4.3.1. Adjustment Procedure - Lateral Play of the Vice
Adjust the lateral play of the vice in the following way:
Open the movable vice jaw to maximum extent.
‚
Loosen the M8 LOCK NUTS and loosen the M8 VICE PLAY SETTING SCREWS.
Carefully tighten the first VICE PLAY SETTING SCREW (right at the movable clamping jaw) up to a point, where you feel that the
screw (through a supporting ball) rested on the bar that pushes to the dovetail.
„
In this position, tighten the screw with an M8 LOCK NUT against loosening.
…
Use the handwheel to move the VICE MOVING BODY, so that the next VICE PLAY SETTING SCREW is in the same position as
the previous screw.

4.3.Vice
The hydraulic cylinder between the fixed clamping jaw and the jaw on the moving part of the vice facilitate workpiece clamping. Do
not use the hydraulic cylinder to align long workpieces in the vice! Such operation has to be carried out only manually or by other
means. You can set the clamping force depending on the type of material to be cut on the hydraulic unit using the VICE PRESSURE
CONTROLLER (see section 4.8.1.).
Workpiece clamping procedure:
Raise the arm above the presumed cross-section of the workpiece to be cut. Insert the material between the clamping jaws and align
it parallel to the fixed clamping jaw and set the desired cut length. Slide the clamping jaw of the movable vice to approximately 10 mm
off of the material. The clamping stroke of the hydraulic cylinder is 15 mm. Depending on the mode of the saw - AUTOMAT, or
MANUAL, clamp the material.
Check whether the workpiece is properly clamped, otherwise you risk its ejection during
cutting.
