OSWEGO PAPER CUTTERS

Oswego Power Cutter, Hand-Clamp,!Shear Stroke

Oswego Automatic Clamp Cutter

Oswego Bench, Oswego Lever and Oswego Hand Wheel Drive Cutters have several features that are on the " Oswego-made" cutters
only. Among them the simple and quick adjustment to knife, no long row of bolts to loosen, the knife has a solid backing in the bar, instead
of abutting against the points of screws. The knife is leveled by simply turning the eccentric bolt at the left, and the wear is taken
up by a simple turn of the connecting rod.
The lever motion is self-contained, the upper and lower turning points being both in the solid right-hand frame casting. There can
be no twisting of the frames to cause the clamp or knife bar to bind. The proportions of the lever motions and the double shear to knife
make the cutting easy, the knife rising one-half inch higher at one end than at the other. The knife bar has adjustable gibs to take up
wear. The knife bar lever is adjustable to allow for the varying width of the knife as worn, also to suit individual preferences forits loca-
tion. The lever is counterbalanced to swing easily.
The table is set at a convenient height and is supported by two girders, each holding it under the points of greatest strain. The front
table has two wings extending sideways past the frames, giving the largest possible surface to handle work on. A brass rule graduated to
sixteenths of an inch is set in front table. The front table is also scored in one-half inch squares, and the back table is graduated to six-
teenths of an inch.
The clamp has broad fingers so as not to indent work unduly. The end bearings of the clamp are the largest possible, to prevent the
clamp tilting. The clamp screw nut is self-adjusting, making it easy to clamp work without binding.
The back gauge interlocks with the clamp so that work can be cut up to one-half inch. The split part is flush on one side, thus making
practically another back side gauge near the middle of the machine. This allows the knife to be worn equally. The frames are flush,
forming a continuous side gauge, front and back, on both the right and left-hand sides. An additional back side gauge is also furnished,
which can be put on either right or left. The detachable front side gauge can be adjusted out and in at different angles.
Ontario and Oswego Power Cutters and the 33-inch Oswego Combination Cutters are all simple, compact, self-contained, lively running
and accurate. The working parts are few; the bearings are large; the table is low; the knife is backed solidly against the bar, and there
are no slots for the knife bolts to slip in, the knife being instantly adjusted by a turn of the connecting rod. The knife bar ways have
adjustable lugs for wear. The table is ruled to sixteenths, and is supported by a web girder directly under the cutting strain. The clamp
and back gauge interlock, allowing work to be cut up to one-half inch. A screw movement is furnished for the back gauge regularly,
reading to sixteenths, or a cable movement is furnished to order. The uniformly positive stroke of knife, determined by the crank motion,
never allows the knife to cut into stick nor to fall short. The clutch is positively thrown out automatically after every cut, and the knife
stopped at the top ready to be started again when the starting lever is pulled.
The Ontario Power cutters with Hand Drive attachment are designed to take advantage of the more general distribution of power.
The labor connected with cutting work on a lever cutter by hand is eliminated, and a corresponding gain is made in time and efficiency.
The Oswego Power cutters are made in every style and size called for. The clutch mechanism has been improved, and the Oswego
cutters are offered as cutting machines designed to cut accurately and rapidly all classes of work.
The 33-inch Oswego Combination Hand and Power cutter has double clamp screws and a geared speed change, which enables cutting
by hand to be done with the greatest ease. It is actually 34% inches between the frames, and, having a grooved table for the back gauge
fingers to slide in, the sheets can never wedge under the back gauge.
All Brown & Carver and Oswego Cutting Machines are tested on actual work for accuracy and strength at Oswego Machine Works
before shipping. They are guaranteed free from defects of workmanship and material. Send for complete catalogue containing illustra-
tions and complete details of all machines.
