PREPARATION FOR USE
1. Check the hydraulic reservoir fluid level.
Capacity is between 60 and 130 liters
depending on machine model. (See machine
specification chart). If the reservoir level is low,
or empty, check that the reservoir drain plug is
installed tightly.
2. Fill the coolant reservoir with oil or cutting fluid
recommended by the lubrication chart (remove
the splash guard and poor coolant slowly into
the chip conveyor trough). DO NOT spill coolant
over the floor. Capacity is between 80 and 140
liters depending on machine model. (See
machine specification chart).
3. Check the band drive gearbox reservoir level
gauge while the head is down. Capacity is
between 6 and 28 liters depending on machine
model. (See machine specification chart).
4. Check to see that all other point listed by the
lubrication chart have been properly checked
and serviced.
Hydraulic Start-up
1. If the first motor to be checked rotates correctly,
the band drive will do likewise.
2. All hydraulic and coolant system fluid
connections were leak tested at the factory.
They should be rechecked as start-up proceeds.
3. Turn on the electrical supply and turn the
machine disconnect switch to the “ON” position.
For information on using the controls for
the following steps, see the
“OPERATION” chapter under the
heading “OPERATOR WORKSTATION”.
4. Press the green Hydraulic Start button on the
electrical control panel to start the hydraulic
system. Then: (a) press the
Manual key; (b)
push the Saw Head Up button to raise the saw
head; (c) if the hydraulic motor rotates correctly,
the saw head will now raise from the down
position.
5. If the saw head doesn’t rise, it means that the
hydraulic motor’s rotation is reversed. Hydraulic
system operation cannot be maintained if the
head is not raised.
6. If the saw head does not rise: (a) turn the
disconnect switch to “OFF” and remove power
at the source of the electrical supply; (b)
interchange two of the L1, L2 or L3 leads to the
terminal strip; (c) restore power and perform
step 4 again.
7. As soon as hydraulic motor rotation is correct,
jog the Hydraulic Start and Hydraulic Stop
buttons several times to make sure hydraulic
and coolant pumps are primed. Then allow the
machine to run for several minutes to remove
entrapped air.
8. If the hydraulic or band drive motor overloads
open, the machine will shut down.
