OPERATION

The carriage travel, blade pivot and clamp assemblies are moved with air cylinders. The speed of the movement of the carriage assembly is controlled by flow controls located on the operator panel. Clockwise rotation will slow the table speed and counterclockwise rotation will increase the table speed.

The blade pivot assembly is moved up and down with an air cylinder located below the table. It is controlled by flow con- trols mounted on the operator panel. These are labeled table up speed and table down speed. Clockwise rotation will slow the table movement speed and counterclockwise rotation will increase the table movement speed.

The clamp assembly is moved up and down by air cylinders mounted above the clamp. They are controlled by flow con- trols mounted on the Cylinders. Clockwise rotation will slow the clamp movement speed and counterclockwise rotation will increase the clamp movement speed.

The table and clamp pressure setting is adjusted with a pres- sure regulator located on the operator panel. The pressure level setting is displayed on the gauge located above the regu- lator. The table and clamp pressure should never exceed 60 PSI.

The main filter/regulator/lubricator is mounted on the side of the machine near the electrical enclosure and should be main- tained as described in the manufacturers documentation.

This unit should always be supplied with clean dry air. Incoming pressure should be set at approximately 65 PSI. Maximum pressure is 70 PSI.

IMPORTANT: This unit should always be supplied with clean dry air. Incoming pressure should be set at approximately 65 PSI. Maximum pressure is 70 PSI.
