8 The mechanism also has adjustment screws that enable the saw blade to “track” evenly o n the blade wheels. The adjustment screws change the angle of the dri ven blade wheel shaft so the wheels are aligne d. Tracking adjustments are generally made after the saw blade is changed but may be required pe riodically due to wear over time. An electr[...]

(Refer to the Parts section for s[...]

11 Evaluating Cutting Efficiency Is the blade cutting efficiently? The best way to determine this is to obse rve the chips formed by the cutting blade. If the chip formation is powdery, then the feed is much too light, or the blade is dull. If the chips formed are cu rled, but colored – blue or straw colored from heat generated during the cut –[...]

12 Starting the Saw Important : The efficient operation of the cut-off saw is dependent upon the con dition of the saw blade. If the performance of the saw begins to deteriorate, the first item that you should check is the blade. If a new blade does not restore the machine’ s cutting accuracy and quality, refer to the troubleshooting guide (or th[...]

13 Coolant Flow and Nozzle Position The coolant pump must be submerged before operating to prevent damage to the pump. Adjust the coolant flow shut-off valve at the top of the saw head weldment. The flow should be no more than the saw blade can dra w into the workpiece by the movement of the blade. The coolant flow can be stopped in two ways:  b[...]

Adjustments Blade Tracking Adjustment Refer to Figures 13 and 14. Blade tracking has bee n set and tested at the factory. Adjustment is rarely required when the blade is used properly or if the blade is correctly welded. If adjustment is needed: 1. Using the blade tension handwheel (D), make sure the blade is properly tensione d. Note: Blade tensio[...]

15 Repeat the insertion of t he paper between the wheel shoulder and the blade until the paper is cut in two pieces. Note: You may have to repeat the check with the paper several times before the blade and the shoulder cut the pape r into two pieces. Do not hurry the adjustment. Patience and ac curacy here will pay off with better, more accurate, q[...]

16 Blade Guide Bearing Adjustment Referring to Figure 16: Guide bearings and guid e inserts are located on either side of the saw blade and provide stability for the blade when the saw is in operation. These bearings rotate on an eccentric shaft so the distance from the blade can be adjusted for optimal performance. Blade guides provide blade suppo[...]

17 Verifying Adjustment Accuracy Refer also to Figure 18. Test cuts can be used to determine whether or not you have adjusted the blade a ccurately. Use 2 inch round bar stock to perf orm these test cuts, as follows: 1. With the bar stock securely clamped in the vise, make a cut through the bar stock. 2. Mark the top of the bar stock. 3. Move the b[...]
