SECTION 2C, MECHANICAL CONTROLS
COOLANT FLOW
A generous flow of coolant should be applied in order to increase
production and blade life.
Machine is provided with two independently controlled coolant
spouts.
-One from the adjustable guide arm. This one should always flood
the blade with coolant. Slight adjustment may be required when
changing the blade speed. A properly adjusted flow of coolant should
cover the blade which in turn will carry it into the cutting area.
-Second, the coolant hose assembly attached to the out feed fence
should be used in cases when cutting solid bars, bundles or wide
structurals. The flow of coolant should be directed into the opening
created by the blade.
NOTE: When cutting materials that do not need coolant (cast
iron) some coolant flow is required to provide blade lubrication to
prevent blade scoring by carbides.
VARIABLE VISE PRESSURE
This options allows the operator to adjust the vise pressure. This can be valuble when cutting light structurals
and tubes. By reducing the vise pressure from the system (H18=1000, H22=1100psi) pressure, distortion of
materials is prevented. The controls are located at the drive end of the machine.
