MASTER START
Push green Master Start button and hold until illuminated.
This enables all machine operations. All Emergency Stop
buttons must be reset (out) to activate this button. Pushing
the emergency stop or loss of communication to the opera-
tor screen will disable the master start.
EMERGENCY STOP
Push to stop machine operation at any time. Pull out and
twist at the same time to reset. There are three emergency
stops on the machine, one on the operator station, one on
the top of the cutting head, and one at the end of the Bar-
feed. All three must be reset or out to operate the machine.
AUTO
Pushing this button puts the machine in the Automatic
Mode. The adjacent red indicator light is on when the ma-
chine is in Auto Mode. Push again and the red light will turn
off indicating the machine is in Manual Mode. This button
is also used to cycle stop the machine after running in Auto
Mode. If this button is pushed when running in Auto Mode,
the red light will go out and the saw will fi nish the current
cut cycle and then shut down. If this button is pushed while
the Operator Screen is in the “QUICK JOB” or “MULTIPLE
JOB” location the machine will cut the multiple length parts
as programmed. All other screens will enable the single
length programmed.
RESET COUNT
Pushing this button will zero the current count of cut parts.
The count can also be changed on the Operator Screen.
NO TRIM CUT
This feature allows the operator to feed the part length fi rst
in Automatic Mode instead of making a trim cut fi rst. Before
running the machine in Auto Mode, push this button and the
light will turn on indicating the machine will push the mate-
rial forward in Auto Mode before making the fi rst cut. This
feature is very benefi cial for saving time if the trim cut has
already been made. Care should be taken not to bump into
the blade when positioning the stock.
BARFEED RETURN
While pushing this button in manual mode the barfeed
moves away from the operator or towards the back of the
machine. The barfeed stops when the button is released.
The red light indicates the barfeed valve is activated. The
fi rst 3 seconds after pushing, the barfeed moves slow and
then shifts to high speed. The slow movement time is used
for ease of positioning material under the blade for a pre-
cise cut location.
BARFEED FORWARD
Pushing this button in manual mode will cause the barfeed
to move forward towards the operator or front of the ma-
chine. The light indicates the valve is activated. The fi rst
3 seconds after pushing are slow speed and then shifts
to high speed. This button is also used to home or zero
the machine. When power is fi rst applied to the machine
a prompt asks the operator to “Zero Barfeed.” This prompt
goes away after the barfeed is moved fully forward with this
button and held for 3 seconds after stopping. The barfeed
can be zeroed at any time by simply holding down this but-
ton for 3 seconds while the barfeed is fully forward.
BARFEED VISE OPEN / CLOSE
Pushing this button will toggle the vise closed and then
open upon the next depression. The red light is on when the
vise is clamped. The machine will start in Automatic Mode
in either open or closed state.
BLADE START
When pushed and held for longer than one second the
blade will start. This is the only time delayed button and is
designed this way to avoid any non-intentional blade starts.
The Blade must be running or On to go into AUTO Mode.
The red light indicates the blade is On or running.
BLADE STOP
The blade motor stops when depressed. The red light is on
when the blade is off.
SAW VISE OPEN / CLOSE
Pushing this button will toggle the vise closed then open
upon the next depression. The red light is on when the vise
is clamped. The vise must be clamped before running in
AUTO Mode. A fault will be displayed if an attempt is made
to run in AUTO without this vise clamped.
HEAD RAISE
Momentarily pushing this button will cause the cutting head
to raise until it touches the upper Limit Switch. This button
can be used as an abort or stop cut in the auto and manual
mode. The blade will also stop if it is running. The red light
is on when the cutting head raise valve is on.
HEAD STOP
Momentarily pushing this button will stop the cutting head.
The red light is on when the head is stopped.
HEAD LOWER /CYCLE START
This button will cause the cutting head to lower or feed
when pushed in manual mode. The head will continue to
lower after the button is released if the blade is on. The
head will stop upon release if the blade is off. This button
is also used to cycle start the machine in automatic mode.
If the “NO TRIM CUT” feature is turn on in automatic mode
the machine will feed a length of material fi rst when this but-
ton is pushed.
