10M14-G MECHANICAL SHEAR
The ROPER WHITNEY 10M14-G mechanical shear is designed and tested to handle 14
gauge mild steel in 10-foot widths. The power drive is through a mechanical linkage with a 5HP
motor brake and gear reducer. The cutting action can be set for single cycle or continuous cycle
by means of a front mounted switch on the control box. All cutting is operator controlled by
use of a foot-switch. The motor only operates when the foot-switch is actuated, thus reducing
continuous electrical power drain in comparison to an "always on" running motor. The
10M14-G shear runs very quiet as a result of this motor actuation system. The shear blades are
two edged, and upper and lower blades are interchangeable. The shear comes standard with a
manual style backgauge that is offered either as a front or rear operated type gauging system.
Several optional features that are available include:
1.) full-length light beam
2.) front extension arms with drop stops
3.) front gauge bar to fit onto the front extension arms
4.) side squaring extension gauges in four foot increments up to 12-feet,
with optional flip-type stops
5.) material support and cut-off return mechanism to the front of the shear
6.) DRO (digital read-out) powered backgauge
7.) NC (numerical controlled) programmable powered backgauge
The 10M14-G shear is ready for use upon uncrating -- no adjustments are required. All
load bearings are steel-backed, lead impregnated, and self lubricating to provide rigid structural
support, low maintenance and a long life. Overall the shear construction is of state-of-the-art
heavy plate weldments that are machined with precision requirements to eliminate any need for
adjustment upon its initial set-up and use. Blade clearance is factory set and adjustment, through
the use of adjustment screws, is provided in the case of blade sharpening or blade replacement.
The following diagram shows the mechanical linkage as driven by the motor/brake gearbox:

Figure 3b (page 8) : Electrical wiring diagram
The following are the specifications:
1. Capacity 14 Ga. mild steel
18 Ga. stainless steel (*)
2. Shear width 0-121.25 inches
3. Shear depth 0-24 inches
4. Table depth 15 inches
5. Motor HP 5 HP at 1700 RPM
6. Cycle rate 32 stroke per minute
7. Standard voltages 208/230/460 VAC, 3 PHASE, 60 HZ
8. Approximate weight 5500 lb.
* Roper Whitney of Rockford, Inc. recommends the use of high carbon/high
chrome blades for shearing stainless steel in production quantities. Note, that these
high carbon/high chrome blades are standard on all 10M14 shears.

SAFETY RULES --- 10M14-G SHEAR
1. WARNING:
Electrical Danger -- Misuse or improper installation of machinery connected to a
source of electricity may result in accidental shock that could cause injury or death.
Installation must conform to National Electric Code (Article 250 - Grounding, etc.)
Electrical connections must be made by a trained and qualified electrician.
Electrical characteristics shown on motor plate and control panel must match the
power source; and all electrically powered equipment must be grounded.
2. WARNING:
Mechanical Danger -- Do no adjust the holddown; it is factory set for 3/16 inch
gap and acts as the hand-guard. Do not exceed the work-piece material capacity --
otherwise serious damage will occur with your shear.
3. Machine to be operated by authorized personnel who have been trained by their
supervisor with the working and safety features of the machine, and by reading and
understanding the Operator's Manual.
4. Do not operate shear without reading this Operator's Manual and without proper
supervisory instructions.
5. Perform all installation and set-up operations before applying power for
electrical start-up.
6. Never operate machine with any guard removed; i.e., all required guarding to be
installed and effective.
7. Never leave machine on or running unattended. When not in use, turn off all
electrical power.
8. Never adjust machine with power on.
9. Avoid accidental start-up.
