Protective eyewear or goggles must be worn at all times while attending & operating the metal saw.
Do not attempt to operate the machine unless all safety guards are in operation. The guard must fully cover the blade when the head is in the uppermost position.
Ensure that hands & arms are kept clear of the cutting zone when the machine is operating.
Do not wear loose clothing with long sleeves & oversized gloves, bracelets, necklaces or any other loose object that may become entangled in the machine’s blade during cutting. Long hair must be tied back or placed in a hair net. Always disconnect the power supply to the machine before carrying out any maintenance work or adjustments. This includes cases of abnormal operations of the machine.
Any maintenance work performed on the hydraulic, pneumatic or coolant systems must be carried out only after the pressure in the system has been released.
The operator MUST NOT conduct any risky operations or those not required for the cutting in course (e.g. remove swarf shavings from the machine while cutting). Never move the saw while the machine is operating.
Always keep the workplace are as clean as possible. Remove equipment, tools or any other objects from the cutting zone.
Support the workpiece on both sides of the machine to prevent it falling or jamming during the cutting cycle.
Brobo Group brobo.com.au

Ensure that the specimen being cut is secured firmly in the vice clamps & the machine has been correctly set. Figure A show some examples of how to correctly clamp different specimen profiles. Before commencing the cut, be sure the vice(s) is securely clamped & the machine set-up is correct.
Figure A. Correct Clamping of Cutting Specimens
Do not use cutting blades of different sizes to those recommended to the machine’s specifications. Always follow safe practices & inspection procedures when installing blades (Please refer to section 5.1 Changing the Blade).
When cutting very small specimens, ensure that the workpiece is not dragged behind the back fence support, where it could get lodged behind the blade.
If the blade jams during a cut, activate the emergency stop function immediately. Do not continue forcing the blade through. This could damage the blade, the specimen or be a cause for potential injury to the operator. Always turn off the machine before carrying out any repair work. Consult the Brobo Group Engineering Department in the country in which the machine was initially purchased.

Using a non-flammable & toxic free solvent, clean the machine to remove any corrosion protective coating prior to use.

  1. Ensure that both the air & electric power systems are turned on, where applicable. The electrical power source must be available before any pneumatic functions will operate.

  2. To adjust the angle of the cutting surface, if necessary, loosen the 2 bolts, as shown in Figure 10. Fine-tune the angle required, then replace & re- tighten the 2 bolts.

  3. Place the cutting specimen you wish to cut into the vice clamps. Manually adjust the clamps so that the jaws are clamped firmly to the workpiece. With a pneumatic vice, manually adjust the clamps to a clearance of 3 – 7mm. (For correct clamping of material, please refer to section 2.3 Advice for the Operator). NOTE -The vice clamps advance with an approximate 10mm pneumatic stroke to apply a clamping pressure of 6 bar (87 psi).

Figure 10. Angular Adjustment Bolts

  1. Position the vice clamps & component as close to the blade as possible without interfering with the travel of the blade or guard. Vice relocation is required whenever the head angle is altered.

  2. For pneumatic vices, set the vice clamping pressure from the pressure regulators located on the main control unit door. If for any reason this pressure is not available on a continuous basis, the regulator on the air service unit must be set slightly below the available line pressure, & the safety low-pressure indicator valve needs to be reset to correspond with the newly available pressure. The need to change the pressure is necessary to allow for lighter materials with hollow cross sections to be cut without deforming the walls thicknesses.

  3. To initiate the cutting process, either turn the switch to 1 or 2 settings or press the START buttons. Vice jaws automatically close & apply clamping pressure. Position blade to commence cutting through component & maintaining a constant forward feed cutting rate until the end of the stroke. Return saw cutting head to the initial rest position. Vice clamps release workpiece

