Welder Features
(Refer to Figure 3)
The welder is installed on the left side of the saw
frame. A blade cutter, provided with the welder, is
mounted on the saw frame near the panel.
The welder has two clamps that are used to clamp
and hold the ends of the saw blade during welding.
The welder controls include a clamp pressure selec-
tor, welding and annealing pushbutton switches, and
switches for the blade grinder and welder light.

WARNING: BE SURE TO WEAR EYE PROTEC-
TION WHILE OPERATINGTHE WELDER TO
AVOID EYE INJURIES. USE CARE WHEN HAN-
DLINGTHE BLADE AFTER WELDING TO AVOID
BURNS.
1. Usingthe blade cutter,cut the blade to the
required length (View A).
2. Usingthe blade grinder, square-offthe blade
ends (View B). The blade ends need to be
perpendicularto the side of the blade.
The blade ends must be square so there is
minimal gap betweenthe ends when clamped f
or welding.
3. Insert one end of the blade in the left clamp (View
C). Positionthe back edge of the blade against
the back of the left clamp. Then position the end
of the blade midway betweenthe left and right
clamps. Tighten the leftclamp.
4. Insertthe other end of the blade in the right
clamp. Positionthe back edge of the blade
against the back of the right clamp. Then buttthe
end of the blade up againstthe other end of the
blade (the blade ends need to be in contact with
each other). Tighten the right clamp.
5. Set the clamp pressure selector switch (clock-
wise rotation)to the setting required for the width
of the blade being welded (seethe table on the
nextpage).
NOTE: There will be some resistance when
turning the switch.
