− | '''Rip Cut'''
| + | #Adjust the radius by turning the knobs on the back of the machine. This adjusts the distance between the rollers. |
− | | + | #Adjust the amount of pinch using the knobs on the front left of the machine for materials of different thickness. If the gap between the rollers is too far apart the material will slip on the rollers. |
− | 1. Ensure that the material you are cutting has at least one straight edge and no nails or foreign objects. The straight edge will slide against the fence when ripping.
| + | #Begin by pulling the right side of the top roller out of its slot. |
− | | + | #Insert your piece that you would like to roll between the rollers. |
− | 2. Measure the width of the board and determine the width of cut desired.
| + | #Re-secure the top roller inside of the slot prior to rolling. |
− | | + | #Slowly rotate the handle until you have rolled to the desired radius. If the initial radius is not the desired radius, re-roll at a slightly tighter radius. |
− | 3. Lift the locking handle on the fence and slide the fence to the desired cut width using the scale. Make sure you use the scale for the correct side of the blade.
| + | #Unlock the top roller to slide your rolled metal off the end of roller. |
− | | |
− | 4. Lock the fence by pressing down on the locking handle.
| |
− | | |
− | 5. Use the elevation handle on the front of the saw to set the height of the blade approximately 1 tooth above the height of the material by placing the material next to the blade as a guide. This limits the exposed blade.
| |
− | | |
− | 6. Turn on the main power switch on the front of the saw and the dust collector. The green light on the saw will flash and turn solid green when the saw is ready.
| |
− | | |
− | 7. Make sure nothing is touching the blade. Turn on the saw by gently pulling on the red start paddle switch located on the front of the machine. The paddle switch is also the off switch when pressed.
| |
− | | |
− | 8. Line up the flat side of the material with the fence without touching the blade. The fence is a guide and the material should be pressed firmly into the fence as well as down on the table. If the board is warped make sure that curved side is face downward.
| |
− | | |
− | 9. Slowly feed the material in towards the blade while keeping your fingers at least 6" from the blade. Use a push stick to keep fingers away from the blade.
| |
− | | |
− | 10. Make sure you keep a firm hold on the material and do not stop feeding the material until it has passed beyond the blade.
| |
− | | |
− | 11. It is helpful to have someone assisting on the back side of the saw to help hold material being fed off the table. Make sure the person helping does not pull on the material.
| |
− | | |
− | 12. When the saw cut is complete, press in on the paddle switch to turn off the saw and lower the blade below the table to keep anyone from accidentally cutting themselves.
| |
− | | |
− | | |
− | '''Cross Cut'''
| |
− | | |
− | 1. Move the fence off to the side by lifting the brake handle and sliding the fence off to the side.
| |
− | | |
− | 2. Place the cross cut sled on the table by aligning the table slots with the rails on the sled.
| |
− | | |
− | 3. Slide the sled over the blade and use the material to set the blade height using the blade height handle on the front of the saw. The blade should be roughly one tooth taller than the top of the material.
| |
− | | |
− | 4. Place the material flat edge against the back of the sled and align the material with the edge of the blade.
| |
− | | |
− | 5. Once the blade is clear pull the red paddle switch to turn on the saw.
| |
− | | |
− | 6. Slide the sled forward to cut through the material at the desired location.
| |
− | | |
− | 7. Slide the sled back to you so it clears the blade.
| |
− | | |
− | 8. Power down the saw by pressing the red paddle switch located on the front of the machine.
| |
− | | |
− | 9. Lower the blade below the table using the crank handle on the front of the machine.
| |
| | | |
− | 10. Reset the space by cleaning up any dust, turning off the equipment, and lowering the blade below the table to keep anyone from accidentally cutting themselves.