  4. The machine is ready for the next cutting cycle.

3.3. Operation Recommendations
Select the correct saw blade with the correct tooth pitch & form to suit the material to be cut to provide minimum burr & maximum blade lifespan.
Use the smallest diameter blade & coarsest pitch that is practical within the required speed & material limitations.
Generally, use a tooth pitch to give 2 – 4 teeth engagement with the material during cutting. Ensure that sufficient coolant is flowing over the cutting teeth. Do not allow the machine’s gearbox to run idle in the upright position for more than 3 minutes otherwise,
damage can occur to the drive system. The rate of feed affects the quality of the final cut & blade life. This varies also by the material & cross-
sectional dimensions. When cutting stainless steel or high carbon steel (Brinell hardness above 200), the slowest speed machine should be used together with a cobalt type high-speed steel blade. When manually feeding the saw head, keep in mind to maintain a steady, continuous pressure, thus avoiding work hardening on the cutting piece. Avoid `forcing’ the blade through the material as this might damage or break the blade. As a rule of thumb the softer the component, the faster the rate of speed. Thus, it is recommended that slower speeds be used for hard & tough materials & higher speeds for soft, ductile materials. Note that for non-ferrous materials such as brass, copper, aluminium etc. require much faster speeds than provided on this machine. If these are the majority of materials cut, a Brobo NF Series machine should be considered.

Attach the new spring to the lower spring bracket. Use the hole that is closest to the centre of the

pivot block.

Attach the inner guard and then the blade.

10. Attach the outer guard to the machine using the shoulder screw. When tightened, ensure that the outer guard is still free to pivot on the shoulder screw.

11. Attach the outer guard linkage arm. Note the upper part of the linkage arm should have the spring and eyelet of the linkage on the outside of the outer guard, and the bottom of the linkage arm should be mounted so that the eyelet is on the inner side of the lower bracket.

CHAPTER 5 – Adjustments for the Saw Unit
5.1. Changing the Blade
To replace a worn saw blade:
DANGER ­ ELECTROCUTION Make certain that the power to the manual saw is turned off before proceeding with changing the saw blade.

  1. Disengage the linkage arm that is between the guard linkage system & pivot block (at the pivot block by compressing the spring & moving the bolt through the slot).
  2. Slide the saw guard up as far as possible (as if it was opening during a cutting cycle) to gain access to the spindle nose.
  3. Loosen the spindle screws (LH thread), using the 14mm Allen key provided, & remove the counter plate. To loosen the spindle screw, insert the wrench (short end) into the socket head cap screw & firmly knock the wrench with the palm of your hands until the screw is loosened. If this method fails to free the screw, place a piece of timber under the blade of the machine, & loosen (or tighten) the screw while holding the saw head of the machine down (blade against the timber).
  4. Remove the worn saw blade away from the spindle hub. Using a soft brush, clean the face of the spindle, counter plate & mounting faces of the blade of any dirt or swarf that was trapped by the previous cutting cycles.
  5. Place the old saw blade into the new blade packaging & disposed of it safely. Carefully mount the new blade onto the spindle hub, ensuring that the blade is rotating into & towards the back fence, & replace the counter plate utilising the drive pins as guides as it passes through the pinholes on the blade.
  6. Rotate blade back against the drive pins in a counter-clockwise & finger tighten the spindle screw. 7) Firmly retighten the spindle screws, ensuring that the saw blade spins uniformly & aligned parallel with the
    safety guard.
  7. Lower the outer guards & make certain the pin of the linkage arm is re- engaged with the track on the inner guard & reconnect the guard linkage.
  8. The new blade is ready for use. To check that the blade is performing correctly, carry out a sample cut on a piece of off-cut.
  9. If optional devices are supplied, mount the stock support & rollers on either side of the clamping table. Normally stock should feed on the left to right, but it can be feed from the right to left if required.
    Brobo Group brobo.com.au

5.2. Adjusting the Cutting Angle

The back jaw wear plates on the Brobo Group S315/S350/S400 Series Metal Cutting Saw are typically fitted in
the following manner. For angular cutting, the wear plates should be repositioned to provide the maximum support on one side & clearance on the other (Figure 11).

