PROBLEM
PROBABLE CAUSE
SOLUTION
3.5
5a. Blade speed too fast.
5b. Guide arms too far apart.
5c. Not enough blade tension.
6a. Excessive blade tension.
6b. Excessive feed rate.
7a. No coolant.
7b. Coolant line blockage.
7c. Coolant pump inoperable.
8a. Piece counter set at "0".
8b. Motor overload has tripped.
8c. Control circuit fuse has
blown.
9a. On machines so equipped,
the out-of-stock or blade
breakage limit switch has
been tripped.
10a. If blade wheels run clock
wise, wrong phase order in
power connection to saw.
10b. If pump is noisy, low hydrau-
lic oil.
4b. Reduce.
5a. Reduce.
5b. Adjust accordingly.
5c. Blade tension is determined
by system pressure. Check
that system pressure is as
specified earlier in this
section.
NOTE: New blades tend to vibrate
until they are "broken in".
6a. Blade tension is determined
by system pressure. Check
that system pressure is as
specified in this section.
6b. Reduce.
7a. Add coolant.
7b. Blow out coolant lines.
7c. Check and replace if it is
necessary.
8a. Reset Piece Counter.
8b. Depress each of the reset
buttons on the main control
box. Depressing one reset at
a time and trying to start the
saw will indicate which motor
was overloaded.
8c. Replace the fuse with a 5
Amp 250 Volt AG1 type fuse.
Random blowouts may occur
but a quickly repeated blow
out indicates an internal
wiring fault.
9a. Reload with stock or remount
blade.
10a. Stop immediately; reverse
any two of the three line
phase connections.
10b. Stop immediately; add
hydraulic oil (see hydraulic
maintenance earlier in this
section).
7. No coolant flow.
8. Saw will not start.
9. Saw starts but will not run after
Start Button has been re-
leased.
10. Saw starts but no hydraulic
functions.
6. Excessive blade breakage.
5. Blade vibrating excessively.
4a. Blade tension is determined
by system pressure. Check
that system pressure is as
specified earlier in this
section..
4b. Excessive feed force.
4a. Not enough blade tension.
4. Blade stalls in cut.
