SLAB SAWING MODE

To begin slabbing of rock material, turn the toggle switch to the MIDDLE/OFF position (fig 3) and secure the

material in the rock vise by opening the vise jaws wide enough to fit the material to be cut. Retighten the jaws

with the wing nut screws on the rock vise (fig 14). The vise should be positioned close to (but not touching) the

diamond blade by placing the clutch lever in the disengaged 12 o’clock position (fig 10) and moving the vise

forward toward the blade (fig 15).

Once the vise is positioned close to the blade, loosen the wing nut on the front of the vise (fig 16) and laterally

move the vise to the desired slab thickness to be cut by turning the cross-feed handle (fig 17) clockwise or

counterclockwise. Retighten the wing nut on the vise.
