4 Handling

Push the splitting saw through between the legs
of the animal and the overhead mounting that
the animal suspends from. Turn on the belt saw
and move it towards the spine, keeping the
saw/saw belt running all the time. Move down
the centre of the animal's spine using the guid-
ing implement on the saw to split the slaughter
cattle into two halves. Try to perform the whole
operation as a single cut until the two halves of
the animal have come apart and are hanging
separately.
 Prior to use, check the mains supply, trans-
former and unit for matching operating data.
 Hold the splitting saw firmly with both han-
dles and switch on
 Move the saw into the carcass while in oper-
ation.
 Remove from the carcass with the saw still
running, then release both switch levers.

4.1 Switching on

Do not switch on the saw until
the saw belt is correctly placed
around the driving and belt re-
turn wheels as well as in the
two guiding implements!
Mind to check the following points before
switching on the saw! This will help to almost
entirely avoid premature saw belt failures or in-
terruptions of the slaughtering process.
 Prior to switching on, check if the belt saw is
functional and complete.
 the saw belt is properly installed;
 the water supply is correctly connected and
turned on;
 the suspension is correctly mounted and
fully operative;
 the guiding implements are spring supported
and able to move freely;
 a sharp saw belt has been installed immedi-
ately before starting work (see section
"Mounting the saw belt");
 the general safety instructions are obeyed
(see section "Safety instructions").
Both lids must be closed before you can switch
on the saw (safety lock-out).

Never reach into the area of the
moving saw belt. Risk of cut-
ting off extremities!
Improper use will result in in-
creased wear!
Wear eye protection or safety
goggles when completing
work!
