MARVEL 8 MARK III
MACHINE DESCRIPTION
D-6
© MARVEL MFG. CO., INC. MANUAL 8SDN10871N (04/08)
rapid reconfiguration of the vises for miter cuts
or for the installation of optional high vises
jaws.
The rear vise jaw rests on a ratchet nut equipped
with a set screw and is inserted into a T-slot in
the saw table. The rear ratchet is designed to
resist rearward movement under clamping
pressure, so when the stock is clamped between
the vises, the rear vise jaw is held firmly in
place by the ratchet nut. The ratchet can be
positioned as needed in the T-slot.
The front vise jaw rests on a ratchet nut
equipped with a hand crank vise screw. The
front ratchet nut is designed to resist forward
movement under clamping pressure, so when
stock is clamped between the vises, the front
vise jaw is held firmly in place by the ratchet
nut.
Stock is clamped by sliding the front vise jaw
and ratchet nut against the stock and tightening
the hand crank vise screw.
BLADE TRAVEL LIMITS AND
NOTCHING TRAVEL LIMIT
The front and
rear blade travel limits as well as the notching
travel limit are controlled by adjustable
proximity switch actuators. These proximity
switches control the carriage travel limits. See
following photo for prox switch mounting.
The front and rear carriage travel actuators as
well as the notching actuator can be located on
either the left side or the right side of the table,
depending on which side the controlling vises
are located on.
FRONT BLADE TRAVEL LIMIT: The
proximity actuator that controls the distance that
the carriage travels forward is connected to a
rail that slides in a table slot and a pin that
connects the rail to the front vice. The FRONT
BLADE TRAVEL LIMIT is positioned to allow
the blade to travel fully through the work piece
and beyond the front vise clamping surface.
REAR BLADE TRAVEL LIMIT: The
proximity actuator that controls the distance that
the carriage travels back is connected to a shaft
that slides above the front blade travel actuator
rail. The REAR BLADE TRAVEL LIMIT is to
be manually positioned to allow the blade
enough room to exit the cut from the work piece
and clear the rear vise clamping surface.
To adjust the travel limit location:
1.
Loosen the clamp screw.
2.
Slide the prox actuator rail to the desired
location.
3.
Tighten the clamp screw.
See following photo for blade travel limits and
limit rails.
Saw column shown fully retracted.
NOTCHING TRAVEL LIMIT: The proximity
actuator that controls the distance that the blade
travels into the work piece is independently
adjustable from both the front and the rear blade
travel limits. This actuator is adjusted by hand,
forward and backward with a spring clamp
