Converting from 230 Volt to 460 Volt

Consult the diagrams on pages 54 and 55 for specific information on the following changes.

1.Disconnect machine from power source.

2.Change the lead connections to the main motor and to the table hoist motor.

3.Replace the RA-30 (230V) overload relay with the provided RA-30E (460V) overload relay.

4.Switch the “R” wire on the transformer from the 230V to the 460V terminal.

5.If using a plug, install a proper UL/CSA listed plug suitable for 460V operation.

Test Run

After wiring has been completed, confirm that the wires have been connected properly:

1.Connect machine to power source and press the “Main Motor” button for just an instant, then press the Stop button.

2.The cutterhead should rotate clockwise as viewed from the handwheel side of the machine. If cutterhead rotation is incorrect, disconnect machine from power source and switch any two of the three wires at "R,S,T" (see “Electrical Connections”, pages 54 and 55).

3.Re-connect machine to power source.

Controller Set-Up

To program settings in the Controller for table movement, refer to the section beginnning on page 20.

Adjustments

Depth of Cut

Depth of cut is adjusted by raising or lowering the table using the elevating handwheel or the push buttons for rough positioning; or the keypad on the Controller. The Controller is used for very precise positioning and for remembering your settings (for more information on the Controller see the section beginning on page 20).

To move the table with the elevating handwheel (Figure 3), push the handwheel in to engage the sprocket on the table elevating mechanism. One revolution of the handwheel equals 1/32” change in table height. Use the scale or digital readout to determine distance from the cutterhead.
