Vise pressure adjustment
Open rear door and adjust hydraulic clamping
pressure of vise with knob (D, Figure 7-7); clockwise
to increase. Recommended pressure is between 10
to 12 kg/cm
2
(142 to 170 PSI).

Bow swivel adjustment
Refer to Figures 7-8 and 7-9.
1. Remove 90° stop pin (E).
2. Lift up on lever (F) and push bow to desired
angle according to scale and pointer (G).
3. Push down lever (F) all the way until it locks into
position. If lever will not push all the way down
or does not have sufficient tightness to secure
bow, adjust screw beneath lever (F
1
).

Material stop
Refer to Figure 7-10.
The material stop is generally used when cutting
multiple pieces to the same length. Position stop
block (H) desired distance away from blade and
tighten knob.
If closer reach is needed over table, insert small rod
and upper knob (J).

Coolant flow
Coolant pump must be
submerged before operating to prevent damage
to pump.
The blade guides are fitted with coolant valves.
Coolant is provided to the fittings through
interconnecting tubing, and is dispensed directly
onto saw blade.
Adjust coolant flow valves to provide desired flow.
The flow should be no more than blade can draw
into the workpiece by its movement through the
material.
The coolant flow can be stopped in two ways: Turn
off coolant pump switch on control panel, or close
coolant flow valves.

Control panel
Refer to Figure 8-1.
Figure 8-1: control panel
Feed rate control (A)
– Sets amount of downward
force that is applied to saw blade. The feed rate is
proportional to opening of valve. Increasing valve
opening (counterclockwise) increases feed rate;
decreasing valve opening (clockwise) reduces feed
rate. When set to zero, bow is locked in raised
position.
Start button (B)
– Press to start main motor/blade.
Stop button (C)
– Press to stop main motor/blade.
Coolant will still flow.
