G0524 Rip Saw

-17-

For safety reasons, the saw blade must be
removed before the saw is test run to ensure
the wiring is not reversed at the main terminal
(

Figure 14). If the wiring is reversed, the saw

arbor and the conveyor track will run in the wrong
direction.

To remove the blade:

1. If not already done, make sure the saw is

not connected to the power source!

2. Loosen the saw arbor lock lever.

3. Using the blade height handwheel, raise the

blade until it is approximately

1

4

" above the

conveyor track.

4. Open the blade access door.

5. Using the arbor wrench, hold the blade arbor

stationary.

6. Using the T-handle wrench, remove the

arbor bolt by rotating it counterclockwise.

7. Remove the large blade flange and carefully

slide the blade off the arbor.

8. DO NOT re-install the arbor bolt or flange

at this time.

The saw blade is very sharp and can cause

personal injury. Always wear thick leather

gloves when working on or around the saw

blade.

Remove The Blade

Before starting the saw, make sure you

have removed the saw blade, performed

the preceding assembly and adjustment

instructions, and have read through the

rest of the manual and are familiar with the

various functions and safety issues associ-

ated with this machine. Failure to follow this

warning could result in serious personal

injury or even death!

To test run the saw:

1. Connect the power cord to an adequate

power source.

2. Put on safety glasses and make sure any

bystanders are out of the way and are also
wearing safety glasses.

3. At the front of the control panel, rotate

the red EMERGENCY STOP button until it
springs up. The control panel is now live and
any buttons you push will react accordingly.

4. Press the MAIN MOTOR START button. The

arbor should start and run smoothly.

5. The arbor should spin counterclockwise.

— If the arbor spins counterclockwise, then

skip ahead to the

step 6.

Test Run

DO NOT turn the conveyor track ON if the

arbor rotates clockwise. Reverse any two of

the power wires at the main terminal.

— If the arbor spins clockwise,

DO NOT

start the conveyor track. Press the

red EMERGENCY STOP button and

disconnect the power cord from the

power source. Reverse any two of the
power wires at the main terminal and start
again at

step 1.
