MIST COOLANT SYSTEM
Mist Coolant – the air powered pump delivers a regulated number of pulses of lubri-
cant to a single applicator nozzle.
The unit has two control screws.
Pulse / Minute – adjusts rate of lubricant use. About 8 to 12 pulse per minute is
optimum – more is not better.
Air Screw – regulates the jet of air that projects the lubricant from the nozzle onto
the blade. Adjustment should be such that lubricant covers the blade without blow-
ing the mist beyond the back edge of the blade.
Note: New blade may require initial lubrication with a small quantity of mist coolant
applied to the blade at the idler guide arm to prevent squealing.

OUT OF STOCK LIMIT SWITCH
The activator plate is located on the shuttle movable jaw
plate, and the limit switch is mounted to the shuttle vise
frame. A 5/16 hex bolt is positioned on the activator plate
to trip the limit switch and shut down the saw when the
shuttle vise closes without encountering a work piece.
If the Out-of stock limit switch is tripped during any auto-
matic cycle, the cycle is halted when the saw is shut down.
However, the PLC retains all job and que information,
including quantities cut, so that when the cycle is manually
restarted, it will continue from the same point.
