SINGLE PART CYCLE OPERATION
In MAN mode, the PLC allows the operator to initiate a “Single Part Cycle “ to cut one piece at a desired length. To accom-
plish this, follow the procedure below.
1. A trim cut should be made before initiating the “Single Part Cycle “ operation.
2. Make sure the front vise switch is in the closed position and set the head up limit switch. The AUTO/MAN indicator
light will ash alternately green and red.
3. Make sure the head is set so that the blade is above the material and the head selector switch is in the HOLD
position.
4. The cursor will be ashing at the LENGTH position. Key in the desired value from 0” to 220” and press. If the
value is incorrect, re-enter the value and press again.
5. If the blade is not running, you will be prompted by the word “BLADE” ashing on the display window. Start the
blade and adjust the blade speed as required.
6. When the blade is started, the word “BLADE” will change to the word “CYCLE” ashing on the display window to
begin the cut. Press CYCLE START and the cycle will begin.

length movement. The head will descend and make the cut.

dow will reset for the next cut.
9. To cut another piece, repeat steps 2 through 6.
