3.2 Foundation layout and set-up :
3.2.1 Foundation :
The foundation should be constructed of reinforced concrete and must be level and flat. After
the proper leveling position has been obtained , anchor the machine with anchor bolts.
The position of anchor bolts and floor dimensions are shown in fig 4:
□Contact portion with floor
○Position of anchor bolts
Fig. 4
※All leveling bolts should support the weight of the
machine evenly .
3 – 2

3.2.2 Leveling :
The production accuracy of all precision machinery depends on the accuracy which the machine
is installed . Manufacturing tolerance of the machine can only be guaranteed if the machine is firmly
and properly installed . Once the machine is lowered on the prepared foundation . Machinist levels
should be used alternately on the vice slide plates and the work feed table , and adjust the left-and-
right and fore-and-aft level of the machine with leveling bolt .
Leveling as fig 5 below :
FIG 5
The fore-and-aft level should be adjusted so that the level of the rear end is approximately 10 mm
(3/8" - 1/2") higher than the level of the front end , to provide proper return of the cutting fluid , and
easy operation of car feeding .
The left-and-right level should be adjusted so that the level of the left end is approximately 3 mm
(1/8") higher than the level of the right end , to provide proper return of the cutting fluid , After the
proper leveling position has been obtained anchor the machine with anchor bolts .
Caution : All leveling bolts should support the weight of the machine evenly .
3.2.3 Cleaning and oiling :
After the machine has been placed in position , thoroughly remove its rust preventive coating using
a suitable cleaning solvent and then apply a coat of machine oil . To clean the machine , Kerosene is
preferable to gasoline . It does not evaporate and level dried slushy compound on finished surfaces.
Rags are better than waste as they leave no lint or strings. The machine as received by you. has been
completely drained of all oil. Before any attempt is made to run it .... Before any motor connections
are made .... every detail of the following oiling instruction must be complied with. Refer to the oiling
chart in chapter 7.
Especially , don't forget to fill up the cutting fluid mixture. Usually , the ratio of cutting fluid to
Water should be 1:30 - 1:50. Check the sight gauge to ascertain the fluid level in the tank every day.
Transmission gear box, bar feed gear box, hydraulic oil tank should to topped up monthly. Oil
levels should be strictly observed, for it is of primary importance for proper operation and long lift .

4.2 OPERATING PREPARATION
There are several steps will be taken before start the machine.
(1) CHOOSE PROPER SAW BLADE :
Select the saw blade best suited to the workpiece to be cut, Size and shape of the workpiece , and
type of material should all be considered when selecting the saw blade to be used . There is a reference
chart in chapter 7 which can help you to select the right saw blade and cutting conditions .
(2) UNPACK THE SAW BLADE :
Usually the saw blade is packed in 3 circle ,unpack it one circle first grip the part to release another 2
circles gradually , tear off the saw-cap protective shield , inspect the blade teeth , make sure that the
cutting edge of the blade teeth point to the right . If they point to the left the blade should be turned over.
(3) PLACE THE SAW BLADE ONTO BOTH THE DRIVE AND DRIVEN WHEELS ----
a. Turn the hydraulic blade tension handle clockwise , to fully loosen the driven wheel .
b. Open both the drive and driven wheel covers , place the saw blade onto both the drive and driven
wheels. Check the cutting edge of the saw blade , to ensure that it point to the right.
c. Insert the saw blade into both the left and right blade guides so that the back edge of the saw blade
touches the back-up roller of each guide .
d. The back edge of the saw blade should make contact with the flange of the drive and driven wheel ,
turn count -clockwise the hydraulic blade tension handle to tighten the saw blade , Then the blade
is properly tensioned .
e. Don't forget to tighten the insert adjusting screw .
(4) WORKPIECE CLAMPING :
a. Raise the saw frame , open the vise , place the workpiece on the roller table .
b. Gently push the workpiece into the roller-feed vise, taking care not hit the feed rollers.
c. Clamp the workpiece in vise.
(5) ADJUST THE BLADE GUIDE ARMS :
Properly position the blade guide arms according to the diameter (or the width) of the workpiece to be cut.
a. loosen the insert adjusting screw.
b. loosen the lock lever of the blade guide arm, and manually move the blade guide arm to suit the width of
material using the scale provided.
c. After adjusting the blade guide arm position ,tighten the lock lever.
d. Finger tighten the insert adjusting screw.
(6) ADJUST THE POSITION OFTHE WIRE BRUSH :
a. loosen the lock lever of the wire brush case.
b. Manually move the wire brush case so that wire brush just contacts the cutting edge of the saw blade.
c. Tighten the lock lever.
(7) ADJUST THE FEED RATE :
Select suitable feed rate for the workpiece to be cut. This varies according to the size and shape of the
workpiece, type of material , and what type of saw blade is being used. As a guide hard materias, wide
workpiece or structural sections and tubing have to be cut at a slower rate that mild steel bar.
As concerns the saw blade , high speed steel is better than carbon steel, and bi-metal alloy is better than
high speed steel. Roughly the ratio of feed speeds could be 1:2:3
4 – 3

