MACHINE OPERATION
1. Raise the frame and lock it into place by turning the manual flow control valve clockwise (CW) until it stops.
2. Adjust material you plan to saw to the desired cut off length. Turn vise screw handle clock-wise (CW) to tighten.
Always be sure the material is properly secure before cutting.
3. Push the blade START button to start the machine.
NOTE: If the coolant selector switch is in the ON position, the coolant pump will turn on with the motor.
Check to ensure there is adequate coolant in the coolant tank.
4. Adjust frame weight for the material to be cut. Refer to the Wellsaw “Select-O-Chart” for the recommended settings.
(L = light, M = medium, H = heavy)
5. Open the manual flow control valve. Turn it counterclockwise (CCW) to the desired feed rate.
NOTE: When breaking in a new blade, always reduce the frame feed rate to on half (½) the normal rate of
descent.
6. The saw will automatically shut off at the end of the cut. Raise the frame and lock it in to place. Repeat the above
operation for additional operations.
NOTE: The saw may be turned off at any time during the cutting operation by pressing the STOP button on
the operator control panel or by pressing the KILL SWITCH (frame down limit switch) on the front of the
machine.
