Barranca Diamond 6-inch TS6 Trim Saw - Manual (Page 16)

1
The Rock Vise accessory has cross feed threads attached to an indexing or crank handle to laterally
adjust the vise so that chip thickness is accurately controlled before each chip cut.
These threads should be lubricated periodically with wheel bearing or lithium grease to allow for ease
of rotation of the cross feed crank.
Should the wooden jaws on the vise become worn or start delaminating, replacement jaws can be
made from 1/2" (12.7 mm) plywood.
Rock Vise Accessory
The TS6 is equipped with a 5/8" - 18 left-hand fine threaded arbor shaft with sealed ball bearings
mounted in an aluminum bearing arbor housing.
A bore die cast zinc coated pulley is mounted on the shaft outside the reservoir. Unusual noises ema-
nating from the saw tank or arbor area, slower then normal cutting speeds and overheating of the shaft
or belt are indications of arbor / bearing wear.
Blade Arbor Assembly and Pulleys
NOTICE Using the saw with a worn arbor / bearing assembly can result in permanent damage to
other components of the saw.
Periodically check the tightness of the four blade arbor housing mounting bolts to ensure they are se-
curely tightened to the oil reservoir (see Figure 16).

Should the die cast pulleys on either the motor or blade arbor shaft need to be removed or replaced,
loosen the set screw on the hub of each pulley with a US standard Allen / hex wrench to remove the
pulley from the shaft (see Figure 17).
