Noise data

Measurement of the noise levels was carried out in accordance with EN ISO 3744:2010.

Sound power level in dB	kwd 7.0	kw 7.0	kwz 7.0	kw-ze 7.0
Idle L_WA / Machining L_WA	102.9 / 105.9	102.9 / 105.9	107.1 / 102.6	107.1 / 102.6

Uncertainty K_wa/pA	2	2	2	2

The stipulated values are emission values and so do not necessarily represent safe work station values. Although there is a correlation between emission levels and exposure levels, it is not possible to reliably determine whether additional precautionary measures will be required or not based on this. Factors that influence the exposure level present at any given time in the work area include the nature of the working area, other noise sources, e.g. the number of machines and neighbouring work processes. The permissible working values may vary from country to country. However, the information should enable the operator to evaluate the hazards and risks.

⚠️ Transport on public highways

Attention! When driving on public roads, it is necessary to observe the German road traffic act (StVZO) paragraph 53, 53b and 54 regarding attachments. If an attachment protrudes more than 1 m to the rear beyond the tail lights of a tractor vehicle, the end must be made readily recognisable with warning signs. If visibility conditions require it, additional tail lights and reflectors must also be fitted.

If an attachment protrudes more than 40 cm beyond the limiting lights or tail lights, the front and rear must be made readily recognisable with warning signs.

If visibility conditions require it, additional limiting lights, tail lights and reflectors are also necessary.

Attachments must be made safe with lighting equipment if the tractor unit is concealed by the attachment. It is necessary to ensure that front ballast is installed when transporting a machine with an agricultural tractor, if this is required according to the load table for the tractor. The transport speed must not exceed 6 km/h.

10. Electrical connection

The electrical motor installed is connected and ready for operation. The connection complies with the applicable VDE and DIN provisions. The customer's mains power connection as well as the extension lead used must also comply with these regulations and the local regulations.

Check the electrical connection cables for damage regularly. Ensure that the connection cables are disconnected from electrical power when checking for damage.

Electrical connection cables must comply with the applicable VDE and DIN provisions. Only use connection cables with the marking "H 07 RN".

The printing of the type designation on the cable is mandatory.

Damaged electrical connection cables

The insulation on electrical connection cables is often damaged.

Causes are:

• Pressure points, where connection cables are passed through windows or doors
• Kinks where the connection cables have been improperly fastened or routed
• Places where the connection cables have been cut due to being driven over
• Insulation damage due to being ripped out of the wall socket
• Cracks due to the insulation ageing

Such damaged electrical connection cables must not be used and are life-threatening due to insulation damage!

3-phase motor 400 V / 50 Hz

Mains voltage 400V / 50Hz

Mains power connection and extension leads must be 5-core = 3 P + N + SL. - (3/N/PE).

Extension cables must have a minimum cross section of 1.5 mm^2 ( ≤ 25m ).

Extension cables must have a minimum cross section of 2.5 mm^2 (> 25m) .

The mains power connection is protected with a 16A slow-blow fuse. The RCD circuit breaker must have a 30 mA trip rating.

When connecting to the mains or in the event of the machine being moved to another location, the turning direction must be checked. It may be necessary to change the polarity.

Turn the pole changing device in the product connector.

Motor braking device

The brake brakes the drive motor of the sawing shaft within 10 s.

The electric braking is interrupted after max. 14 s. If the braking process takes longer than 10 s, the machine must no longer be operated because the brake is defective. It is essential to disconnect the machine from the power supply. Only a qualified electrician may be assigned with troubleshooting.

Operating mode / duty cycle

The electric motor is designed for operating mode S6 - 40 %.

S6 = Continuous operation with intermittent load
40% = based on 10 min. 4 min. load; 6 min. idle operation

If the engine is overloaded, it switches off automatically because a thermostat protects the motor from overloading. After a cool-down period (time varies) the motor can be switched back on again.

Electrical connection test

- Switch on the machine at the on-off switch; the sawing shaft starts up.

