& WARNING
For your own safety, read the owner's manual before operating the hand notcher.
This hand notcher is designed and intended for use by properly trained and experienced
personnel only. If you are not familiar with the proper and safe operation of a hand notcher, do
not use until proper training and knowledge has been obtained.
1. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working order.
2. KEEP ALL BODY PARTS AWAY FROM MOVING PARTS. Avoid placing any part of your body
near belts, cutters, gears, etc.
3. DO NOT EXCEED RATED GAUGE CAPACITY on this hand notcher.
4.
KEEP THE WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and work benches invite accidents.
5.
KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors should be kept a safe distance from the work area.
6. MAKE THE WORKSHOP KID PROOF with padlocks, master switches, or by removing starter keys.
7.
DON'T FORCE THE MACHINE. It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
8. USE THE RIGHT MACHINE. Don't force a machine or attachment to do a job for which it was not
designed.
9. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other
jewelry which may get caught in moving parts. Non-slip footwear is recommended. Wear protective
hair covering to contain long hair.
10. ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also use face or dust masks if the cutting operation is dusty.
Everyday eyeglasses only have impact resistant lenses; they are not safety glasses.
11. DON'T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
12. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp and clean for the best and safest performance.
Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.
13. NEVER STAND ON A MACHINE. Serious injury could occur if the machine tipped.
14. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the machine, a guard or other part that is
damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its
intended function - check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts,
mounting, and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is
damaged should be properly repaired or replaced.
15. SHEET METAL STOCK HAS SHARP EDGES. To prevent cuts, use caution when handling.
16. KEEP HANDS AND FINGERS clear of the area in front and rear of the hand notcher.
17. DO NOT USE THE MACHINE for any purpose other than for which it was designed
18. FAILURE TO COMPLY with all of these warnings may cause serious injury.
19. SOME DUST CREATED BY power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction
activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:
Lead from lead based paint
crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
20. YOUR RISK FROM THOSE EXPOSURES varies, depending on how often you do this type of work.
To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved
safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specifically designed to filter out microscopic
particles
21. DO NOT OPERATE TOOL while under the influence of drugs, alcohol or any medication.

corner of inside out. Align blades at the point
flush and tighten screws.
In the piercing
capacity the notchers capacity is reduced to 18
gauge mild steel.
Uncrating and Clean-Up
1. Remove the HN-16N from the crate.
2. Carefully clean all rust protected surfaces
with a mild solvent or kerosene and a soft
rag. Do not use lacquer thinner, paint
thinner, or gasoline. These will damage
painted surfaces.
Depth of Cut
Adjust set screw (3-08) to stop the ram at a
desired depth and tighten hex nut (3-07).
Ram Brake
3. Lubricate all moving parts of the machine
with light grease, or heavy oil.
The set screw (3-04) acts as a drag on the
ram so that the blade does not free fall. The
screw should be checked and adjusted as
needed
4. Carefully move the machine to a well lighted
area and attach to a solid, level work bench.
Notcher
Setup
."
Opening Throat
Use a machinist's level and shims if the
notcher is not level. The notcher has been
adjusted at the factory for proper use of capacity
material.
During shipment of this unit the
machine may have come out of alignment.
The notchers throat can be opened by
removing hex socket cap screw (1-08). This will
allow squaring, or shearing. Always replace
screw when notching.
Blade Adjustment
Slitting
The (#) in the text refers to the breakdown.
Remove the upper left blade (4-02) and
mount the right blade in the splay position, and
open the throat. Always replace screw (1-08)
when notching.
1. Remove the table (8-01) and position the
ram (3-01) to its lowest position.
2. Slightly loosen socket head cap screws (503).
3.
Ram Adjustment
Normal wear on the ram (3-01) may require
adjustment. Loosen set screws (3-04) and
evenly tighten the hex socket cap screws (3-03)
until the ram is snug. Tighten set screws from
side to side until the ram has a proper fit.
Lubricate the ways.
Use the set screw (7-02) to adjust the
positioning block (7-01). The blade gap
should be approximately 0.002". As a
general rule the blade gap should be
approximately 6% of stock thickness.
4. Tighten screws (5-03).
Lubrication
Blades
Lubricate the ways weekly, and lightly oil
machined surfaces to prevent rust. lubricate
daily oil pinholes that are located on the
eccentric bushing (2-02), and top of the ram (301).
The upper blades (4-01 & 4-02) are factory
set for "splay" cutting. This method provides
that the cut begins at the outside of the material.
The capacity at this setting is 16 gauge. The
notcher is also capable of piercing.
To
accomplish this, interchange upper blades end
for end so that the cut begins at the apex or
