HANDLING/TRANSPORT
The machine will normally be shipped bolted to a wooden pallet. The bolts should be
removed and the machine lifted onto the work place using suitable lifting equipment.
INSTALLATION
The machine must be fixed to a firm, and level work surface, bolted down by a minimum of
twobolts located in opposing corners of the machine. Mounting information can be found in
Appendix 1–Mounting Information.
Connections should be made to an appropriate 12v / 24v DC electrical supply by a
qualified electrician. Standard wire colour coding is applied where the RED wire terminal
must be connected to the positive/live supply terminal, and the BLACK wire must be
connected to the negative/neutral supply terminal. For electrical schematic see Appendix 2
–Wiring Schematic.
A separate 160 ‐180 amp battery coupled to a split charger is recommended. Alternatively
a 110 ‐120 amp battery can be used for light duty. To ensure a maximum 12 volt DC
supply is delivered to the machine, a minimum cable size of 25 mm square with a
maximum length of four meters can be fitted. A suitable isolator and overload protection
device should be fitted to the voltage supply line.
Prior to operation, ensure that the blade is free to rotate without fouling on any of the
guards and that the guards are operating correctly and covering the cutting blade
completely.

7
PRELIMINARY CHECKS
Place the machine on a stable surface. Where applicable, ensure that the power supply
line is fitted with a differential safety breaker and overload cutout.
LIGHTING
The equipment does not have its own lighting and so it must be used in a suitably
illuminated area.
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
Regular inspection of the guards must be carried out and under no circumstances must
the machine be operated with damaged or inactive guarding.
The cutting blade should be regularly inspected for damage and lose of cutting
performance. A damaged blade must NOT be used. Where the machine is in constant use
a daily check is recommended. If the blade is damaged or the cutting performance is
reduced the blade will need replacing (or regrinding).
MACHINE DESCRIPTION
A bench mounted, electrically powered rotating circular, toothed knife. Cutting operation is
powered by hand. The machine is intended to be used for cutting steel wire reinforced
rubber hydraulic hose or similar.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
To move the hose support pillars (object 4 of Appendix 3 –Machine Diagram), unscrew
the clamping handle 1‐2 rotations, slide the pillar to position, and re‐tighten the clamping
handle. Set the hose support pillars an equal distance apart from the blade, so that when
the handle (1) is pushed down the hose is put under reasonable bending strain to relieve
pressure on the sides of the blade during the cutting operation.
Place the hose into the cutting jaws (6) so that the hose bends out towards the user and is
supported by the hose support pillars (4). Ensure that the cutting mark is directly between
the hose cutting jaws (6). Switch on the machine using the green portion of the control
button (3) and push the handle downwards SLOWLY.
Allow the blade to cut through the hose at a controlled rate without excessive slowing of
the blade. When the hose is cut, allow the handle to return to a fully up position where the
blade is fully covered and switch off the machine using the red portion of the control button
(3).

8
MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
Regular inspection and routine cleaning of the machine, focussing especially on the guards
(Appendix 3 ‐7 & 8). Under no circumstances should the machine be used if the guards have been
damaged or removed.
The cutting blade should be inspected regularly for signs of wear or damage. DANGER! The
machine must not be run if the blade shows signs of damage or stress cracking as projectiles may
cause serious injury as the blade rotates at very high speeds.
To replace the blade, follow the instructions in Appendix 4 –Blade Replacement Instructions.
NOISE EMISSION
Readings taken of this model of machine, mounted on a wooden work bench in the working
position at a distance of 1.1m above floor level was 75dB(A).
Information Relating to Cutting Blades
Guidelines for Correct Cutting
Initially, a new blade should be broken in. This is achieved by using the blade very carefully for 15-
20 cutting operations on a hose size which does not demand the full capability of the machine.
It is essential that the hose is forces to bend away from the blade using the provided hose support
pillars. It is also essential that the bend is symmetrical about the cutting edge.
When cutting a hose the hose must not be ‘slammed’ or forced unnecessarily against the blade as
this can cause blade fracturing or cracking, leading to premature blade failure. An elevated cutting
speed will have an inversely proportional effect on the quality of the cut, and of the life of the blade.
Avoid twisting the hose during the cutting operation as this can impact the quality of the cut.
Blade Wear
Each blade is subject to high forces during normal operation and will show signs of wear over time.
It is not possible to guarantee a blade for a number of cuts or a duration of time as this is entirely
subjective and all blades will experience a different duty cycle.
The warranty of the cutting blade is extended only to defects in geometry and manufacturing, and
does not cover excessive wear or failure due to improper or abusive use.
Replacement Blades
The cutting blade is the only consumable element of the HCL mobile cutter, and is the only
element which will be readily available for spares.
It is recommended that only cutting blades obtained from the original machine supplier be used
with the machine.

Appendix 4 –Blade Replacement Instructions
The following instructions detail how to change the cutting blade of the HCL mobile Cutter.
DANGER! Cutting blades are extremely sharp and must be handled with extreme care at
all times to avoid injury.
Remove four M6 dome head bolts from the front guard (two each side) and the M4 bolt at
the top of the front guard, as shown above. Remove the front guard by sliding it forwards
as shown below.

14
Remove the two M6 socket cap bolts from the pivot block as shown above. Note! that the
tension within the handle spring will attempt to work against this operation during undoing.
Pivot the handle, and pivot linkages, the cutting jaws, and the pivot block up above the
rear cover as shown below.

15
Remove the M6 clamp plate bolts (x2) by locating a bar or hex key into the torsion restraint
holes in the blade boss, shown above. Once both bolts have been removed the clamp
plate can be removed and the blade can be carefully removed and replaced as shown
below ensuring that the teeth are pointing in the correct direction. Once the new blade is
installed these steps can be repeated in reverse to reinstate all of the machine
components. Ensure that thread locker is applied to the blade clamp bolts on reassembly
to prevent loosening over time.
