IMPORTANT
This section describes the function, location, and
operation of the individual machine components.
It does not describe how to operate the machine.
Do not operate the machine
until you are familiar with the
location and function of its
individual components.
Failure to familiarize yourself
with
the
individual
components before operating
the machine may result in
serious personal injury or
death.
MAIN ELECTRICAL
DISCONNECT SWITCH
Hazardous voltage is present on
the input side of the saw's main
electrical
disconnect
switch
even when the switch is turned
off. Contact with this voltage
will cause serious injury or
death.
The main electrical disconnect switch (A, page C-
4) is located on the door of the electrical
enclosure. The switch has two positions:
Position:
Function:
OFF - "O"
The machine's electrical circuits
are disconnected from the power
source and the machine will not
operate. See "Danger" above. The
switch can be locked in the "Off"
position by pivoting the red part of
the switch out and inserting
a lock through one of the holes in
the switch.
ON - "I"
The machine's electrical circuits
are connected to the power source
and the machine can be operated.
Note: The door of the electrical enclosure can
only be opened when the electrical disconnect
switch is turned to the "Off" position.
AUTO / MANUAL SWITCH
The Auto / Manual switch (B, page C-4) turns the
electric back gauge on or off, allowing material to
be sheared automatically when the material
touches the electric back gauge, or manually with
the foot switch.
Auto -
Use the "Auto" position when you
want the machine to shear automatically
when the material touches the electric
back gauge. When operating in the Auto
position it is not necessary for the operator
to step on the foot switch to activate a cut.
The Auto position is particularly useful
when shearing many pieces to the same
length.
Manual -
In the "Manual" position the
machine operator must step on the foot
switch before the material will be sheared.
SHEAR / NOTCH SWITCH
The "Shear / Notch " switch (C, page C-4) selects
between full stroke and short stroke operation of
the shearing and notching stations.
Notch -
This position is recommended
when using the notching station. It
reduces the amount of travel in the
notching
station
which
makes
the
notching station safer for the operator and
reduces cycle time.
Shear -
This position is recommended
when using the shearing station as it
provides maximum shearing capacity.
Note: The machine will not operate when "Shear"
stroke is selected and the notching station's safety
guard is open.
