4. Calibration Procedure

NOTE
The Manual Control Screen is referenced throughout this section.
Please see Figure 26 when this screen in referenced.
4.1

Turn Off Power

Step 1 – Turn off the blade motor and the conveyor
Step 2 – Open the saw cabinet door
Step 3 – Shut down the computer
Step 4 – Disconnect electricity and air supply.
Step 5 – Lock and tag out the electrical and
air supply in accordance with OSHA
procedures (i.e. OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147).
4.2

L1/L2 Belt Feeder Alignment

CAUTION
!
Misaligned belt feeders will cause cutting errors and
rapid belt wear.
Step 1 – Use a straight edge (aluminum bar is
recommended) on the belt and against the back fence,
as shown in Figure 56. There should be no more than
0.010" (.25mm) gap between the straight edge and back
fence rollers or belt.

Step 2 – Place the straight edge on the side plates,
as shown in Figure 57. Ensure the straight edge has
no more than a .010" (.25mm) gap between both side
plates.
Step 3 – With the straight edge on both side plates (or
using a level), insure both L1 and L2 feeders are level.
This is shown in Figure 57.

4.3 Infeed & Outfeed
Conveyor Alignment
The fence of the infeed conveyor, L1 drive, and L2 drive
must be aligned to ensure proper transfer of lumber
from the L1 drive to the L2 drive.
Using a string line or machined lumber (dimensional
lumber is not adequately straight for this measurement).
Measure the distance between the fence of the L1/L2
drives and the fence on the outfeed conveyor. If the
distance is no more than 1" behind the L2 drive fence,
proceed to the next section.
If the distance is greater than 1" behind the L2
drive fence, adjustment is required, contact Alpine
Equipment Customer Service for assistance
completing this procedure.
