(Installation Guides of: TigerStop, TigerFence, TigerFence SLR, TigerCrossCut, TigerTurbo, TigerRack and Heavy Duty2) FOUR IMPORTANT CAUTIONS: 1. Do not randomly drill and tap holes in the TigerStop fence beam for mounting or for any other purpose. This might damage the drive system. All fastening or attachment to the fence beam MUST be made by inserting T-bolts or T-nuts WITH washers! 2. It is CRITICAL - especially if NOT using TigerStop attachment brackets (UBR), that if T-nuts are used, the bolts are prevented from tightening through them and into the aluminum fence beam. Again, it is imperative that washers be used. 3. Uneven tightening of the bolts used to fasten down TigerStop to its mounting support can introduce a slight twist or other deformation in the beam. This will result in inaccurate measurement and premature failure of the drive belt or other components. 4. The motor box (compartment) contains DC voltage with potentially FATAL amperage. NEVER attempt any unauthorized actions inside the motor box.

Power requirements are 120vac @ 4A, 50Hz-60Hz • Each new TigerCrossCut is supplied with an internal line filter. Four Important Cautions 1. Do not randomly drill and tap holes in the TigerCrossCut fence beam. This might damage the drive system. All fastening or attachment to the fence beam MUST be made by inserting supplied TigerCrossCut hardware WITH washers! 2. It is CRITICAL that if T-nuts are used to mount TigerCrossCut, the bolts are prevented from tightening through them and into the aluminum fence beam. Again, it is imperative that washers be used! 3. Uneven tightening of the bolts used to fasten down TigerCrossCut to its mounting support can introduce a slight twist or other deformation in the beam. This will result in inaccurate measurement and premature failure of the drive components. 4. The motor box compartment contains DC voltage with potentially FATAL amperage. NEVER attempt any unauthorized actions inside the motor box! TigerStop must be installed in accordance with all local, state, and federal regulations, as well as common sense safety requirements. Use only trained professionals when installing TigerStop with existing equipment to ensure a safe and proper work station that will in no way endanger the operator or any other personnel. Do not operate TigerStop without proper training, both in TigerStop operation, and in the operation of adjoining equipment. Before Installation 1. Turn off all power to your saw and remove the power cord from the wall socket. 2. Lock the sliding bed so that it cannot move during installation. 3. Remove the existing crosscut guide. 4. Make sure the mounting surface is smooth and clean. Nothing should prevent a tight fit. 5. Unpack TigerCrossCut and ensure you have all the items listed on the check off sheet on the inside cover. 2 Assemble Controller Stand Description and Use The TigerCrossCut control stand is the bracket used for mounting the controller to the bottom of the TigerCrossCut fence beam or to another support structure. Parts List Control Stand Top x1 Top Mount x1 Bottom Mount x1 Control Stand Bottom x1 Socket Head Cap Screw x2 Tools Required Spacer x1 13mm Wrench 1 Through Bolt x3 5mm Hex Wrench Flange Nut x3 3 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 4 Install Control Stand to TigerCrossCut 1. Remove TigerCrossCut from the package and lay it face down on the saw table. 2. Mount the controller stand to the T-slot on the bottom of TigerCrossCut. Mount TigerCrossCut to the slider 1.Position the fence beam so the end closest to the saw blade is about 3 inches from the right end of the sliding arm. The motor end will hang over the edge at the other end and must be supported. Note: Until the fence beam is secured to the slider, have an assistant support the motor end of the machine while positioning it. If not supported, TigerCrossCut could tip over and fall off the table. 2.TigerCrossCut is mounted to the slider using the same two holes that were used to secure the previous crosscut guide. Note: Some sliders have washers on each hole to space the existing crosscut guide. You can use these when installing TigerCrossCut. Mounting to sliders WITHOUT eccentric peg squaring adjustment 3.If your slider does not use an eccentric peg shown in the picture to the left, it will simply have two holes to attach the fence. TigerCrossCut is mounted using these two holes. If your slider does have an eccentric peg, skip to the next section. 