9.4 Setting Cutting Length
Setting the cutting length removes the need to repeatedly measure work-pieces for repetitive
cuts of a single length.
Measure and mark off the length of material desired to
be cut-off.
Load the work-piece.
Line up the cut
Clamp the work-piece.
Loosen the hex nut at the base of the bar riser (A).
Slide the bar riser (A) along the long rod (C) so that the
tip of stop bar (B) touches the end of the work-piece.
Tighten the hex nut at the base of the bar riser (A).
The stop bar in use
Cut off the first length of work-piece.
Unclamp the work-piece
Slide the work-piece forward until it reaches tip of the stop bar (A).
Clamp the work-piece.
Then proceed with the operation cycle
9.5 Operation Cycle
Set the miter cut angle, if necessary
Open the vise, if necessary
Load the work-piece
Clamp the work-piece
Adjust the bar stop for cutting length, if necessary
Check that the main power light is ON (A).
Set the speed (C).
Set the coolant switch (B).
Grasp the control handle (G).
Press the trigger switch (F) to start.
Pull down the control handle (G). Apply a steady and
constant pressure.
After cut off
Raise control handle slowly
Press the stop button (D)
Use vise lever to open the vise
Remove or feed the work-piece forward
Repeat operation cycle, if necessary
The chopper is now ready to start work, bearing in mind that the CUTTING SPEED and the
TYPE of DISC combined with a suitable descent of the head are of decisive importance
for cutting quality and for machine performance.
When starting to cut with a new disk, in order to safeguard its life and efficiency, the first two
or three cuts must be made while exerting a slight pressure on the part, so that the time
taken to cut is about double the normal time.
