cutting of the profile with the bimanual switch.
2.17 At all times, think of the possible consequences before approaching the more dangerous
zones (eg. pressors zone, cutting zone) with the hands.
3. CHARACTERISTICS
UNIVER 330P - 332P - 400P -330IP - 332IP - 400IP – 402P/ IPmitre double saws, produced by
PERTICI S.p.A., are used for cutting:
- plastic profiles, mainly P.V.C. (polyvinyl chloride) and profiles made of light alloys and assimilable
materials.
3.1 Description of machine
The UNIVER 330P - 332P - 400P -330IP - 332IP - 400IP – 402P/IPmitre double saws have two
heads, one fixed and one mobile; the mobile unit is moved by means of a handwheel, with the
micrometric movements being controlled with a device on the side of the mobile unit, for the exact
setting of the desired cutting length.
The cutting length can be read on the millimeter ruler, running the whole length of the machine,
with the reading aided by a magnifying glass.
The two cutting units have adjustable plates that can be turned to make cuts of up to 45°to the
right and to the left, and the blade support heads can be set to 45°to the horizontal axis.
The UNIVER 330P - 332P - 400P -330IP - 332IP - 400IP – 402 P/IPmitre double saws have two
mobile supports, positioned between the two units, providing a particularly useful support surface
for longer cuts.
All the models are available in three versions, based on maximum cutting length.
A special mobile guard closes off the blade completely, guaranteeing operator protection.
In the "P" class models, the blade lowering is controlled by pneumatic actuators.
In the "IP" class models, the blade lowering is controlled by oleopneumatic actuators.
These actuators are controlled by a bimanual device that keeps both hands occupied during the
cutting.
The speed of movement can be set in relation to the material being cut, by means of a variator on
the side of the pneumatic cylinder (from 0 to 6 m/sec) (Fig.A1.8).
The UNIVER 330P - 400P -330IP - 400IP 402P/IPmodels have two horizontal interlock actuators
and two vertical ones, located on the bases or on the mobile supports.
The UNIVER 332P - 332IP models have two vertical interlock actuators located on the bases.
All the interlock cylinders are mounted on jointed supports, and can be set to the cross-section of
the profile of the workpiece to be cut (Fig.A1.9).
A modal switch ST (Fig.A1.3), on the electrical panel, can be used to cut out one of the two
operating units, allowing the machine to be used as a single saw.

4.2 Positioning
The machine must be positioned on a stable floor and fixed to the ground. Be particularly careful
not to position the machine close to areas where there is gas or inflammable substances, as the
sparks and glowing fragments produced and scattered may cause explosions or fires.
Position the machine in a place that is suitable for the work activities and easily served for
connections to:
1) Electrical power supply.
2) Compressed air supply.
3) Cuttings extraction system.
Ensure that the lighting is adequate all around the machine, especially in the cutting area.
Remove the machine from its packaging and check that it has not been damaged during transport.
PERTICI SPA accepts no liability for damage caused during transport. Please check the state of
the pack at the time of purchasing the merchandise.
4.3 Work clearances
The space required to work correctly is a distance of 150 cm all around the machine: Addendum 1
(Fig. A1.4 - A1.6) gives the measurements for the different models and the areas around the
machine in which great care should be taken, where persons or objects may constitute obstacles
or hazards in relation to the work activity.
4.4 Setting to work
Reassembly of feed actuators (Fig. A1.10):
To reduce the size of the package and to prevent breaking the head feed actuators, these devices
are locked apart from their fulcrums. When reassembling, make sure that the locking ring is fitted
properly into the pin housing.
Check the level of the guides and work surfaces, both lengthwise and crosswise, using a spirit
level.
Check the level along the whole length of the machine.
Adjust the 4 support screws (VA M8) on the outsides of the feet to set the machine to level; after
levelling, fix the machine to the floor with the 8 bolts (VB maximum diameter 10 mm), making
reference to the floor anchorage lay-out (Fig. A1.7).
The only installation work that needs to be done is hooking up to the various supply networks, as
described in sections 4.5, 4.6 and 4.7.
Before setting the machine to work, especially if this is the first start-up or if the installation is in a
new location, take note of the precautions and suggestions given in the following pages on the
various hook-up procedures.
