• 

- SAW BAND HAS STALLED -  

Cause:

  The saw 

band has stalled in the material usually indicating 

that the feed rate is too high (heavy).  

Correcton:  

(a)

 Raise the saw head; 

(b)

 Reduce the 

Feed Rate

 

setting and/or increase the 

Band Speed

 setting; 

(c)

 

Start the saw band; 

(d)

 Slowly re-enter or resume 

the cut.

• 

- SAW BAND HAS BROKEN OR BAND TENSION 

IS TOO LOW -  

Cause:

  The saw band has broken 

and requires replacement or the saw band is not 

broken but has tripped the band broken proximity 

switch 

(1 PRS)

.  

Correcton:  (a) 

Raise the saw 

head to its maximum height;

 (b)

 Replace the saw 

band; 

(c)

 Start the saw band; 

(d)

 Slowly re-enter or 

resume the cut; or 

(e)

 Increase the band tension by 

turning the band tension handwheel 

clockwse

.

• 

- BAND DOOR FAULT CANNOT START BAND - 

Cause:

  One (1) or both bandwheel doors are not 

closed tightly.

  Be sure both bandwheel 

doors  are  closed  tightly  and  then  start  the  saw 

band.

• 

-  OUT  OF  STOCK  - 

Cause:

    Stock  is  too  short 

for further automatic index feed.  

Correcton:

  

(a)

 

Change the CYCLE MODE to "manual"; 

(b)

 Raise the 

saw head; 

(c)

 Place new stock onto the indexer.

• 

-  HYDRAULIC  PUMP  MOTOR  OVERLOAD  -  

Cause:

  The hydraulic pump motor overload switch 

has tripped.  

Correcton:

  

(a)

 Turn the disconnect 

switch to OFF; 

(b)

 Open the electrical enclosure; 

(c)

 Remove the cause of the overload; 

(d)

 Push all 

motor starter reset buttons; 

(e)

 Close the electrical 

enclosure; 

(f)

 Turn the disconnect switch to ON.

• 

- COOLANT  PUMP MOTOR OVERLOAD -  

Cause:

  

The coolant pump motor overload switch has tripped.  

Correcton:

  

(a)

 Turn the disconnect switch to OFF; 

(b)

 Open the electrical enclosure; 

(c)

 Remove the 

cause of the overload; 

(d)

 Push all motor starter 

reset buttons; 

(e)

 Close the electrical enclosure; 

(f)

 

Turn the disconnect switch to ON.

• 

- BAND DRIVE MOTOR VFD DEFAULT -  

Cause:

  

The VFD overload switch has tripped because of 

possile heavy feed rate.  

Correcton:

  

(a) 

Turn the 

disconnect switch to OFF; 

(b)

 Wait approximately 

one (1) minute; 

(c)

 Push the VFD reset button; 

(d)

 

Turn the disconnect switch to ON;

 setting.

SAW BAND PREPARATION

Recommended Saw Band

1. 

Saw bands recommended for use on this machine 

should be 166 inches (4216.4 mm) long, 1.25 inches 

(31.7 mm) wide, and have a 0.042 inch (1.07 mm) 

gage thickness.

Blade Guards

The following blade guards are positioned to provide 

operator safety while the machine is running:  

(a)

 A 

top guard located between the upper parts of the  

bandwheel doors; 

(b)

 Guards mounted between the  

left saw guide arm and the left bandwheel door; 

(c)

 

A guard between the right saw guide arm and the 

right bandwheel door.  

If desrable but not neces-

sary, blade guards (b) and (c) can be removed to 

help facltate saw band changng procedures.

DO NOT defeat ther purpose by operatng the 

machne wthout these guards attached.

Saw Gude Insert Adjustment

1. 

Adjustment screws for the saw guide inserts are 

located  on  the  lower  portion  of  each  saw  guide 

arm.

2. 

Follow these adjustment procedures:  

(a)

 Turn the 

adjustment screw 

clockwse

 until tight against the 

saw  band

  (do  not  over  tghten)

(b)

 Turn  each 

adjustment screw back

 counterclockwse
