The control piston plunger is being moved by the foot pe-
dal and the cam arrangement on the linkage, At the same
time (at the very beginning of the foot pedal movement) a
limit switch is being employed to open the conical valve.
The sequence is es follows:
The cam from the foot pedal linkage is pushing the slide
piston inwards who in turn will more or less reduce the
otherwise free oil flow from Pl. The oil now is being for-

Ball type and conical type valve solenoids:


On POLARs type 92/115/155 one ball type valve solenoid
is installed in oil circulation P2 and one.conical type valve,
solenoid in oil circulation of PI within the hydraulic con-
trol block.
Pushing the 2 cut buttons will first open up the conical
valve in line Pl to let the oil flow pass tb the hydraulic cy-
linder which in turn is bringing the clamp down.
In the full down position of the clamp the aforementioned
conical valve will close and therefore hold the clamp in this
locked position until the knife cycle has been completed
and the knife has reached the top position. Briefly the co-
nical type valve solenoid will open up now and the clamp
of ball type valve in P2 will become closed when both cut
buttons are depressed and the oil circulation of P2 iS
blocked.
The cutting cycle can only start if the ball type valve within

ment or correction is done in the same manner as described
under chapter relieve valve safety pressure.

Clamp pressure adjusting valve:


The clamp pressure adjusting valve - actually end adjust-
able ielieve valve - is connected into the Pl oil circulation
line. The clamping pressure adjustment is done by a foot
pedal on which a read out scale is attached to.

by POLAR model 715 min. 30 bar, max. 11.5 bar
by POLAR model 155 min. 30 bar, max. 130 bar

Testing and check out procedure clamp pressure:


Connect manometer gauge to the test outlet on the right
pillar (See 1.3 Hydraulic system).
The pressure can only be checked during the cutting cycles.
Any adjustment or correction is done by turning the valve

The max. pressure position is the fixed b$ a dead end screw
on which the foot pedal will come to rest in the max. po-
sition.

Control slide piston


The oil flow of circulation from PI and P2 is controlled
by the sliding piston in the hydraulic control block. Thy
movement of this piston is given by the hydraulic oil pres-
sure itself and a compression spring holding the sliding
piston down. In the idling position of the machine, the ball
type valve is open and oil from PI and~P2 can flow via the
channel grooves on the sliding piston back to the oil tank.
However is the ball type valve closed, then the oil flow
from P2 is blocked and an oil pressure build up in line P?2
will take place. Thru a small nozzle opening in the sliding
piston the compressed oil is pushing against the butttin
surface of the piston. The result is ari upward movement
of the piston (against the spring tension) and by 45 b?r
the piston has reached the full up movement position. At
this stage the ball type valve becomesclosed andtheclamp-
ing pressure over Pl as well as the cutting cycle over P<K
in a retarded timing takes place.
