[4] AUTO/MANUAL switch
Used to select the automatic or manual mode of operation. Turned to
“
(MANUAL)” to cause the machine to make one cut. Turned to “
(AUTO)” to cause the machine to automatically operate according to the
preset cutting data.
NOTE
O When the machine is first started in the MANUAL mode and then switched to
the AUTO mode during the downfeeding of the sawhead, the first cut is not
counted, but the subsequent cuts are counted as the number of pieces cut
during automatic operation. This function can be used for the machine to
automatically cut the work after it trims the end of the work.
O If the switch is turned to MANUAL during its automatic operation, the machine
stops immediately. When the switch is turned to MANUAL during cutting, the
machine stops after completing the current cut.
