SECTION 6: OPERATIONS
Conveyor Controls
The Model G0504 features an infeed conveyor
and a return conveyor. The speed and engage
-
ment controls of the conveyors are controlled by
the conveyor control lever. The farther the control
lever is pushed forward, the faster the conveyors
will move.
To operate the infeed conveyor:
1. Read the subsection titled “Control Panel”
on Page 14 to become familiar with the con-
trol panel functions.
2. With the saw running, push the infeed con-
veyor engagement lever (
Figure 22) foward
to engage the conveyor belts. Push the lever
farther foward to make the conveyors run
faster, or pull the lever backwards to make
the conveyors run slower. Pull the lever all
the way back to stop the conveyors.
