WHAT YOU NEED 

Tools:Security Torx Key SetPen

Safety Equipment:Standard Personal Protective Equipment

  1. Start a rehoming cycle then press the red STOP button on the operator console when the follower is roughly half a metre away from the end of its travel close to the saw.
  2. Isolate the saw electrically.
  3. Remove the rear side guard from the infeed feeder.

  4. From the rear of the infeed feeder, use a pen to operate the manual override button for the follower paddle air supply valve (marked "FOL") on the valve bank multiple times and observe the actuation of the paddle.

    Note: this should actuate with roughly a 1-second rise and fall time.

  5. If too fast or too slow, adjust the restrictors until the desired actuation speed is observed.
  6. Refit the rear side guard on the infeed feeder.
  7. Turn on the electrical isolation switch on the front of the saw.