(8) CUTTING LENGTH PRESET :
To preset the length of the workpiece to be cut ,use the precise cutting piece counter which is at front
leftside of the machine.
a. Turn the handle wheel and watch the counter to the length you want to cut. The calibration is 0.10
mm.for example: 400.1 mm
b. Tighten the lock screw.
(9) SELECT THE SAW BLADE SPEED :
There are 6 speeds provided : 25, 32, 42, 55, 70, 80 M/min
If a optional variable speed drive is equipped the speed to be 20 to 80 M/Min steplessly.
4.3 MANUAL OPERATION :
Place the workpiece to be cut on the work table , decide how long you want the off-cut , and carry
out all the procedures as described above in [2] Operating Preparation.
(1) Depress the RAISE button to lift the saw frame until the cutting edge of the saw blade clears the
workpiece by 1/2 to 3/4 inch.
(2) Turn the AUTO-MANUAL selector to manual.
(3) Clamp the workpiece.
(4) Adjust the spacing of the blade guide arms.
(5) Preset the required cutting length of the workpiece.
(6) Depress BAR FEED PORWARD button until the workpiece touch the bar stop feeler.
(7) Adjust the FEED RATE.
(8) Depress BLADE DRIVE button to start both the saw blade motor and the cutting fluid pump and the
saw frame begins to descend.
(9) After completion of the cut saw blade stops at the lower limit position.
(10) Depress the RAISE button to cut next piece again.
*. Before you start to cut the workpiece, you must inspect that....
*. The workpiece is well clamped.
*. The saw blade is suitable for the material being cut.
*. The feed rate is suitable for the material being cut.
*. The speed of the saw blade is suitable for the material being cut.
*. The insert adjusting screw and the lock lovers of the blade guide arms are all tightened.
*. Sufficient tension is placed on the saw blade.
*. The wire brush is properly positioned.
*. There is sufficient cutting fluid in good condition.
*. The off-cut length is as required.

4.4 AUTOMATIC OPERATION :
Having finished all the procedures described above in (2) Operating Preparation ,and with the
workpiece to be cut placed in the vise of the machine , but NOT under the saw blade.
(1) Turn the AUTO-MANUAL selector to auto.
(2) Depress the QUICK APPROACH switch to make the saw frame descend quickly to touch the lower
limit position , it will then rise automatically to the freight preset.
(3) Make any necessary adjustments to HEIGHT SELECTOR to ensure that the saw blade clears the
material by 1/2 to 3/4 inch then repeat (2) above to check setting.
(4) Depress BAR FEED FORWARD button until the workpiece touches the bar stop feeler.
(5) Preset the number of cuts required.
(6) Depress the BLADE DRIVE button to start both the saw blade motor and the cutting fluid pump.
The saw frame begins to descend to cut workpiece.
(7) After the required number of cut has been completed, the saw frame will lift to the raised position
and all machine operation will stop.
(8) The machine will automatically stop, when the workpiece is so short that it can no longer be
automatically feed.
4.5 SPECIAL OPERATION :
(1) While you are cutting a workpiece, if the saw blade suddenly jams in the workpiece, depress the
FRAME RAISE button to lift the saw frame immediately.
(2) The saw blade jamming in the workpiece is most likely because of :
a. Slippage occurring between saw blade and drive wheel. Tension placed on the saw blade is not
sufficient.
b. Slippage occurring between drive belt and motor pulley. Tension on drive belt is not sufficient or
belt is worn.
c. Broken teeth on saw blade.
d. Too blunt saw blade.
e. Too fine tooth spacing on saw blade for material being cut.
f. Too fast feed rate for material being cut and blade used.
4.6 BREAK-IN OPERATION:
When a new blade is used , be sure to first break in the blade before using it for extended operation.
Failure to break in the blade will shorten the service lift of the blade ,and result in less than optimum
efficiency. To break in the blade ,proceed as follow :
(1) Reduce the blade speed setting to one half of its normal setting .
(2) Lengthen the time required for cutting to 2-3 times that of normal.
(3) The break-in operation can be considered sufficient if all unusual noises or metallic sounds have
been eliminated. (For instance, to completely break in the blade, a minimum of five complete cuts
of a 200mm (8 ins) diameter work- piece will be required.)
(4) After the break-in operation has been completed, return the blade speed and feed rate to their
normal setting.

