SECTION 4: OPERATIONS

Operation Overview

The purpose of this overview is to provide the nov-
ice machine operator with a basic understanding
of how the machine is used during operation, so
the machine controls/components discussed later
in this manual are easier to understand.
Due to the generic nature of this overview, it is
not intended to be an instructional guide. To learn
more about specific operations, read this entire
manual, seek additional training from experienced
machine operators, and do additional research
outside of this manual by reading "how-to" books,
trade magazines, or websites.
To complete a typical operation, the operator
does the following:
1.
Examines workpiece to make sure it is suit-
able for cutting.
2.
Sets blade gap adjusters equally to suit
workpiece gauge and material.
3.
Uses appropriate tools to place and remove
materials in machine point-of-operation.
4.
Adjusts rear work stop for length of cut.

heavy leather gloves.

up against left side work stop.
8.
Slides workpiece under blade and up against
rear work stop.

Presses foot pedal to make cut.
