OPERATIONAL MANUAL

Check the Hydraulic hose and control cable connectors match with that of the Rod Cutter. Attach the Hydraulic Hose from the Power Pack to the machine properly so that there can be no leaking of hydraulic fluid. Input power required for Hydraulic Power Pack is 3 Phase, 440 Volt, 50 Hz. Earthing to be done properly. Electric cable is fitted with solenoid control DC valve and Hand/Foot switch. This Hand/Foot switch is actuating the solenoid control DC valve. Connect the power cable of the power pack to a suitable wall mounted power outlet and switch on the MCB. Now place the Sucker rod to be cut between the Moving and Fixed Blade. This is to ensure that the full diameter of the job is within the center of the Blades. Hold the job with a gloved hand and see that nobody is standing on the other side. Press the Hand/Foot switch. After cutting immediately release the button of Hand switch/ Foot switch for disconnecting the electrical connection Wait for the moving Blade to retract fully before advancing the rod between the Blades for the next cut. For change or refilling of hydraulic oil open the guard plate of hydraulic power pack by unscrewing 4nos. screw. Use hydraulic oil Servo-68 or equivalent. Switch off the power pack and disconnect the power pack from the wall out-let after you finish.

MAINTENANCE

Keep all the bolts tight and joints should be lubricated at all times. Whenever the hydraulic fluid is changed, also change the filter and clean the tank before filling up. Never drop the machine which may cause serious damage to it. Always check the clearance between the Moving & Fixed Blade, after any replacement of Blades & seals.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

As for any high power cutting machine, the following safety precautions should be strictly Observed during use of this machine: Wear your safety shoes, gloves and safety glasses at all times. Remove oil or grease from your hand, tools and from the floor and area you will be working. Use proper cutting tool as per type, size and hardness of metal to be cut. While the machine is not in use, keep the Hydraulic Power Pack switched off, so that accidental pressing of Switch cannot cause any injury in case one keeps fingers between the blades by mistake. See that nobody is standing on the other end of the rod, because depending on the tensile strength of the material and flow rate of the power pack, the parted portion of the rod may shoot out at high speed causing injury. Check that the balancer and hanging arrangement is strong enough to hold the combined weight of the cutter and the job.
