STARTING PIN

1. The machine is supplied with a tapered starting pin (A)

Fig. 34, which is used as a support when starting the

cut. The starting pin (A) is placed in one of the tapered

holes (B) in the table.

2. Place the work in the first position using the guide pin

as a support (Fig. 35). Swing the work into the cutter as

shown in the second position (Fig. 36). The work will be

supported by the collar and starting pin (Fig. 36).

3. After the cut has started, swing the work free of the

starting pin and let it ride only against the collar (third

position, Fig. 36). ALWAYS FEED THE WORKPIECE

AGAINST THE ROTATION OF THE CUTTER.

Advancing the work to the cutter without

the side support of the starting pin will

provide serious kickback. ALWAYS USE

THE STARTING PIN.

REPLACING SPINDLE CARTRIDGE

1. IMPORTANT: When replacing the spindle cartridge (B) Fig. 37, loosen the bolt (A). Remove the spindle cartridge.

Replace with a new spindle cartridge. Tighten the bolt (A) ONLY 7 to 10 foot pounds.

2. Always align the spindle pulley (D) Fig. 38, and motor pulley (E) to provide maximum belt performance and to reduce belt

wear. To check the pulley alignment, place a straight edge against the underside of both pulleys (Fig. 38). If an

adjustment is necessary, loosen the set screw (F) and move the motor pulley up or down until the two pulleys (D) and

(E) are aligned. Tighten the set screw.

3. Using light finger pressure on the belt between pulleys (D) and (E) Fig. 38, a deflection of approximately 3/32" will

constitute proper belt tension.
