Clamping Irregular Workpieces

Instruction Manual
Adjust the back stop of the quick-clamping device to align the
centre of the workpiece beneath the centre of the cut-off wheel:
Loosen the back stop.
Insert the workpiece and adjust the back stop.
Tighten the back stop.
If you also need to adjust the quick-clamping device, place it
parallel to the back stop and tighten it.
Irregular workpieces without plane clamping surfaces must be
clamped using special clamping tools, as the workpieces must not
move during the cutting. This could result in damage to the cut-
off wheel or to the sample itself. Use the T-slots to mount the
special clamping tools. Struers offers a kit of Clamping Tools (See
Accessories).
To achieve faster cutting, position the workpiece so that the wheel
will cut the smallest possible cross-section.
If cutting is temporarily stopped by pressing STOP
wheel moves up to the position from which cutting was started
(the cut-off wheel does not, however, retract when Unitom-50 is in
STAY function). To continue from the position at which the
cutting was stopped, press F1: Continue in the CUTTING menu:
After pressing F1: Continue, the cut-off wheel quickly moves down
to the position at which the cutting was stopped, and starts
cutting at the pre-set feed speed.
If the protection guard has been opened before using the continue
function, a message appears, reminding you that the workpiece
may have been moved and the cut-off wheel may have been
changed.