AMPLIFYING VALVE
(1.) THE OUTLINESAND HYDRAULIC CIRCUITS:
(2.) SET-UP
A. The hydraulic pressure indicated in line <p> should be kept in constant during the whole stroke
of the lifting cylinder, i.e. Between the very top and bottom position of the swinging saw frame.
we use springs <r> inside of lifting cylinder to balance/compensate the pressure changes (pressure
varies due to saw frame swinging up and down ) in line <p>. above procedures have been done in
our factory before machine dispatched , now for checking test, please dry run the machine by raising
the saw frame to the very top position and push the saw blade drive button, and having the quick
approach rod lifted (limit switch un-touched), then check the hydraulic pressure in line <p> by
reading the pressure gauge at line <p> to see if the pressure readings keep the same during the whole
stroke.
(maximum 1 kg/sq.cm varies allowed) the pressure reading should be as follows:
8 KG/SQ.CM ............250HAS/300HAS MODELS
10 KG/SQ.CM ............360HAS/400HAS/450HAS MODELS
4 -6

B. Re-zeroing knob "a" & "b" on the amplifying valve:
For zeroing knob "a", there is a hydraulic pressure gauge as drawing <S> needed, Please plug it
onto the outlet on the amplifying valve.
Pressure read at line <p> as the primary pressure............pressure <p>
Pressure read at amplifying valve as the secondary pressure………...pressure <s>
The primary pressure should be kept the same reading, and the secondary pressure can be adjusted
by turning knob "b" for cutting pressure settings zeroing knob "a" :
------------------
Dry run the machine as stated in above paragraph,
Turn knob "b" while reading pressure <s>, If there is any pressure can be read, then turn knob "a"
While watching saw frame, if the saw frame shall stand still there without coming down, then there is
the zero position of the knob "a" ( zero feed-rate ), check the " △" mark on the knob "a" to see if
this mark pointing to "0" position. If not, loosen set screw and zeroing it ( Please make sure tighten
the set screw after zeroing ). zeroing knob "b" :
------------------
After zeroing knob "a", turn knob "a" at "5" position, and let the machine running in the same
condition as previous did - dry running. turn knob "b" while reading pressure <s>, If the pressure
reach 5.5 to 6 kg /sq.cm, then loosen the set screw on the knob "b" and have the " △" mark
pointing to "5" position and tighten the set screw.
(3.) OPERATION
Knob "a" is for maximum feed-rate setting:
The smaller the diameter of the material being cut, the higher feed-rate.
The softer the material being cut, the higher feed-rate can be set. And vice-versa.
Knob "b" is for cutting pressure setting:
The tougher the material being cut, the higher cutting pressure needed. For instance, when cutting
thin pipes/tubes, mild carbon steels, Only little pressure needed, and for stainless/high alloy tool
steels or inconel special steels, high cutting pressure should be needed. There are bothAISI/JIS
material codes shown on the control panel, Please refer to it for proper cutting pressure setting.
LIMITATION: The sum of the number set on knob "a" and "b" can not exceed 10.
