1. Saf ty Pr cautions
•Read the cut-off saw and power source operating manuals prior to use.
•Only use the cut-off saw in accordance with the local working regulations on al-
lowed working time.
•Check the oil flow to the cut-off saw. The oil flow may not exceed 30 l.p.m./
1 2 bar for the 14” version, 40 l.p.m./1 2 bar for the 16” version, and 34 l.p.m./
1 2 bar for the 18” version, respectively. Please refer to page 4. A too high oil
flow can result in too high speed on the diamond disc, causing the disc to break.
•Make sure that the diamond disc is mounted correctly and firmly fastened.
•Always use diamond discs approved for handheld cutting and for the material to
be cut.
•Always use discs that are in good condition.
•From the factory, the HYCON cut-off saw is mounted with a safety trigger, which
may never be disturbed or dismounted.
•The cut-off saw has an automatic integrated security that makes the saw stop if
the diamond disc jams. However, in case of jamming, always loosen the disc from
the material, before you start cutting again.
•Start the cut-off saw just before you start cutting, and stop it again once the cut-
ting is done. Do not let the cut-off saw run freely in the air.
•In case of horizontal cutting or cutting above the head, always be aware of mate-
rial falling down.
•A fine jet of oil at pressure can penetrate the skin. It is therefore important never
to use your fingers to check for oil leaks and never to hold your face close to su-
spected leaks – use a piece of cardboard instead. If oil has penetrated the skin,
you should get medical treatment immediately.
•Never leave the cut-off saw when connected to the powerpack.
•Always use approved hoses. Contact your dealer, if necessary. Mount the hoses
correctly so that the cut-off saw rotates in the right direction.
•The operator must pay extra attention and show caution when working in difficult
working areas, such as slopes and other dangerous nature of the ground. Do not
reach too far with the cut-off saw, but always maintain a good footing and keep
your balance.
•The operator must be properly trained in using the cut-off saw or under super-
vision of a qualified instructor.

•The operator must always use protective goggles, earplugs, hard hat and shoes
when operating the cut-off saw.
•Never use the cut-off saw close to electric cables. Prior to operation, check
whether there are hidden or buried cables.
•Never wear loose clothing as it may get entangled in the moving parts of the saw.
•Inspection or cleaning of the cut-off saw, change of diamond disc or disconnec-
tion of hoses may never be done while the saw is connected to the powerpack, as
unintentional activation of the saw can cause severe damage.
•Always connect hoses to the cut-off saw before starting the powerpack. Be sure
that all couplings are tight.
•The cut-off saw may not be operated if the oil temperature is above 80 C°. Ope-
ration at higher temperatures may result in the cut-off saw getting warmer than
normal and the operator risks getting burnt on it.
•To avoid all personal injury and damage to material, all repair, maintenance and
service work must be carried out by authorized or properly trained persons only.
•A cut-off saw not in use should always be kept in a safe and dry place.
•Always make sure that the saw labels and warning signs are legible.
•Always use hoses, couplings and spares as such recommend by HYCON A/S.
•Repairs may only be carried out by experienced personnel.
•Make sure that all couplings are cleaned before connection.
•Always disconnect the hydraulic circuit before connecting or disconnecting the
cut-off saw. If this is not done, there is a risk of damage to the quick release
couplings or the hydraulic system getting superheated.

2. Oil Flow and Pr ssur
Your new HYCON cut-off saw is designed for a certain oil flow, working pressure and
maximum pressure. A too high oil flow and/or a too high pressure results in overload
of the cut-off saw, meaning that the lifetime of your new HYCON tool will not be as
expected, and that your service and repair costs will be too high.
It is important to check that the cut-off saw is not supplied with an oil flow beyond
its design capacity, that the working pressure is correct and that the maximum
allowed pressure is not exceeded.

Oil Typ s
The HYCON cut-off saw uses standard hydraulic oil, i.e. all types of mineral oil and
biodegradable oil, which comply with the following values:
Recommended viscosity 20-40 cSt
Permitted viscosity 15-1000 cSt
Viscosity index Min. 100
Temperature area -20° to + 0° C
If using biodegradable oil, we recommend the use of oil based on rape. Other types
of oil can be aggressive towards the seals. If you are in doubt, please ask your
dealer.

6. T sting
The cut-off saw should be tested before and after servicing – before servicing to
check if there are certain problems related to the saw, and after servicing to ensure
that the saw works satisfactorily. Efficient testing can only be done by means of test
equipment that includes a flow and pressure gauge.
The cut-off saw only works satisfactorily if the return pressure of the power source is
not too high - therefore check this prior to testing the saw. Mount the test equipment
at the end of the extension hose without the saw connected. If the test equipment
has a flow valve, it must be fully open during the entire test. Set the power source
on “ON”, and check that the oil flow corresponds to the technical data of the cut-off
saw. At this time the pressure may not exceed 40 bar.
Test the cut-off saw by mounting the test equipment at the pressure hose just
before the saw. If the test equipment has a flow valve, it must be fully open during
the entire test. Set the power source on “ON” and activate the cut-off saw. Measure
oil flow and working pressure when the saw has warmed up. The oil flow must
correspond to the technical data of the saw, and at this oil flow the working pressure
of the saw must be in accordance with the technical data. A deviation of up to 15 bar
is, however, within normal.
The above measurements and a visual control will ensure a fully functional cut-off
saw.

correct, and that the pressure relief valve is set correctly. Follow the instructions in
the workshop manual of the power source.
