5.1N FEED RATE CONTROL
This valve controls the down feed rate of the saw head and is used in the set-up of the up and down
stroke control of the saw head. To adjust the down feed cutting rate of the head, turn the control all the
way to the right (clockwise) and then, open it one turn. The down feed rate is set by sound. Start with a
slow rate and gradually increase it until the blade chatters, then back it off slightly. Selecting the
proper blade and the condition of the blade will effect the down cutting rate dramatically. There is also
a down feed regulator, located on the machine, that provides constant down pressure on the material.
5.1O POWER INDICATOR LIGHT
This light indicates that the main switch (A) is on and that there is power to the control panel.
6.0 MACHINE OPERATION
6.1 SELECTING THE PROPER CUTTING SPEED
In cold sawing, there is no such thing as a general purpose blade. To achieve the best results from your
saw, proper blade selection is important. Each saw is shipped with a pitch (number of teeth) calculator,
which will help to determine the proper blade for your application.
When sawing flat stock or rectangular solid sections, determine the thickest section that will be cut and
use the equivalent square size on the pitch calculator to determine the proper blade.
The CPO-315-HFA is designed to use a maximum 12-1/2 inch (315mm) diameter blade. 10-3/4 inch
blades are also available for this machine.
The chart below gives the surface feet per minute for the various spindle RPM’S:

The proper blade speed is also important. The High speed (176 RPM) is recommended for thin walled
tubes and nonferrous tubes and profiles. Some materials will require test cuts at both speeds to
determine the best speed for the application. The Low speed, 18 RPM, is recommended for solid sections
of mild steel and alloy tubes.
