Break the slab manually using a hammer or other appropriate tool. Always continue to wear appropriate eye protection when finishing any cut by breaking it manually. N Curves must be cut in several straight passes, taking care to ensure that the cutting wheel does not become wedged. Do not attempt to correct the position or direction of a cut by tilting or twisting the machine or cutting wheel. If corrections are necessary, always lift the machine and reposition the cutting wheel, taking care to ensure that it is not wedged, tilted, twisted or side loaded. Cutting Pipes or Other Round, Hollow Bodies A The procedure is dependent on the outer diameter of the object being cut, the maximum possible cutting depth of the abrasive cutting wheel (A), and whether the pipe or other body can be rolled during the cutting process. The maximum cutting depth for abrasive English cutting wheels with a 14" diameter is 4.9 in. (125 mm). For cutting wheels with a 12" diameter, it is 3.9 in. (100 mm). N Secure and support pipes and other round, hollow bodies against sagging, slipping, dropping, moving, rolling or vibrating. N Determine the sequence of the cuts. N Determine the weight, tension and the likely direction of fall of the part to be severed. N Determine and mark the cutting line; avoid rebar and other metal reinforcement to the extent possible, especially in the direction of the severing cut. N Determine and mark the direction of the cut. N Cut a shallow guide groove along the line marked. N Make cuts progressively deeper along the guide groove. Observe the recommended cutting depth for each pass. If corrections are necessary, always lift the machine and reposition the cutting wheel, taking care to ensure that it is not wedged, tilted, twisted or side loaded. Attempting to change the position or direction of a cut while the wheel is in the cut can bind the TS 410, TS 420 23
