2. Sigurnosna uputstva
Always prioritize safety when operating any machinery. Adhere to the following guidelines to prevent injury and ensure proper use of the shears:
- Lična zaštitna oprema (PPE): Always wear appropriate PPE, including safety glasses to protect against flying debris and heavy-duty gloves to prevent cuts.
- Sigurna montaža: Ensure the shears are securely mounted to a stable workbench or surface before any operation. Movement during cutting can lead to accidents.
- Položaj ruke: Keep hands and fingers clear of the cutting blades and the cutting path at all times. The blades are extremely sharp.
- Kapacitet materijala: Do not attempt to cut materials that exceed the specified capacity of the shears. Overloading can damage the tool and cause injury.
- Stanje oštrice: Regularly inspect the cutting blades for sharpness, chips, or any damage. Dull or damaged blades can cause uneven cuts and require more force, increasing rizik.
- Radna oblast: Maintain a clean, well-lit, and organized work area. Clutter can lead to trips or accidental contact with the tool.
- svijest: Do not operate the shears if you are fatigued, under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication that impairs judgment.
- Unauthorized Access: Keep children and unauthorized persons away from the work area and the shears.
- Safety Spring: Verify that the integrated safety spring mechanism is functioning correctly to prevent unintended closure of the blades.

4. Postavljanje i instalacija
Proper installation is crucial for the safe and effective operation of your Wiltec Manual Lever Shears.
- Raspakivanje: Carefully remove the shears from their packaging. Inspect the tool for any signs of shipping damage. Report any damage to the supplier immediately.
- Lokacija montaže: Select a sturdy, level workbench or surface that can safely support the shears' weight (approximately 25 kg) and withstand the forces generated during cutting operations.
- Securing the Shears: The base of the shears is equipped with pre-drilled holes. Use appropriate heavy-duty bolts, washers, and nuts (not included) to firmly secure the shears to your chosen workbench. Ensure all fasteners are tightened securely to prevent any movement or tipping during use.
- Odobrenje: Potvrdite da postoji ample space around the shears for the lever handle to move freely through its entire range of motion without encountering any obstructions.
5. Uputstvo za upotrebu
Follow these steps for safe and efficient cutting with your manual lever shears:
- Priprema: Before starting, confirm that the shears are securely mounted and that you are wearing all necessary PPE (safety glasses, gloves). Ensure the material to be cut is clean and free of burrs or debris.
- Položaj materijala: Lift the lever handle to open the cutting blades. Carefully position the material (sheet metal, round steel, or flat steel) onto the lower blade, aligning your desired cut line with the upper blade. Ensure the material lies flat and is stable.
- Clamping: If your shears model includes a material clamp or safety spring mechanism, adjust it to firmly hold the material in place. This prevents the workpiece from shifting during the cut and enhances safety and precision.
- rezanje: Grasp the ergonomic handle firmly. Apply steady, controlled downward pressure to the lever. Allow the upper blade to smoothly pass through the material. Avoid sudden or jerky movements, especially with thicker materials, as consistent force yields cleaner cuts.
- Nakon rezanja: Once the cut is complete, release the lever handle. The integrated safety spring will assist in returning the blade to its open position. Carefully remove the cut material and any off-cuts. Inspect the cut edge for burrs and deburr if necessary using appropriate tools.
6. Održavanje
Regular maintenance will extend the life of your Wiltec Manual Lever Shears and ensure optimal performance.
- čišćenje: After each use, clean the cutting blades and all moving parts to remove metal shavings, dust, and other debris. A stiff brush or compressed air can be used.
- podmazivanje: Periodically apply a light machine oil to all pivot points, hinges, and sliding surfaces. This ensures smooth operation, reduces wear, and prevents rust.
- Inspekcija oštrice: Regularly check the cutting blades for signs of wear, dullness, or damage (e.g., chips, nicks).
- Oštrenje oštrice: If the blades become dull, they can be professionally sharpened. It is recommended to consult a specialist for this service to maintain the correct cutting angle.
- Zamjena oštrice: Severely damaged or chipped blades should be replaced immediately. Using damaged blades can compromise cutting performance and safety.
- Provjera pričvršćivača: Periodically inspect all bolts and nuts, particularly those securing the shears to the workbench and holding the blades in place. Tighten any loose fasteners.
