3. 40 lb. Weight: This gives table the gravity fed momentum.

This is hung on the inside of the cabinet (right hand side) on the weight lever

arm. Carefully and safely as not to injure yourself, lift this weight and hang it from the

weight lever using the pin provided.

4. Install the foot pedal pad.

Operating instructions

There are four key components that must be taken into consideration before cutting

your material.

1. Blade type / pitch required for the material.

2. Speed (fpm) to appropriately cut the material.

3. Feed pressure.

4. Table feed rate

Using the chart on the inside of the upper wheel door, select the proper blade and

cutting speeds. Always securely hold your material while cutting. Using either the miter

gauge supplied with the machine, or a clamping device.

Note: Never cut free hand

unless the table is locked in the fixed position, and you are contour cutting.

Lower the guide post to approx. 1/16” – 1/8” above the material to be cut.

Once the material is clamped for cutting you must set the counter weight to apply

cutting pressure. This is done by loosening the lock knob and sliding the weight to the

front or rear of the arm. Forward will reduce pressure but assist in the tables return.

Sliding this weight to the rear will increase the feeding pressure.

The blade speed must only be adjusted

with the machine running. This can be selected

by moving the speed selector lever forward or backward to increase or decrease blade

speed. The scale on the speed selector bracket will indicate the blade speed in feet per

minute.
