HYDRAULIC FEED CONTROL
The hydraulic feed control is mounted on the front of the machine.
The FEED RATE VALVE (FRV) sets the maximum feed rate when the blade encounters little or no resistance, as when
cutting thin cross-sections, or falling freely without any work piece.
The FEED FORCE VALVE (FFV) sets the degree of slow down as the blade encounters resistance from the work piece.
0% results in extreme slowing of feed, and 100% results in limited, but perceptible slowing of feed, as resistance is en-
countered.
