The machine will automatically close the vise and proceed to advance the head. Upon reaching the head down limit,
which under most operating conditions should be set to the bottom most travel of the head. The blade will turn off, the
head will go up to the preset head up limit and the vise will open. Subsequent cuts from the same material may be
made by repeating step 3 through 6.
Setting Head Up and Head Down Limits
The machine can be setup to restrict the head movement in Semi-Auto mode between bottom and top limit settings. Dur-
ing normal operating conditions where a complete through cut is required, the head down limit should be set to the bottom
most position of the head travel. Setting the head down limit at any other position will result in a partially cut piece.
The head up limit should be set according to the material height. In cycle mode the head will respect these two preset
limits.

Machine Parameters
Machine parameters control the behavior of the machine, the type of optional equipment, which may be installed, and the
language in which to communicate with the operator. Modifying machine parameters may adversely effect the behavior of
the machine. Prior to making changes care should be taken to ensure a complete understanding of each parameter and
its effect on the operation of the saw.
To enter machine parameters toggle the main power off and on. Press the MACHINE PARAMETERS AND MACHINE
START buttons in that order.
To move from parameter to parameter press the HEAD DOWN or HEAD UP LIMIT button. Notice the horizontal arrows
under the button depicting forward or backward scroll thought the parameter list. To change the value of a parameter use
the HEAD DOWN LIMIT button. Notice an up arrow under the button depicting an upward change in value. The button to
the right of the HEAD DOWN LIMIT clears the parameter value.