Standard Cut

Angular Cut 450

Figure 11. Angular Cut Positions
i. To adjust the angle of the cutting surface, loosen the socket head screws shown in Figure 10, located on the back jaw face that clamps the table, using the hexagonal wretch provided.
ii. Fine-tune the angle required. The shot-pins have positive locations at 90 & 45 right & left. Adjust the angle on the back fence to suit.
iii. Re-tighten all the previously loosen socket head screws. The saw is now ready for use.
5.3. Cutting & Feeding Speeds
As previously highlights, the rate of feed largely affects the quality of the final cut. As such, the blade life is also dependent on the feed at which it is cutting the sample material – in particular, the type of material & also the crosssectional dimensions. Thus, to extend the life of the blade, maintain a firm & steady pressure whilst allowing the blade teeth to cut at an optimum rate. Do not force the blade through the material! This could cause numerous problems including breaking the blade teeth, jamming the blade with the cutting part or fracturing the blade spindle.
The cutting action also generates a large amount of heat within the cutting sample due to frictional contact. Should this heat affect the material you are cutting in any way, the heat should be dissipated using the coolant system.
5.4. Refilling the Lubricator
To refill the lubricator bowl, twist the bowl anti-clockwise & slide it down to detach it from the lubricator unit (There is no need to disconnect the air supply to the unit). The unit can now be refilled to the line positioned near the top of the bowl, which is approximately 10 millimeters from the top edge of the bowl. Do not fill the bowl above this line, as the lubricator unit will not function properly. Replace the lubricator bowl in a reverse manner by sliding the bowl upwards, ensuring that the feed tube is located inside the bowl, & twist it clockwise to lock it into position.
Brobo Group brobo.com.au

5.5. Adjusting the Brobolube Unit
When assembled, the Brobolube unit is a precise instrument that supplies an accurate quantity of lubricant directly to the saw blade before it contacts the workpiece. There are 2 control variables available for the operator:
Air Flow (Volume) Delivery Regulated with the tap (needle valve), this can be adjusted from initial, completely closed to fully open states. It is highly recommended that the upper end of the flow range be utilized to allow an adequate airflow to deposit & evenly distributed the lubricant onto the blade while maintaining a fine lubricant mix. If the needle valve is not open sufficiently, the air to lubricant ratio may vary & may result in a substandard distribution of lubricant to reach the blade teeth.
Lubricator Flow Rate This controls the fluid flow rate & is adjustable via the slotted needle valve situated on top of the lubricator. The consumption of Brobolube is factory set to 4 drops per minute. This has been examined to produce a sufficient mix of air & lubricant, & it is recommended to use this initial setting. On this setting, approximately 55 cubic centimeters (lubricator capacity) should last for 20 hours of continuous cutting. If for some reason the setting needs to be altered, the needle valve should be turned clockwise to reduce or anti-clockwise to increase the fluid flow respectively.
NOTE i. Although the lubricator is capable of delivering a much higher flow rate of lubricant, it is suggested that you
do not increase the flow rate excessively because: No significant increase in blade life or lubricating efficiency will be achieved (confirmed by test results). Excessive application of Brobolube will only result in a waste of fluid. The excessive application will produce swarf that will be wet (oily) & harder to clean up than dry swarf
produced from the correct supply of Brobolube. ii. The amount of Lubricant (when set correctly) delivered by the lubricator is not easily visible to the naked
eye. If in doubt that lubricant is being delivered, first check to see if lubricator itself is delivering droplets at its sight glass. If still unsure whether lubricant is being delivered, disconnect the supply tubing to the tap (needle valve) & hold the tube against some blotting paper for a few seconds while the lubricator is operating.
Brobo Group brobo.com.au

5.5.1. Lubricating Oil Precautions – Health Hazard Information
The Brobolube lubricating fluid has no known adverse health effects. “Brobolube” is non-toxic, odourless, nonflammable below approximately 350ºC, & non-corrosive, although it may affect some types of rubber. There are no traces of sulfur, chlorine, phenol or nitrates found in Brobolube. When comes into contact with skin, the oil may be removed by wiping away the excess, then washing the contaminated area with detergent & water. If the oil is utilized at high temperatures, appropriate protective apparel should be worn as the oil could cause burns to skin or eyes. If splashed by hot oil, immediately run cold water over the burn area & apply first aid burn treatment. If the Brobolube delivery line breaks or becomes disconnected during operation, ensure that the air supply to the system is disconnected before repairing the problem. It is recommended that footwear with anti-slip soles be worn at all times. Any spills will result in potentially hazardous slippery surfaces & should be dealt with promptly to prevent physical injury resulting from falls. Do not use coarsely, combustible material like sawdust to soak up oil due to the potential risk of spontaneous combustion. Spilled oil should be transferred into non-porous containers of suitable strength. Any remaining oil should be cleaned up with sand or other non-combustible, absorbent material. Place the sand & oil mixture into containers & disposed of by an EPA approved landfill or alternatively, by a suitable non-polluting method. In addition, rags soaked in oil should not be burned. Do not pour oil down the drain, which would ultimately contaminate the water supply & pollute the environment.
For firefighting purposes, either use CO2, dry chemical or foam retardant to extinguish the flames.

