Vse Capacty

1. 

The vise maximum opening is 20.50 inches (520.7 

mm).

• 

Weight limit for the vise bed is approximately 1000 

pounds (453.6 kg); 500 pounds (226.8 kg) for each 

half evenly distributed with no impact.

Saw Band Recommendatons

1. 

A  high-speed  DoALL  Imperial  Bi-Metal  Super 

Silencer  saw  band  with  protective  Saw  Cap  is 

supplied  with  the  machine.    Band  length  is  209 

inches  (5308.6  mm);  width  is  1-1/4  inches  (31.7 

mm); recommended gage is 0.042-inch (1.1 mm); 

kerf is 0.085-inch (2.2 mm).   

2. 

A machine in correct adjustment, good operating 

condition and using proper cutting fluid is essential 

to efficient sawing.

3. 

Proper blade care should include:  

(a)

 Pushing uncut 

stock away from the saw band; 

(b)

 Using correct 

band  speed,  feed  force  and  cutting  fluids  during 

operation; 

(c) 

Removing scale from stock before 

sawing; 

(d)

 Keeping the protective Saw Cap over 

blade teeth until installation time.

 

Consult your DoALL sales representatve for 

complete nformaton about saw bands and 

ther applcatons.

or "DOWN" positions. 

2. 

Left Vse

.  This selector switch with "OPEN", "HOLD"' 

and "CLAMP" settings operate the vise on the left 

side (inboard side) of the saw band.

• 

The  "OPEN"  setting  opens  the  vise  jaws;  the 

"CLAMP" setting closes the vise jaws; and "HOLD" 

stops  vise  jaw  movement, 

t  does  not  clamp 

materal

.

• 

This vise must be clamped to start the band drive.

3.  

 

Saw  Head  Control.

    Use  this  selector  switch 

with "REV" (reverse), "HOLD" and "FWD/AUTO" 

("FORWARD/AUTO")  settings  to  regulate  the 

direction of saw head movement. 

• 

Rotating the selector to "FWD/AUTO" or forward 

moves the saw head forward or towards the sawing 

area. 

• 

Rotating the selector to "REV" or reverse moves 

the saw head back or away from the sawing area.  

• 

Turning the selector switch to "HOLD" stops all saw 

feed motion.

4. 

Rght

 

Lft Roller (Optonal).

  This selector switch 

operates the right hand (outboard) lift roller in the 

"UP" or "DOWN" positions. 

5.

.  This selector switch with 

"OPEN", "HOLD"' and "CLAMP" settings operate 

the vise on the right side (outboard side) of the saw 

band.

• 

The  "OPEN"  setting  opens  the  vise  jaws;  the 

"CLAMP" setting closes the vise jaws; and "HOLD" 

stops vise jaw movement.

 

Make sure the vse jaw s opened wde enough 

when movng materal through the vses.

6. 

Head Rapd Approach. 

 Used in conjunction with 

the 

Saw  Head  Control

  selector  switch,  pushing 

and holding this pushbutton accelerates the rate 

of speed the saw head moves towards the sawing 

area.

• 

This pushbutton is active only when the 

Saw Head 

Control

 selector is in the "FWD/AUTO" position.  The 

band drive does not have to be "ON" to operate.

7. 

Laser.  

This selector switch turns the line-up laser 

"ON" and "OFF".
