•
Perform complete shear operations only. Partial
shear cuts may jam the drop off side of the
frame and could result in breakage andoperator
injury.
•
Do not shear angle smaller than the hold-down
will accommodate.
9.2.1 Bar Shear Operation
Referring to Figures 13:
1.
Clear shear station of any tools or debris prior
to powering the machine on.
2.
Turn machine on.
3.
Press the foot pedal to extend the cylinder to
raise the angle shear blade.
4.
Mark the material for the length needed.
Example: 10” length wanted. Marked at 13” for
alignment.
Figure 13
5.
Place bar stock into the material hold-down and
position your cut mark adjacent to the front
surface of the hold down. (Fig. 13, A)
6.
Use a square as needed to square the material
to be cut.
7.
Use one or two drops of SAE#30 oil at the shear
blade slides and between the blades to extend
the life of the blades.
8.
Hold the workpiece firmly, keeping your hands
a safe distance away from the working area. Do
not stand directly behind the workpiece during
the shearing operation, but off to one side.
Once safely positioned, use your foot to press
and hold the cylinder retract pedal. Maintain
pressure until the workpiece has been sheared.
9.
When the cut is complete, release the retract
foot pedal and press the extend foot pedal to
open the shear station for the next cut.
9.2.2 Angle Shear Operation
Referring to Figures 14 – 15:
1.
Clear shear station of any tools or debris prior
to powering the machine on.
2.
Turn machine on.
3.
Press the foot pedal to extend the cylinder to
raise the angle shear blade.
4.
Mark the material for the length needed.
Example: 10” length wanted (Fig. 14, A).
Marked at 13” for alignment (Fig. 14, B)
Figure 14
5.
Place angle iron into the material hold-down
and position your cut mark adjacent to the front
surface of the hold down. (Fig. 15, C)
Figure 15
6.
Hold the material perpendicular to the shear
guard and adjust the material hold-down hand
screw to lightly contact the material and prevent
the material from lifting during the actual
shearing process.
7.
Use one or two drops of SAE#30 oil at the shear
blade slides and between the blades to extend
the life of the blades.
8.
Clear your hands away from guards indicating
possible pinch points, securely hold material,
press the foot cylinder retract pedal to activate
the shear station. If material is long, use a
material stand for support.
9.
When the cut is complete, release the retract
foot pedal and press the extend foot pedal to
open the shear station for the next cut.
