Frequently Answers and Questions

What are the circuit requirements for the Model G0501?

The Model G0501 is prewired for 220V 3-phase operation. It has a 10 HP main motor and a 1 HP scoring motor. You should install the machine on a dedicated 30 Amp, 3 Pole circuit breaker. For 220V 3-phase operation, use a 3-wire cord.

How do I adjust the sliding table to be parallel with the saw blade?

You will need to loosen the cap screws securing the sliding table to the base, but leave the screw securing the center of the sliding table finger-tight. Then you can make a mark near the edge of the blade at position A (Figure 8) using a felt tip pen. Using an adjustable square or a dial indicator, measure the distance (A) between the T-slot and the front of the blade as shown in Figure 8. Then rotate the blade 180˚ and slide the table with the measuring device to position B. Measure the difference between the two positions. If the difference was less than 0.004" then the blade parallelism is correct. If the difference was greater than 0.004", then the sliding table needs to be adjusted. Using the adjustable square or dial indicator, watch the gap measurement and have your assistant slowly make the adjustments at the parallel adjustment bolts (Figure 9) until the gap size is equal on both sides. Repeat Step 7 until the gap between the blade and the edge of the sliding table is less than 0.004" at both ends. Tighten the jam nuts on the parallel adjustment bolts to secure them in place. Then tighten the three large cap screws that secure the sliding table to the base.

What is kickback and how can I prevent it?

Kickback is an event in which the workpiece is propelled back towards the operator at a high rate of speed. To prevent kickback, make sure the riving knife is always aligned with the blade, feed cuts through to completion, and never attempt freehand cuts. Always use the rip fence or crosscut fence to support the workpiece. Always use the blade guard and riving knife on all 'through-sawing' operations.
