Safety Precaution Sheet

To be read carefully

before use

1. The operator(s) should be fully instructed in the use of the machine and

its cut-off wheels according to the Instruction Manual and the

instructions for the cut-off wheels.

2. The machine must be placed on a safe and stable support table. All

safety functions and guards of the machine must be in working order.

3. The unit must be installed in compliance with local safety regulations.

4. Use only intact cut-off wheels. The cut-off wheels must be approved for

min. 50 m/s.

5. The machine is not for use with saw-blade type cut-off wheels.

6. Observe the current safety regulations for handling, mixing, filling,

emptying and disposal of the additive for cooling fluid.

7. The workpiece must be securely fixed in the quick-clamping device or

similar. Large or sharp workpieces must be handled in a safe way.

8. Do not work on or around cutting table when the table is repositioned

using the forwards/backwards key (vV).

9. To achieve maximum safety and lifetime of the machine, use only

original Struers consumables.

10. The cutting handle should be lowered slowly and carefully, in order to

avoid breaking the cut-off wheel.

11. Struers recommends the use of an exhaust system as the materials

being cut may emit harmful gasses or dust.

12. The machine emits only moderate noise. However, the cutting process

itself may emit noise, depending on the nature of the workpiece. In

such cases, the use of hearing protection is recommended.

13. The machine must be disconnected from the mains prior to any service.

Cooling Unit (optional)

To connect the electric cable for the recirculation pump, remove

the upper back plate on Discotom-50 and follow the

instructions on the wiring diagram found on the inside of the

back plate.

Check that when the power is turned on, the pump rotates in

the direction indicated by an arrow on the top of the pump. If

not, switch two of the phases to the pump motor and re-check.

Replace the back plate.

Clamp the inlet hose to the pump and attach the other end to

the water inlet on Discotom-50 i.

Attach the connector pipe to the water outlet k, mount the

large outlet hose and secure with the large hose clamp.

Place the tank on the trolley.

Place a disposable plastic insert (EXOSP) in the tank and fold

it over the rim.

Fill the tank with 63 l water and 2 l Struers Additive. The

water level should be 8-10 cm below the upper rim of the tank.

Fit the tank lid and sieve.

Roll the trolley into its proper position and place the outlet and

overflow drain hoses k& hinside the cooling water tank.

Adjust the hose lengths if necessary.

IMPORTANT

cToo high a level of coolant in the tank might damage the pump. To avoid

this, place the disposable insert so that the pre-punched hole is in front of

the overflow aperture in the tank.

dAlways maintain the correct concentration of Struers Additive in the

cooling water (percentage stated on the Additive container).

Remember to top up with Struers Additive each time you refill with water.

If the recirculation pump is overloaded or blocked, a thermal cut-

out will switch the pump off. This safety cut-out must be reset by

pushing the red button on the back of the Discotom-50 dbefore

the machine can be restarted.
