Installation, Operation, and Care of MODEL 6614 MEAT SAW SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS GENERAL The 6614 Meat Saw is rugged, durable, and easy to clean. The saw is equipped with a water resistant 3 HP electric motor and direct gear drive transmission that provides a blade speed of 3500 feet per minute. The carriage (Fig.1) has stainless steel ball bearings providing easy travel and dependability. The shaped front edge of the carriage is comfortable to the operator's body even when leaned on during movement.
INSTALLATION UNPACKING AND ASSEMBLY Immediately after unpacking the meat saw, check for possible shipping damage. If the meat saw is found to be damaged, save the packaging material and contact the carrier within 15 days of delivery. Prior to installation, test the electrical service to make sure it agrees with the specifications on the machine data plate located on the column. Packed in a packet attached to the table compartment are the pusher plate and the gauge plate handle.
UPPER PULLEY COVER (Stainless Steel) The stainless steel upper pulley cover (Fig. 5) should be installed on the two hinge pins of the stainless steel upper pulley baffle and securely latched during saw use. To remove the stainless steel upper pulley cover for cleaning, unlatch and open the stainless steel upper pulley cover; then, lift straight up off the hinge pins. LOWER COVER (Scrap Pan) During use, the lower cover (Fig.
LOWER PULLEY The lower pulley is assembled on the lower pulley shaft. The latch on the lower pulley should be seated in the groove of the pulley shaft (Fig. 7). The lower pulley can be removed after the blade has first been loosened and removed and the lower pulley latch is moved out of the groove of the lower pulley shaft. UPPER PULLEY The upper pulley is assembled on the upper pulley shaft. The round retainer on the upper pulley shaft should be positioned out-of-center when latched (Fig. 8).
SCRAP TRAY During use, the scrap tray should be installed between the left-hand table and the carriage support (Fig. 9). The scrap tray slides into place, resting on the frame between the carriage support and table. The angled side of the scrap tray is located nearest the blade. SCRAP TRAY PL-41499-1 Fig. 9 CARRIAGE In use, the carriage can roll back and forth between the left carriage stop (Fig. 10) and the right carriage stop, assuming the spring loaded carriage lock (Fig.
LOWER BLADE GUIDE The lower blade guide assembly fits in the lower guide holder (Fig. 12). The blade fits in the slots of both the steel saw blade guide and the plastic guide.

The steel saw blade guide is available in various widths depending on the blade being used.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS WARNING: ELECTRICAL AND GROUNDING CONNECTIONS MUST COMPLY WITH THE APPLICABLE PORTIONS OF THE NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE AND/OR OTHER LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES.

OPERATION SAFETY DEVICES INCORPORATED IN THIS SAW MUST BE IN THEIR CORRECT OPERATING POSITIONS ANYTIME THE SAW IS IN USE. SAFETY FEATURES Upper Guide and Guard Assembly Before turning the saw on, raise or lower the upper guide and guard assembly by grasping the hand knob and sliding up or down so the cutting zone is only as high as necessary for the piece being cut. Doors, Covers, and Guards All doors, covers, and guards must be in their operating position (closed) while the machine is running.
GAUGE PLATE When making several cuts of the same thickness (or when using the pusher plate), set the gauge plate as desired (Fig. 14) by pushing the lock lever and sliding the gauge plate to the thickness you want. A reference scale on the table indicates the thickness of cut. If the gauge plate is not needed, you may release the lock lever and move the gauge plate to the rear; or raise the gauge plate to a vertical position to keep it out of the way.
CLEANING AND SANITIZING WARNING: DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL POWER AND PLACE A TAG AT THE DISCONNECT SWITCH INDICATING THE CIRCUIT IS BEING WORKED ON BEFORE CLEANING THIS MACHINE. The saw must be thoroughly cleaned and sanitized: Before first use; After each day's operation; Anytime it is not to be used for an extended period of time; or Before being put into operation after an extended downtime.
MAINTENANCE WARNING: DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY AND PLACE A TAG AT THE DISCONNECT SWITCH INDICATING THE CIRCUIT IS BEING WORKED ON. LUBRICATION The motor has permanently lubricated ball bearings and requires no additional lubrication. The slide bar for the upper guide and guard assembly also requires no lubrication. After cleaning, apply a small amount of mineral oil to the six ball bearing rollers underneath the carriage, to the gauge plate slide rod, and to the pulley shafts.
