CS 960 - HAND OPERATED DOUBLE MITRE SAW

CS 960 - HAND OPERATED DOUBLE MITRE SAW - 45°

The CS960 is introducing the new generation of saws from Cassese :

Wider and Higher cuts, Concrete Base and Cast Iron Cutting Heads for perfect quality cuts and maximum reliability. It is in addition more affordable than the popular CS 939. CS960 is the safest and most accurate hand operated double mitre saw available in the market.

FEATURES OF THE CS960 SAW

· Wider cuts : 160mm (6" 1/3) / · Higher cuts : 110mm (4" 1/3)

· Horizontal cutting stroke : Improves quality of cutting even on very delicate mouldings.

. Foot-operated pneumatic clampings :

2 built-in horizontal & adjustable clamps.

Firmly secure difficult mouldings in order to avoid them from moving or rocking during the cutting operation.

They are foot operated for a « hands-free » operation.

. Hand-operated cutting stroke : Very easy moving of the handles thanks to a special pneumatic device, with an automatic return.

· 45° measuring scale : Allows a direct, speed and accurate measuring

	The CS 960 is fitted as standard with : A) An innovative system for measuring the slot base. B) A mobile stop (outside measurement)

C) Optional : A retractable stop (outside measurement) whose specific shape
provides optimum contact between the moulding and the table rule.

· No wastage : Because the blades cut alternately, the waste is effectively nil, which will save a lot of meters of mouldings, and hence money, over the life of the saw.

· Internal cutting support block : This supports the offcut and prevents chipping on the back edge of the chop.

· 1.5m support arms : Robust feed-in support arm, and feed-out measuring arm.

· No blocked chutes : Because offcuts fall directly into the open waste bin below the cut, there is no need for wastage chutes, which could be easily blocked by large offcuts.


CLEANLINESS
Complies with European Safety standards (statutory order – July 2005)
	CERTIFIED ACCORDING TO THE STANDARD
	1 mg of dust per m3 of air
	NEW COVER & REINFORCED SUCTION
	= Dust present in air < 0.2 mg per m3 of air
Fitted with a specially designed cover to optimise the 6 strategic suction points installed near the blades. The back of the CS 960 is fitted with 2 vacuum/dust collector output sockets of an external diameter of 120 mm and a cutting waste disposal.
	Each blade is connected to 3 suction points:
	B: nozzle
	C2: top cover
	C1: back cover
	Sawdust is therefore collected in a radical way.

CONSTRUCTION & ENGINEERING FEATURES

· Solid build : Weighing 950 kilos, the CS960 Saw is designed and engineered with a focus on durability, reliability and safety.

· Small width (771mm – 30" 1/3) : Front and rear panels can be removed to pass through any doorsteps.

· Cast concrete base : Absorbs all vibrations and movements for absolutely perfect cuts.

· Cast iron cutting head assembly : Avoids any disadjustment or «play» of parts for an everlasting reliability.

· Long life, heavy-duty bearings : Air is ducted to the heavy-duty bearings, which reduces overheating with heavy workloads, and increase their working life.

· Oversized blade collars : To eliminate any possible blade flex.

· Adjustable for precision and perfection : Blades are easily adjustable for accurate angle and pitch.

	MA I N T E N A N C E
	The novel design of the motor cover of the CS 960 allows it to be retracted upwards (front opening) to optimise accessibility and speed of maintenance operations, which can be carried out by a single maintenance agent.

OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES

· Right and Left-hand vertical clamps (Z15730)

. 1.0 m additional right-hand measuring extension arm - for a 2.5 m measured cut (Z15731)

. 2.0 m additional right-hand measuring extension arm - for a 3.5 m measured cut (Z15732)

· Special clamps for aluminium and thin wooden mouldings (Z16005)

. Removable Stop for shorter cuts (Z14484)

· Triple phase 380V or 230V versions available on request.

· Synchronized «switching-on» of dust extractor : The dust extractor is pre-wired to the saw, so that both machines run and stop simultaneously. This reduces power consumption and excessive noise (Z16143 for Single phase & Z16146 for Triple phase)

· Complete & powerful 2hp-380V or 220V triple phase dust extraction unit (code ASPISIE1)
