Hydroscand was established 1969 in Stockholm, Sweden, by Björn Holmström.
The focus was, and still is, uid connectors, hoses and ttings.
About 30 years ago, Hydroscand started developing and manufacturing machines for its own
purpose. High quality and reliable performance in a demanding environment was the primary focus.
Downtime and unnecessary service is always more expensive than the small extra cost of a quality
product. That was the philosophy and still is for what became Hydroscand Machine AB in Säter, 20
years ago.
Today Hydroscand Group has a turnover of 190 million Euro and is present in many countries in
Europe, Asia and Africa. Hydroscand Machine has expanded it´s business to worldwide exports.
No matter where in the world you are, always know that: We stand by our machines.

2. General precautions
Always make sure in advance that the minimum safety, placement and operating
standards are respected, taking note of the environmental conditions, tempera-
ture, humidity, lighting, vibrations, suspended dust and the appropriateness of
the area to be occupied.
For unloading from pallet or moving of an unpacked machine, the lifting device
on the top must be used. Any other lifting device may cause damage to people,
property or the machine itself.
The cutting machine is constructed to operate indoors (workshops, industries
etc.) where there is no risk of explosion or re.
Do not combine the machine with other equippment unless you have an approval
from the manufacturer. If other equippment are installed on the machine, or if the
machine is combined with other equippment it’s necessary to make a risk analysis
and a CE approval for the whole foundation.
Before cutting the rst hose, make sure that the cutting blade rotates in the cor-
rect direction (see rotation arrow) and that the hose is placed steady towards the
adjustable cutting support. Also make sure that the hose is held steady so that
there will be no risk for injuries or damages. Do not put your hands in the cutting
blade working area.
Do not remove the information plates on the cutting machine. Make sure they are
readable and that you are sure about their meaning. Should they deteriorate, re-
place them immediately by contacting an authorized Technical Service.

or manipulations - however slight- shall exempt Hydroscand Machine AB from any
