CONTROL CONSOLE (Continued....)
Lower the saw head completely when the
hydraulic pump is to be shut down for an
extended period of time (such as overnight).
6.
Coolant.
Four position selector switch with "AUX",
"OFF", "BAND ON", and "ON" settings.
•
(a)
"BAND ON" allows the flood coolant system to
operate when the band drive motor is running;
(b)
"ON" allows the flood coolant system to operate
without the band drive motor running;
(c)
"AUX" is
used for the optional cutting lubrication system;
(d)
"OFF" turns off either system.
7.
Band Tension.
This selector switch with
"OFF",
"HOLD" and "ON" settings is used when changing
saw bands.
•
Turning the selector to “OFF” releases band tension
and enables saw band removal or installation.
•
The “HOLD” setting stops band tension cylinder
movement and allows the operator to position the
saw band over the bandwheels.
•
The “ON” setting pressures the cylinder and
establishes band tension required for cutting. DO
NOT operate the band drive motor unless band
tension is "ON".
• The
Band Tension
selector must be at "ON" before
the saw head will descend.
8.
All Stop.
Pushing this red button stops all machine
motors (band drive, hydraulic pump, coolant pump
and chip conveyor) simultaneously. To reactivate
machine motors:
•
If the machine was operating in "MANUAL" mode
before the
All Stop
button was pushed:
(a)
Reset the
Emergency Stop
button by turning the button head

button;
(c)
Position the stock as necessary;
(d)
Clamp both index and fixed vises;
(e)
Push the
Auto (F6)

Band/Cycle Start
button.
Hydraulic Controls
1.
Head Approach.
This valve regulates the saw head’s
descending rate. Turn the knob
counterclockwise
to “increase” the velocity;
clockwise
to “decrease”
it.
2.
Feed Force.
This valve regulates the amount of
pressure being placed by the saw band against the
workpiece. Turn the knob
clockwise
to “decrease”
pressure;
counterclockwise
to “increase” it. The
valve’s lower locking knob helps maintain the
setting.
Typical Hydraulic Control Panel.
3.
Feed Force Indicator.
This gauge shows the
amount of pressure being placed by the saw band
against the workpiece.
OPERATOR WORKSTATION
1.
Function buttons (
F1, F2
...etc.) are assigned so
that those regulating manual machine functions
are in the bottom row, those concerning automatic
functions and screen selection are in the top row.
Operator Workstation.
2.
On some screens there is a screen number in the
upper right corner such as 1 of 4 etc. This indicates
that it is the 1st of a group of 4 screens. You may
move between screens by using the arrow keys. If
there is no screen number then there is only one
screen in that group.
3. The
"F"
keys have labels located above the key to
indicate the function performed.
