are:
Pressing the Z axis offsets (plus
and minus) which will control
split depth.
X axis offsets (plus and minus)
which will control the center of
the split.
Tip: Each axis is dened by a
decal applied to the Base Casting
showing direction of movement.
Reference these decals when
making offset adjustments to either the X or Z axis. Movement increments are in 1/1000th’s of an
inch or .025MM if the utilized in the metric mode.

In order to create a radius split, the user must rst measure the web thickness and
manually enter the gure into web thickness screen. Press the split icon until the
R-Split option appears. When the R-Split is selected, the point split offset icon will
display an R-Split option. When the R-Split is selected, the Point Split Offset page

right hand corner of the Point Split Offset menu will have [R-Split] icon. Press