Attention!

Check direction of rotation

• The direction of rotation of 3-phase motors must be checked when they are connected for the first time or if they are relocated. If necessary the polarity must be changed with the phase inverter (Fig. A).
• When switching off, the sawing shaft is braked within 10 sec.

15. Maintenance and service

△ Only carry out maintenance, modification, adjustment and cleaning work when the engine is switched off and the mains plug is disconnected. When operating with a Cardan shaft, always switch off the Cardan shaft and the engine first and remove the ignition key before carrying out maintenance, modification, adjustment and cleaning work.

• Store the manual with the machine.
• Keep the machine clean.
• Wear safety goggles when cleaning.
• Attention! Danger of fire due to chips in the event the cleaning carried out is insufficient.

Before starting the maintenance or checks, clean the work area and have suitable tools at hand and in good condition.

The time intervals refer to normal conditions of use. If the machine is subject to heavy use, these times are reduced accordingly.

Clean the machine panels, covers and control levers with a soft, dry cloth or one that has been lightly dampened with a neutral cleaning agent.

Do not use solvents such as alcohol or petrol, as they can attack surfaces.

Keep oils and lubricating greases out of the reach of unauthorised personnel. Read the instructions on the containers carefully and follow them closely.

Avoid direct contact with the skin and rinse thoroughly after use.

Check the V-belt tension after the first hour of operation and every time before starting up. To do so, undo the T-screw on the motor bracket. Press the console down and retighten the tommy screw.

All ball bearings are lifetime lubricated. The circular saw blade is a wearing part. Check it every time before commissioning. Only a well-sharpened, correctly set saw blade delivers good cutting results. Occasional greasing of the saw blade is recommended.

If signs of wear appear in the swivel saw slit, the swivel parts must be replaced.

Replacing the gear oil (Fig. 2)

Attention! If the product is operated without or with too little gear oil, this can lead to transmission damage.

Change the gearbox oil every year before the start of the season when the engine is warm and switched off. Use only SAE 30W transmission fluid. The capacity is 0.45 litres.

Attention! Spilled oil can pollute the environment permanently. The liquid is highly toxic and can quickly lead to water pollution. Use a funnel and catch the drained oil in a suitable container. Wipe up spilled oil carefully immediately and dispose of the cloth according to local regulations.

1. Make sure that the machine is on a flat, paved surface.
2. Place an oil drain pan under the angular gear oil filler plug (Fig. 2) and open it.
3. Suck out the gear oil through the filler neck using an oil pump (with hose).
4. Top up with fresh gear oil.
5. Replace the oil filler plug on the angular gearbox (Fig. 2).
6. Dispose of old oil as per local regulations.

⚠️ Check all safety devices after all maintenance or cleaning work.

Servicing

Switch off the engine or Cardan shaft and engine and let the engine cool down. Pull out the mains plug or disconnect the ignition key.

Check the general condition of the machine. Check for loose screws, misalignment or jamming of moving parts, part breakages and other conditions that could impair safe operation.

Remove all foreign objects and other materials that have collected on the saw blade and on the unit. Clean the machine after every use.

Then use a high-quality, low-viscosity machine oil to lubricate all moving parts.

△ Never use a high-pressure cleaner to clean your machine. Water can penetrate sealed areas of the machine and the transmission housing and cause damage to spindles, gear wheels, bearings or the engine. The use of high-pressure cleaners shortens the service life and reduces the ease of maintenance.

Experienced craftsmen can carry out small repairs on the machine themselves.

• Check the saw blade regularly. Use only saw blades that are well sharpened, free of cracks and not deformed. Only insert tools that comply with the European standard DIN EN 847-1.
• Replace worn swivel frame bearings immediately.

• Check all safety devices after all maintenance or cleaning work.

• Check that no tools or miscellaneous parts are on or in the machine before putting it back into operation.

• Remove any sawdust accumulations at the discharge.
