Water supply
The cooling water of the saw system ows from the frequency inverter of the unit to the
water distributor at the wire saw. The water is fed to cool the motors of the drive rollers on
the one hand, and as spray water to the diverter rollers and to supply the water lances on
the other.

Operation
Positioning and securing the wire saw
DANGER
Due to wire saw rolling away.
Switch on the wire saw only when it is level and upright. If it is on an inclined surface,
secure the wire saw to prevent it rolling away.
The wire saw must be rmly secured to the oor by means of dowels and anchor bolts.
Auxiliary item support
To ensure the wire saw is secured in position, it is possible to extend a support mounted
on the side of the unit and fastened appropriately.

Correct cutting direction
Tensioned side and slack side
The saw cut should be made with the tensioned side (Z) of the diamond wire, because this
provides the best conditions for cutting.

Starting the wire saw
Proceed as follows:
9Diamond wire is mounted
9The control unit is connected to the mains and the water supply.
9The wire saw is connected to the control unit.
9The compressor is connected to the control unit.
9The EMERGENCY OFF control unit is deactivated.
9The pneumatic valve is in position B.
9The pressure regulator is set to 1bar.
▶Press the start push-button (lamp lights up green).
▶Now start the cutting process by slowly turning the potentiometer clockwise
(position 1-2).
▶Check the direction the saw wire is running while at a low wire speed. When the wire is
turning in the correct direction, the wire will be drawn over the lower swivel roller.
▶Once the wire is tensioned, it is possible to increase the wire speed to 20-22 m/s.
▶Increase the working pressure via the pneumatic valve until the display on the main mo-
tor indicates 25-35 A.
INFORMATION
The machine will cut automatically when the load and wire speed have been set to an
optimum. The wire is taken up in the wire store until the stroke is completed and the
machine is turned o automatically via the safety switch. This safety function prevents
the wire tension dropping, the wire dropping out of the rollers and the machine becoming
jammed due to a lack of attention.
