'''To start'''
The panel saw is a circular saw mounted to a mechanical gantry allows it to travel smoothly in a vertical path over a frame designed to hold large flat sheets. Sheets are held in the frame while the saw is drawn down to make a cross cut.  Alternatively, the saw can be rotated to make a horizontal, or "rip" cut.  For rip cutting, the saw is fixed in place and sheets are fed through the machine, supported on rollers.
 
1. Disengage the E-STOP button (left, bottom)


2.  Turn the switch (right,bottom) to the desired direction.  ''Forward is 99% of the useful cases''
==Use For==


3. The spindle speed can be adjusted with the small black knob top right.
* Sheet lumber


'''To Stop'''
* Plywood


1.  Turn the three-position switch (bottom, right) to OFF.
* Fiberboard


2.  Alternatively, push the E-STOP button.
==Do Not Use For==


'''NOTE:''' The Dake speed control knob adjusts the speed over a moderate range. To make large changes to the spindle speed:
* Boards or scraps narrower than the carriage.


1.  Unplug the drill press
* Logs, carvings, or other irregular lumber


2.  Open the belt/pulley cover
* Pressure-treated


3.  Loosen the belt-tensioning lock handle on the right side just in front of the motor.
* Wet lumber
 
4.  Check the table of belt and pulley configurations.  In the metal shop a hardcopy of the table is attached to the speed control box.  You can also look at p. 15 of the [https://drive.google.com/file/d/14J0h45qFgf-qJkPHPmnZNXctXAPnbJkK/view?usp=drive_link Dake SB-32V manual].
 
5.  Reconfigure the belts as desired.
 
6.  Tension the belts by pushing the motor back and tightening the lock handle.