CHAPTER 6 ­ Maintenance & Selection of Consumables
6.1. Role of the Operator
The person operating & maintaining the Brobo Group S315/S350/S400 Series Metal Cutting Saw must familiarise themselves with these instructions for their own safety & that of the others, in addition to safeguarding the production of the machine. Responsibility must be taken by the user on the general maintenance & up keeping of the unit as specified in this chapter, with particular emphasis on:
Check to ensure that other operators of the machine always aware of & comply with the relevant safety instructions & standards as specified in Chapter 2 – Safety and Accident Prevention. Therefore, check that the safety devices are operational & work perfectly & personal safety requirements are complied with.
Ensure that the working cycle is efficient & guarantees maximum productivity, inspect the: o Functions of the main components of the machine o Sharpness of the blade & coolant flow o Correct working parameters for the type of material being cut
Verify that the quality of the cut meets the requirements & that the final product is free from any machining defects.
6.2. Maintenance Requirements
All maintenance must be carried out with the power switched off & the machine in emergency stop condition.
To guarantee for optimum operation, all spare parts must be Brobo Group originals.
On completion of maintenance works, ensure that the replaced parts or any tools used have been removed from the machines before starting it up.
Any behavior not in accordance with the instructions for using the machine specified in this manual may create hazards and/or safety risks for the operator.
Therefore, read & follow all the instructions for use & maintenance of the machine & those on the product itself.
6.3. General Maintenance of Functioning Components
The general maintenance operations that should be carried out regularly are as follows:

  1. Keep the vice clamps, overall machine & path of the cutting blade free of any offcuts, accumulated swarf & coolant using compressed air or preferably thread-free cloth.

  2. Observe the oil level on the gearbox. The first oil change should be performed after the initial 60 hours of operation & 500 hours of operation thereafter. Use BROBO Gearbox Oil (Part No. 9501090) Refilling point is situated in the handle bar mounting threaded hole. The required quantity to refill is 800 ml for the S315/S350/400 gearboxes.
    Brobo Group brobo.com.au

  3. Change coolant as required, or whenever the coolant starts to get dirty or emits a stale odour. The coolant compensation tank should be checked regularly. Coolant level would expect to naturally decrease over time due to natural evaporation. Use premium quality coolants such as CoolTech 500 or SlideTech 68. Coolant is available from BROBO GROUP Pty. Ltd. in 2 liter & 20-liter packs (Part No. 9301570 & 9501080): Concentrate, Ratio 1:20

  4. Lubricate the saw head pivot shaft & rotary table regularly (after every 40 hours of operation, or weekly) with an NLGI 2 extreme pressure grease, Shell Alvania No.1 grease or equivalent.

  5. Clean the vice & lubricate any moving joints or sliding surfaces with good quality oil. 6) Clean the machine regularly & keep any unpainted surfaces lightly oiled to protect from rust & corrosion. 7) The air supply for the pneumatic air vices should be checked regularly such that it is free of any condensed
    water molecules & the filter should be drained frequently. 8) Ensure that the machine performs cuts perpendicular to the work surface.
    If not, contact Brobo Group engineering department. 9) Test that the blade is at right angles to the workpiece back fence.
    If not, contact Brobo Group engineering department. 10) Check that the 0 notch on the fixed worktable is aligned with the graduation on the turntable. If not, adjust
    as described in Section 5.2. 11) Examined that the precision of the 15, 30, 45 left & right stops are correct & accurate. If they are not
    adjusted properly, proceed as described in Section 5.2. 12) Regularly empty out the swarf catcher, resting directly above the compensation tank, of any offcuts & swarf
    that has collected during the numerous cutting cycles.
