time, puller belts can and do acquire 'set.' If this occurs, let the puller run for 20-30
minutes before use. This should remove any set from the belts.

combination puller/cutter.
This can cause damage to the equipment and injury to personnel. Use the

nect first.

brought to a controlled stop. For safe stoping, always follow the sequence
given above.
