1 Correct use of the device

1.1. The device has been constructed according to the latest technology and the

recognised safety regulations. However, danger to life or limb can arise for the operator or third parties occur during use or the device and other items can be damaged.

1.2. Only use the device in perfect condition and according to the instructions, safely

and safety conscious! Immediately repair (or arrange repair of) malefunctions which can affect safety!

1.3 The cutter is mainly used in recycling and demolition works. The cutting tool is

intended for long-term industrial use. It is designed for cutting steel, sufficiently hard non-ferrous metals, steel sheets and cables. Depending on the type of use, devices are available with different blade shapes.

Typical cutting performance is listed under „Technical Data“.

1.4 The following must not be cut:

- energised cables

- Pipes with pressurised gas or fluids

- Pre-tensioned and hardened parts such as springs, struts, steering columns and millings

- Mixed materials, e.g. steel/concrete

1.5 The device (without electrical controls) is suitable for underwater use up to 40 m.

1.6 Devices with cylinder bottom are intended for externally controlled processes.

They are mainly used on robots, cranes or other manipulators.

1.7 The manufacturer / supplier is not liable for damage resulting from incorrect use.

The user alone bears the risk. Correct use also includes observing the operating instructions and the inspection and maintenance conditions.

2 Organisational measures

2.1 Always store the operating instructions to hand at the location where the device

protective goggles, gloves and, if necessary, ear protectors.

2.3 The device must only be used by a properly trained person, familiar with safety

regulations, as otherwise there is a danger of injury.

2.4 Comply with all safety and risk notices on the device! Keep all safety and risk

notices legible.

2.5 Do not change the device, add or change anything on the device without the

manufacturer’s consent. This is also the case for fitting and adjusting safety equipment and valves.

2.6 The operating pressure marked on the device must not be exceeded.

2.7 Only original LUKAS parts and original LUKAS accessories and system

components should be used for repairs.

2.8 Prescribed and named deadlines for tests/inspections as stated in the operating

instructions must be observed.

2.9 Properly dispose of all packaging materials and removed parts.

3 General safety instructions

3.1 In the event of a malfunction, immediately shut off and secure the device. Repair

(arrange repair) immediately.

3.2 Before start-up / running and during operation, ensure that nobody can be

endangered by the running device. This also means checking the device for loose connections.

3.3 Do never grip between the blades and take care that body parts (e. g. hair, fingers)

or clothing are never insert between openly visible movable parts.

3.4 Only touch the cutting parts with protective gloves as cutting edges are very sharp.

3.5 Please note that cut material can fall or catapult away as a result of its sudden

removal and suitable protective measures should be taken.

3.6 When working, you must ensure there is sufficient illumination.

3.7 After each use of the device, check for external damage and deficiencies.

Immediately report changes detected (including changes to its operation) to the appropriate office. If necessary, immediately shut off and secure the device. Check all hydraulic and electrical lines, hoses and threaded connections for leakage and check for external damage and immediately repair. Leaking oil can lead to injuries and fires. Damaged electrical lines can lead to short circuits and electric shocks which can result in death.

3.8 All types of work which affect the safety and stability of the device are prohibited.

Damage can also occur as a result of the device falling over and/or persons can be injured by the falling device. Take care if you use a balancer that in case of a malfunction there is also the possibility that the device could fall down.

3.9 You must check that all safety equipment is complete and in perfect condition:

- Labels and notices (safety notices)

- Safety covers (e.g. hand guard, etc.) are on and in perfect condition.

3.10 When working near energised components and lines, suitable measures

should be taken to avoid current transfers or high voltage transfers to the device.

3.11 The device is filled with hydraulic fluid. These hydraulic fluids can affect your

health if drunk or if their fumes are inhaled. Direct skin contact should be avoided for this reason. When working with hydraulic fluids, please be aware that they can have a negative impact on biological systems.

3.12 The generation of an electrostatic charge producing sparks as a possible

consequence should be avoided when working with the device.

3.13 When working with or storing the device, ensure that the function and safety of

the device are not affected by large external temperature effects and that it is not damaged. Please note that the device can heat up as a result of prolonged use.

3.14 Safety equipment must never be disconnected.

3.15 Never work when overtired or inebriated.

3.16 Before transporting the device, always check that the accessories are secure.

4 Maintenance and servicing instructions

4.1 In order to carry out maintenance and service work, equipment suitable for the

work is required. Only staff with specific knowledge and experience in hydraulics may work on the device!

4.2 Clean oil and all dirt from device and, in particular, connections and screw joints

before starting working. Do not use an aggressive detergents. Use a fibre-free cloth and ensure thorough cleanliness, especially when rebuilding.

4.3 When dismantling the device, ensure that all escaping hydraulic fluid is collected,

that it does not enter the soil and that it is disposed of in accordance with existing provisions.

4.4 Always tighten loosened screws and threaded connections when assembling

and observe the prescribed torque.

4.5 Work on electrical devices may only be undertaken by a specialist electrician or

by trained persons under the supervision of a specialist electrician corresponding to the electrical technical regulations.

4.6 Aggressive media (acids, soaps, solvents, steam) can damage the device. If the
