Make sure the new belt is properly situated
into the v-grooves of the pulley.

OPERATION
WARNING: Do not place your hands
close to the guard/clamp at any time
during operations. All guards must be
installed before using the machine.
1.
Start the motor and the air supply.
2. Adjust height of clamp so it clears the
workpiece by about 1/8".
3.
Set the appropriate stop(s) on the roller table
and load the stock on to the machine from
the infeed side.
4. When the stock is situated, press the foot
pedal to make the cut.
WARNING: If the motor is shut off, but
the air is still on, the clamp will still be in
raised position. Turning off the air will
cause the clamp to lower suddenly. Keep
hands clear! Re-starting the air will cause
the clamp to rise suddenly.
MAINTENANCE
Frequently drain any water out of the pneumatic
valve.
The exposed metal areas on the table and fence
should be kept clean and free from rust. Apply a
coat of paste wax as needed. Another option is to
briskly rub talcum powder into the surface with a
clean blackboard eraser.
Bearings should be greased through the fitting on
the center of the arbor housing (Fig. 18).
