OPERATION 

CRATER upcut saws are for cutting of non-ferrous metals like aluminum, vinyl (PVC) and wood. The operator adjusts the 

rising speed of the saw blade type and size of the material. The inner and outer sharp edges of the circular saw blade allow 
you to obtain a smooth surface at high quality

Miter Cut 

7.1.1.

 

Do not try to cut the parts / materials that you want to cut before activating the pneumatic clamps on the machine 
via the clamp switch on the operator panel. 

 

7.1.2.

 

The  clampss  on  the  machine  are  in  vertical  or  horizontal  position.  The  pneumatic  clamps  can  be  easily  adjusted 
according to the material, up & down and right & left.

 

7.1.3.

 

The clamp piston moves in the pneumatic clamps

 

During the cutting process, the clamp tips of the clamps must remain outside of the work area of the circular 
saw blade.

7.1.4.

 

Avoid  touching  the  buttons  on  the  operator  panel  randomly.  In  emergency  situations  during  cutting,  press  the 
emergency stop button immediately to terminate the cutting process.

  

7.1.5.

 

Close the front door on the chassis and control panel and lock it with the key. (If the chassis front cover is open, the 
motor will not operate for safety reasons)

.  

 

NOTE: The chassis front cover and rear panel cover can only be opened when the machine is serviced and cleaned, or when 
the saw blade is replaced. At this time, turn the Main Switch's position to position 0 and turn off the power, then open the 
front and back panel covers.

 

 

7.1.6.

 

Set the cutting angle of the material to be cut according to the graduated scale (15

 etc) on the 

machine. Loosen the tab lock retaining screw by turning it clockwise to rotate the turntable. Set the angle  to which 
you want to work with the angle adjustment switch. Do the reverse operation of loosening the turntable to secure it. 

 

 

Do not use the horizontal clamp on the side where the saw blade rotates when cutting bigger than 45 ° angle. 

 

 

 

NOTE: 

When performing miter cut operations on the machine, make sure that the clamps and right-

left miter frames are out of the operation area

7.1.7.

 

Set the length of the material to be cut to the desired unit of measure in meters. Once the desired piece size has been 
set, tighten the piece to fix the profile rest. 

7.1.8.

 

Ensure that the vertical pneumatic vices tighten the piece using the vise button on the machine. 

7.1.9.

 

Press the motor start button to rotate the saw. 

7.1.10.

 

Start the cutting operation of the saw balde by pressing both cutting start buttons simultaneously.  

7.1.11.

 

The circular saw blade will cut the fixed profile with the upward movement and continue to the closed position until 
the cut start button is pressed again after the cutting operation is finished
