Intended use
The device, in conjunction with an appropriate cutting blade band, is suitable for cutting and simultaneously sealing the
edges of cord, ropes, cables, belts and braided sleeves made of fully synthetic fibres such as polyamides, polyacrylonitrile,
polyester, polyethylene etc.
This assumes, however, that the material consists of fully synthetic fibres, w i t h o u t any non-fusible threads in the weft.
The cutting blade is directly electrically heated to approx. 600°C in 6 to 8 seconds by a safety transformer. Any
thermoplastic material that comes into contact with this cutting blade melts. In the fibre arrangement, the individual warp
and weft threads if close enough have a tendency to flow into each other, thereby forming an uninterrupted, sealed edge.
The edges sealed in this way do not fray, prevent tears and in many cases mean that there is no need for a hem.
Operation under adverse ambient conditions is not permitted.
Adverse ambient conditions are:
Wet conditions or excess humidity;
Dust and flammable gases, vapours or solvents;
Strong vibrations.
Safety information
For safety reasons, the unauthorised modification and/or alteration of the heat cutting machine is not permitted.
The voltage must be supplied using a regular mains socket on the public mains. Attention must be paid to the supply
voltage specified on the type plate.
Ensure that the heat cutting machine is correctly commissioned, paying attention to the Operating Instructions.
The commissioning must be performed by qualified staff in order to ensure the safe operation of this product.
Make sure that the power cord does not come into contact with heat, oil or sharp edges during operation of the machine.
Damaged power cords can cause fires, short circuiting and electric shocks.
Do not expose the heat cutting machine to high temperatures, strong vibrations or moisture.
Machines powered by mains voltage do not belong in the hands of children.
Please exercise special caution when children are present. In commercial establishments, the accident prevention
regulations of the health and safety executive for electrical installations and equipment must be observed.
Damage caused by a failure to observe these Operating Instructions invalidates the warranty!
We will not assume any liability for consequential damage!
We will not assume any liability for damage to property or for personal injury caused by incorrect
use or failure to observe the safety instructions. All warranty claims will become invalid in these
cases.

Functional description
The machine is suitable for cutting and simultaneously sealing the edges of cord, ropes, cables, belts and braided sleeves
made of fully synthetic fibres such as polyamides, polyacrylonitrile, polyester, polyethylene etc.
The cutting blade is directly electrically heated to approx. 600°C in 6 to 8 seconds by a safety transformer. Any
thermoplastic material that comes into contact with this blade band melts.
Commissioning
Check whether the available mains voltage conforms to the voltage specified on the type plate.
The cutting blade may only be inserted when the machine is switched off.
The toggle for the on/off switch is set to -0- .
This means: the signalling lamp on the on/off switch is not lit up.
Secure the blade band in the clamp pieces.
When working in rooms, t
he va
pours that arise on the
blade
band
during cutting
must
be removed
directly using an extractor fan. Or only work in well-ventilated rooms.
PVC and PVC-coated materials may not be processed due to the harmful vapours arising during
cutting.
Pay attention to the risk of burns when using the machine!
The blade bands can reach temperatures of approx. 600° Celsius. Do not touch the cutting blade
bands once you have switched the machine on.
Danger! Danger to life due to electric shock!
A fatal electrical shock can result if water gets into the housing.
Keep the machine away from water.
If water does get in, pull the plug out immediately and do not continue to use the machine.

Caution!
To guarantee perfect electrical continuity, it is important to ensure the blade band is screwed tight when
inserted. Poor connections or loose screw connections result in unnecessary heating of terminals, the
blade band output is reduced, and the heating of one or both terminals may damage the clamp pieces.
After activating the on/off switch, the machine is ready for use.
This means: The signalling lamp on the on/off switch is lit up.
The blade band should heat up.
Operation
Never operate your heat cutting machine when it has just been moved from a cold room into a warm room. The
condensation that occurs may under unfavourable circumstances damage your heat cutting machine.
Leave your heating cutting machine turned off and allow it to reach room temperature.
Maintenance
Regularly inspect the technical safety of your heat cutting machine, e.g. for damage to the power cord or the housing.
If it is to be assumed that safe operation is no longer possible, the machine must be taken out of use and secured to prevent
inadvertent use. Pull the plug out of the socket!
It may be assumed that safe operation is no longer possible in the following circumstances:
If the machine shows signs of damage;
If the machine no longer works;
After prolonged storage in unfavourable conditions; or
After rough handling during transport.
To clean the machine, it is sufficient to wipe any dust or other dirt off using a dry cloth and/or a soft brush.
Eliminating faults
With this heat cutting machine, you have bought a state of the art product that is safe to operate.
Problems or faults may nevertheless arise.
Therefore we would like to describe here how you can eliminate possible faults:
It is essential to observe the
safety instructions!
Repairs may only be conducted by the manufacturer or its customer service.
Warning!
The machine must be disconnected from the power supply during maintenance and when replacing
parts. This is done by pulling out the plug.
The operator must be able to check that the plug is still disconnected from each point of access.
