Intended use

The device, in conjunction with an appropriate cutting blade, is suitable for cutting and simultaneously sealing the edges of
cord, ropes, cables, belts and braided sleeves made of fully synthetic fibres such as polyamides, polyacrylonitrile, polyester,
polyethylene etc.

This assumes, however, that the material consists of fully synthetic fibres, w i t h o u t any non-fusible threads in the weft.

The cutting blade is directly electrically heated to approx. 600°C in 6 to 8 seconds by a safety transformer. Any
thermoplastic material that comes into contact with this cutting blade melts. In the fibre arrangement, the individual warp
and weft threads if close enough have a tendency to flow into each other, thereby forming an uninterrupted, sealed edge.
The edges sealed in this way do not fray, prevent tears and in many cases mean that there is no need for a hem.

Operation under adverse ambient conditions is not permitted.
Adverse ambient conditions are:

 Wet conditions or excess humidity;
 Dust and flammable gases, vapours or solvents;
 Strong vibrations.

Safety information

For safety reasons, the unauthorised modification and/or alteration of the heat cutting device is not permitted.

The voltage must be supplied using a regular mains socket on the public grid. Attention must be paid to the supply voltage
specified on the type plate.

Ensure that the heat cutting device is correctly commissioned, paying attention to the Operating Instructions.

The commissioning must be performed by qualified staff in order to ensure the safe operation of this product.

Make sure that the power cord does not come into contact with heat, oil or sharp edges during operation of the device.
Damaged power cords can cause fires, short circuiting and electric shocks.

Do not expose the heat cutting device to high temperatures, strong vibrations or moisture.

Devices powered by mains voltage do not belong in the hands of children.
Please exercise special caution when children are present.

Damage caused by a failure to observe these Operating Instructions invalidates the warranty!
We will not assume any liability for consequential damage!
We will not assume any liability for damage to property or for personal injury caused by incorrect
use or failure to observe the safety instructions. All warranty claims will become invalid in these
cases.

When working in rooms, t

he vapours that arise on the cutting blade during cutting

must

be removed

directly using an extractor fan. Or only work in well-ventilated rooms.
PVC and PVC-coated materials may not be processed due to the harmful vapours arising during
cutting.

Pay attention to the risk of burns when using the device!
The cutting blades can reach temperatures of approx. 700° Celsius. Do not touch the cutting blades
once you have switched the device on. Do not lean the blade holder against objects before the
cutting blade has cooled down completely.

Danger! Danger to life due to electric shock!
A fatal electrical shock can result if water gets into the housing.
Keep the device away from water.
If water does get in, pull the plug out immediately and do not continue to use the device.
