The knife latch prevents the knife assembly from
moving down whenever the hydraulic motor is
not running. The latch is located on the table at
the rear of the machine (Figure 2-40). A spring-
extend air cylinder drives latch. The latch is en-
gaged (cylinder extended) whenever the hydrau-
lic motor is off.
