General Advise Before Using the Machine
This machine is designed to cut metal construction materi
als of different shapes and
profiles. The materials may be required for fabrication workshops, machinist shops, and
general construction work.
Limit the machines use to a single operator.
To obtain good running
-
in of the machine it is advisable to start
using it at intervals of
about half an hour. This operation should be repeated two or three times, after which the
machine may be used continuously.
Always check that the workpiece is securely clamped and that long pieces are suitably
supported.

7.4
Dismantling
General rules
Before disposing of the machine, the machine should be broken down and separated into
the 3 categories as follows:
Cast iron or ferrous materials
: These materials should be of single composition, without
combination or attachment to other types of materials. This is a recyclable material. The
materials may be sent to metal scrap and recycling centers.
Electrical components: This includes cables
and electronic parts (magnetic cards, etc.).
These materials may be considered as urban waste. Give the materials to your local
public waste disposal service.
Old mineral, synthetic and/or mixed oils: Blend oils and greases are special refuse.
Have t
hese collected by a service specializing in oil disposal.
Note: Standards and legislation for waste disposal is in a state continuous change and
evolution. The user must be informed of current regulation for waste disposal of machine

The goal is to produce an excellent quality cut and efficiency during multiple identical cuts.
The user must consider the quality of material in respect to hardness, shape, and thickness
to determine the proper descent rate, blade/disk speed, and saw blade/disk type. A
harmonious combination of materi
al, rate, speed, and type are required to achieve a quality
cut. So great care and thought should be made into planning for a single operational cycle
then efficiency can be achieved for multiple identical operations. With good knowledge of
machine specification and careful consideration and common sense, the user can attain the
goal and overcome any problem that may appear from time to time.
11.1
Disk Structure
The most commonly used disks are made of extra high speed steel (HHS/Mo5+Co5) with a
treated tooth
, which differentiates them from the former on account of the high value of
structural resistance, greater resistance to seizing, absence of stress in the mass and a
better holding of lubricating coolant during work.
11.2
Choosing the Saw Blade
Choose a tooth
pitch that is suitable for the workpiece. Please refer to Tooth pitch .
Thin walled or variable section work
pieces such as profiles, pipes, and plates require
closed toothing, so that at least 3~6 teeth are in contact with the material while cutting.
La
rge solid or transverse sections require widely spaced toothing to allow for greater
volume of the shavings and better tooth penetration.
Soft materials or plastics such as light alloys, mild bronze, Teflon, wood, etc., require
widely spaced toothing to av
oid clogging.

11.3
Type of Disks
The disks differ essentially in their constructive characteristics, such as:
Tooth shape
Tooth cutting angle
Tooth shape
The profile of the toothing depends on the size, shape and thickness of the section to be cut,
either straight or at a
n angle.
It may also vary according to the pitch, but not so distinctly as to make this an element for
classification.
Fine toothing is to be chosen for cutting small sections with a profiled shape and tubular
sections with thin walls (2
-
5mm depending on t
he material).
Large toothing is suitable for cutting medium and large solid sections or fairly thick profiled or
tubular sections (over 5mm).

11.5
Cutting and Advance Speed
The cutting speed (m/min) and the advance speed (cm2/min= area traveled by the disk teeth
when removing shavings) are limited by the development of heat close to the tips of the
teeth.
The cutting speed is subordinate to the resistance of the material (R= N/mm2), to its
hardness (HRC) and to the dimensions of the widest section.
Page 17
Instruction Manual for CS-315D (S828)
03/12/2014

To high an advance speed (=disk descent) tends to cause the disk to deviate from the ideal
cutting path, producing non
-
rectilinear cuts on both the vertical and the horizontal plane.
11.6
Running in the Disk
When cutting for the first time, it is good practice to run in the tool making a series of cuts at
a low advance speed (=30~35 cm2/min on material of average dimensions with respect to
the cutting capacity and solid section of normal steel with R= 410
-
510 N/mm2), generously
spraying the cutting area with lubricating coolant.
