Clean Up The unpainted surfaces are coated with a waxy oil to prevent corrosion during shipment. Remove this protective coating with a solvent cleaner or degreaser. For thorough cleaning, some parts must be removed. For optimum performance, clean all moving parts or sliding contact surfaces. Avoid chlorine-based solvents, such as acetone or brake parts cleaner that may damage painted surfaces. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions when using any type of cleaning product.
Mounting Workbench Mounting The Model G0682 can be used without the included stand. If you choose to mount the machine to a workbench, use one of the methods described below. The strongest mounting option is a "Through Mount" where holes are drilled all the way through the workbench, and hex bolts, washers, and hex nuts are used to secure the drill press to the workbench. Bolt Flat Washer Bolting to Concrete Floors Although not required, we recommend that you mount your new machine to the floor.
Once the stand is assembled (see Assembly) it is ready to be mounted to the shop floor. To mount the stand to the floor: 1. Drill four holes in the inner lip at the bottom of the stand in the approximate locations shown in Figure 9. Be sure the holes are large enough for the anchor method you choose. Assembly Assembly consists of assembling the stand (if necessary), mounting the machine, and attaching the handle, support roller, and work stop. To assemble the machine: 1.
3. Attach the rear panel to the stand with the remaining hex bolts, nuts, and (12) 8mm flat washers. Note: If you plan to mount your machine stand to the floor, do so now (see Mounting to Shop Floor on Page 14), then return to Step 4, below, to mount the machine to the stand. Otherwise, continue with Step 4, below. 6. Connect the handle switch plug to the control box by aligning the plug with the socket, then threading the lock collar (Figure 14). Switch Plug Socket 4.
8. Attach the work stop rod by sliding it into the hole in the side of the vise base and using the set screw to secure it in place, as shown in Figure 16. Set Screw Work Stop Rod Power Connection After you have completed all previous setup instructions and circuit requirements, the machine is ready to be connected to the power supply. To avoid unexpected startups or property damage, use the following steps whenever connecting or disconnecting the machine. Connecting Power 1.
Test Run Once the assembly is complete, test run your machine to make sure it runs properly. If, during the test run, you cannot easily locate the source of an unusual noise or vibration, stop using the machine immediately, then review the Troubleshooting on Page 35. If you still cannot remedy a problem, contact our Tech Support at (570) 546-9663 for assistance. To test run the machine: 1. Make sure you have read the safety instructions at the beginning of the manual and that the machine is set up properly.
SECTION 4: OPERATIONS Basic Controls Damage to your eyes and lungs could result from using this machine without proper protective gear. Always wear safety glasses and a respirator when operating this machine. Use the descriptions and figures below to become familiar with the basic controls of your machine. ON/OFF Switch: Turns main power to the machine ON/OFF. Power Indicator Light: Glows green when machine is turned ON. High/Low Speed Switch: Selects the high (84 RPM) or low (42 RPM) blade speed.
Saw Handler: workpiece. Lowers the saw into the Trigger Switch: Turns the motor ON, spinning the blade and activating the cutting fluid pump. Miter Lock Lever: Releases or locks the rotation of the saw base for angled cuts. Work Stop: Set at a particular distance from the blade to produce multiple same-length cuts. Cutting Angle To set the cutting angle: 1. DISCONNECT SAW FROM POWER! 2. Move the miter lock lever to the left to release the saw pivot (Figure 24).
Vise Adjustable Vise Jaw The vise jaw on the Model G0682 can be adjusted for maximum support while still providing clearance at a variety of cutting angles. The Model G0682 also features an auxiliary stability bracket for additional support during cutting procedures. —If the saw blade hits the auxiliary stability bracket, see Auxiliary Stability Bracket on Page 22. 4. Loosen the cap screw until the jaw slides freely (Figure 26).
Auxiliary Stability Bracket Vise Quick Release Lever The auxiliary stability bracket can be placed in two positions. Depending on the angle of the cut, the bracket may have to be moved to provide adequate clearance for the blade. For repetitive cutting procedures that require frequent clamping and un-clamping of the same size stock, the Model G0682 is equipped with a quick release lever that allows the workpiece to be released, repositioned, then quickly re-clamped.
5. Rotate the quick release lever counterclockwise to clamp the workpiece. Between cuts, rotate the lever clockwise to release the workpiece, then counterclockwise again to re-clamp it (Figure 31). Work Stop Hex Bolt Released Figure 32. Work stop adjustment. 3. Lower the blade as far as it will go. Clamped Figure 31. Quick release lever positions. Note: An alternative method for using the quick release lever is to rotate the lever downward prior to clamping the workpiece.
Cutting Fluid Filling Cutting Fluid Reservoir 1. DISCONNECT SAW FROM POWER! 2. Remove the cap screws and washers from the cutting fluid reservoir (Figure 34). Cap Screws Used cutting fluid is a poison hazard. Use personal protection when handling this material. Failure to do so may result in illness or death. Draining/Cleaning Reservoir Cutting Fluid 1. DISCONNECT SAW FROM POWER! 2.
Blade Terminology Blade Pitch Selecting the right blade for the cut requires an understanding of various blade characteristics. The most important consideration when selecting a blade for the Model G0682 is blade pitch, which is typically measured in "teeth per inch" (TPI). Proper TPI for any cut depends on the crosssection size and wall thickness of the workpiece. Blade Terminology B D C F A If the blade pitch is too coarse for the cut, there will be too few teeth making the cut at any given time.
Similarly, if the workpiece is a soft metal such as aluminum, each tooth will remove more material and rapidly fill the blade gullet. For this reason, use a blade with fewer TPI on soft metals. An additional problem with an overly fine-pitched blade is that the pressure each tooth exerts on the workpiece is reduced. This limits the cutting ability of the teeth and also results in a buildup of heat and inefficient cuts.
Blade Break-in Blade Changes Proper break-in is important for the cutting performance and longevity of the blade. During the break-in period, only mild pressure should be exerted on the blade (about half of the normal feed pressure for a properly broken-in blade). The duration of the break-in period is determined by the hardness of the material cut. The breakin period is defined in terms of square inches of material cut.
3. Rotate the blade guard and linkage out of the way, as shown in Figure 43. 6. Place the blade flange on the new blade, as shown in Figure 45. Blade Guard Blade Flange Linkage Blade Figure 43. Exposing blade. Figure 45. Installing new blade. 4. Remove the arbor cap screw. It has left-hand threads and loosens when turned clockwise (see Figure 43). 7. Place the blade and flange over the arbor, then thread and tighten the left-hand thread arbor cap screw (Figure 46). 5.

Cutting Procedures Cutting Tips After familiarizing yourself with the controls of the Model G0682, follow the basic outline below to perform safe and efficient cuts. • Replace, sharpen, and clean blades as necessary to maintain optimum cutting performance. To make a cut: • Use even pressure while cutting. Heavy or irregular pressure can lead to poor cuts and may damage the blade. 1. DISCONNECT SAW FROM POWER! 2. Set the cutting angle (Page 20). 3. Check the vise blade clearance (Page 21).
