Handle the knife with caution when you are preparing to store it.
Attention: Danger of injury due to cutting parts.
Always wear safety gloves especially when replacing knives, disassembling the cutting
tool, or while cleaning and performing maintenance operations.
1.2.3 Assembly and mounting of cutting tool
Before using the cutting tool, and when in first use, check all cutting parts for
damage; check that fastening screws are tight as well as clamping mechanisms, to
ensure proper positioning and safety.
Always mount all pieces. If possible, use corresponding parts of similar weight in
order to prevent imbalance.
Tensure that all parts of the cutter head are kept clean at all times. It is important
that there is sufficient space left to allow the correct evacuation of dust and
debris.
All cutting surfaces as well as clamping elements must be free of residue such as
resin, grease, oil and water.
Tighten/loosen the fastening screws and locking nuts, using the spanner provided
and applying the recommended torque value.
The use of tool extensions and fastening methods involving hammering are abso-
lutely prohibited.
The heads of the screws must be kept clean at all times in order to guarantee
proper fastening and secure grip with the spanner and to prevent damage to the
screws themselves.
Unless indicated otherwise, the fastening screws must be tightened in proper
sequence, that is, from the inside out.
Ensure that the tool is mounted, clamped and used in accordance with the manu-
facturer’s instructions.
Carefully read all operating instructions, which accompany the machinery and
always verify the direction of rotation.
Operation of the machinery during the mounting of the tool is strictly prohibited.
(Please refer to the Operating Instructions Manual which accompany the machinery)
Cutting parts must never come in contact with one another, with clamping mecha-
nisms and/or with other parts of the machinery.
When stacking the cutting tools, ensure that the cutting parts do not interfere with
one another. It is strictly prohibited to apply lateral pressure, for example, in order
to interrupt the operation of the tool.