4. With TigerCrossCut still lying on the slider, insert one T-bolt from the TCC nut pack (fig. 1) into the Top channel of the fence beam at each end. Line up each T-bolt with the existing holes on the slider. 5. Thread an alignment cone from the TCC nut pack (fig. 2) on to each T-bolt and hand tighten. 5 Note: TigerStop provides two alignment cone sizes in the TCC nut pack: 15mm and 20mm diameter. Select the size that best fits the holes in the slider. For unique hole sizes, modifications may be necessary. Fig. 1 Fig. 2 6.Insert and tighten down the wood block shown on the left. The block has a mounting plate that slides into the slots in the front of the TigerCrossCut beam extrusion. Slide the block into position. 7.Tighten the set screws that hold the block on TigerCrossCut. Note: The block will protrude past the saw blade slightly. It will be cut once the TigerCrossCut has been squared. 8. Pivot the fence beam into working position. The alignment cones should fall into the mounting holes. 9. Using a flat head screwdriver, tighten the alignment cone to the slider. 6 10.Insert the threaded rod from the TCC nut pack (fig. 1) into the alignment cone. Then thread the circular handle onto the threaded rod. 11. Check for squareness. When TigerCrossCut is square to your saw blade, tighten down the circular handles. Mounting to sliders WITH eccentric peg squaring adjustment 3.Sliders with an eccentric peg will generally have two holes for attachment as shown. If no holes exist on your slider, you may need to modify the existing sliding table. 4. With TigerCrossCut still lying on the slider, insert one T-bolt from the attachment nut pack (fig. 1) into the top channel of the fence beam at each end. Line up each T-bolt with the existing holes on the slider. 5. Thread an alignment cone from the TCC nut pack (fig. 2) on to each T-bolt and hand tighten. Note: TigerStop provides two alignment cone sizes: 15mm and 20mm diameter. Select the size that best fits the holes in the slider. For unique hole sizes, modifications may be necessary. 7 Fig. 1 Fig. 2 6. Slide the pictured T-nut from the TCC nut pack into the top channel of the TigerCrossCut beam. Align the T-nut with the eccentric peg. Once aligned, tighten the set screws on the T-nut. 7.Insert and tighten down the wood block shown on the left. The block has a mounting plate that slides into the slots in the front of the TigerCrossCut beam extrusion. Slide the block into position. 8.Tighten the set screws that hold the block on TigerCrossCut. Note: The block will protrude past the saw blade slightly. It will be cut once the TigerCrossCut has been squared. 8 9.Rotate the TigerCrosscut in to position. Ensure the alignment cones slide into the holes and ensure the T-nut mates with the eccentric peg. 10.Insert the threaded rod from the TCC nut pack (fig. 1) into the alignment cone. Then thread the circular handle onto the threaded rod. 11. Check for squareness. If TigerCrossCut is square to your saw blade, tighten down the circular handles. If TigerCrossCut is not square, adjust the eccentric peg until TigerCrossCut is square and retighten. 9 Install the extension arm The second stop is mounted on an extension arm that is attached to stop 1. This allows TigerCrossCut to measure distances of up to 120 inches. 1.Lay the extension arm on top of stop 1. Thread the locking handle into the threaded hole on stop 1. 2.Lay the other end of the extension arm into the TigerCrossCut extension arm guide. Plug in Controller and Power 1. Plug the TigerCrossCut controller into the motor box using the controller cable. Note: The TigerCrossCut controller cable is a proprietary cable. DO NOT use an “off the shelf” cable. Doing so can cause damage to TigerCrossCut. 10 2. Plug the power cable from the TigerCrossCut motor box to a power outlet. Note: TigerCrossCut requires an isolated circuit. Power requirements are 120vac @ 4A, 50Hz-60Hz. Install the Pulley Cover The pulley cover is shipped in the TigerCrossCut accessory box.
