EMERGENCY STOP
BUTTON
Pressing the red EMERGENCY STOP button will turn OFF all machine functions.

To release EMERGENCY STOP turn knob clockwise.
COOLANT SWITCH
This switch has three positions: AUTO, OFF, and ON.
In the ON position, the coolant system will operate when there is power to the machine. This
allows use of the wash gun to clean the machine.
In the OFF position, the coolant system is inactive.
In the AUTO position the coolant system will only run when the blade is on.
BLADE START
The BLADE START button will start the blade with BLADE SWITCH in ON position. The
blade will not start if there is not sufficient blade tension or head door is not closed properly.
BLADE SWITCH
This switch has two positions: ON and OFF.
The ON position enables the operator to start the blade by depressing the BLADE START
button.
The OFF position shuts off the blade if it is running. The blade will not start if the BLADE
SWITCH is in this position.
BLADE SPEED DIAL Sets the blade speed infinitely from 46 ft/min - 330 ft/min.
FEED RATE DIAL
The speed at which the head will descend can be set on the scale from 0 to 0. As the
number increases so does the feed rate.
HEAD FEED
Works only when the blade is running.
Depressing the HEAD FEED button results in head continous descent proportionally to the
FEED RATE DIAL setting. To stop head movement move the BLADE SWITCH to the OFF
position.
FAST APPROACH
Works only when the blade is not running.
The BLADE SWITCH can be at an arbitrary position.
Depressing and holding the FAST APPROACH button advances the head with fast down
speed. Releasing the FAST APPROACH button will stop the head from descending.
BLADE TENSION DISPLAY
Shows the blade tension force in kg.
Recommended blade tension is between 000 - 200 kg. If blade tension is below 550 kg
