ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION Electrical installation must be made by authorized electrical maintenance personnel only! Refer to the machine specifications plate on the machine frame to verify that the electrical supply circuit will meet the voltage/phase/frequency/ amperage requirements listed. A basic data plate is reproduced on this manual’s introductory page.
TABLE ALIGNMENT (HMD Table) Turn the disconnect switch to "ON". Then: (a) Push the Hydraulic Start pushbutton to activate the hydraulics; (b) Turn the Post selector switch to Place the machine in desired location. Place "UP" and raise the post to its highest position; (c) a level on the machine table base plate.
TABLE ALIGNMENT (HMD Table) (Continued..) Add or remove shims under the base pads until the correct post to square clearance is obtained. With an indicator mounted to the saw guide post, check table travel by positioning the indicator to read off of the T-slot in the table. Traverse the table through its full travel and adjust to achieve from 0 to .015 inch per 30 inches (0 to 0.38 mm per 762.0 mm) of travel.
OPERATION SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Warning Label - READ and UNDERSTAND. FRICTION SAWING Thicker the workpiece, the faster the band speed required and heavier the feed force. For example, band speed should be at least The design of this machine makes it ideal for 6000 fpm (1828.8 m/min.) for 1/4 inch (6.4 mm) friction sawing. In friction sawing, momentary thick carbon steel; 12,500 fpm (3810.0 m/min.) contact between the material being cut and the for one (1) inch (25.4 mm) thick material.
