Just a quick note before you get started.
We wish you the best with your new machine.
The owner’s manual attached is NOT a thesaurus for how to cut stones.
Others do a much better job at that than we.
Although we have a rather generous drain tube setup, I must caution you NOT to use too much water drip.
Just enough to keep the lap wet. When swarf mixes with the water, it can cause the drain tube to clog and
over flow. Check the drain flow and make sure there is little standing water on a regular basis.
The machine was calibrated before shipping. You only need to dop a stone and start cutting.
You will notice that we have recently upgraded the display. It is now microprocessor controlled and has
several unique features. Upon power up the display will show “Err”. This is your prompt to lower the dop
arm to its vertical down position and press the toggle switch on the right side of the control box. The
machine is now calibrated. As described in later text you can also set the desired cut angle and again
toggle the calibration set switch a second time. This will allow you to cut to “0”. There is one other
feature concerning the display. Always turn the speed control to zero “0” before reversing turntable
direction, If you do not, the microprocessor may reset itself to the “Err” display. If you reverse the motor
while the turn table is rotating, you stand a very good chance of flipping the drive belts off of the pulleys.
This will be evident, because the motor will hum but the lap will not turn. In this case, the “Err” will alert
you to remove the belt guard and replace the drive belts.
If you have any questions, please contact us at 256-883-8988 or on the web at chasmusi@knology.net.
Good luck
Charlie
