Cutting Operation
1. Make sure power is properly connected to saw and that all guards are in place.
2. With the saw OFF and NO material in the vise, raise the saw bow several inches and allow
the bow to lower. Adjust the needle valve to increase or decrease the descent speed to
controlled speed.
3. Raise saw head high enough to fully clear the material to be loaded into the vise and hold in
place by closing ball valve on hydraulic cylinder.
4. Open vise and load material. (Provide additional support for longer material).
5. Be sure the blade is NOT in contact with the material when the motor is started.
6. Energize the motor by pressing the green start button.
7. Allow the saw to come to full speed, and then begin the cut by opening the ball valve and
letting the head down slowly onto the work. DO NOT DROP OR FORCE THE BLADE.
8. Adjust the needle valve on the cylinder to increase or decrease the descent speed to
produce the desired cut. Allow the weight of the saw head provide the cutting force.
9. The saw should automatically shut off at the end of the cut. If not, stop the saw by pressing
the Red stop button.
10. Remove the cut as well as the uncut material from the saw. Clean the chips from the vise,
blade guides and blade.
CAUTION:
Always wear proper eye protection with side shields, safety
footwear, and leather gloves to protect from burrs and sharp edges.
NEVER operate saw without blade guards in place.
