Uncrating and Cleanup


1. Read and understand the entire manual

before attempting setup or operation.


2. Finish uncrating the saw and inspect for

damage. If any damage has occurred,
contact your local distributor.


3. Remove all bolts attaching machine to

shipping base.


4. Leave packing material between vice

clamps and saw head intact until bandsaw
has been lifted to its final position.


5. Clean all rust protected surfaces with

kerosene or diesel oil to remove protective
coating. Do not use gasoline, paint thinner,
mineral spirits, etc. These may damage
painted surfaces.


6. Lubricate all slideways with a light film of

Mobil DTE

Oil Heavy Medium.


Installation


For best performance, the bandsaw should be
located on a solid and level foundation. Allow
room for servicing and for moving large stock
around the bandsaw when deciding a location
for the machine.

1. Using lifting straps of adequate lifting

capacity, that are isolated from the
bandsaw's finished surfaces, lift machine
and place in desired location. See Figure 1
for strap placement.


2. Install four leveling bolts with lock nuts on

both sides of the base.


3. Place a level on the bed surface and check

side to side and front to back.


4. Adjust leveling screws until machine is level

in both directions and tighten locking nuts.


Assembly


1. Insert stop rod (A, Fig. 2) into the base

below the vise. Place stop bracket (B, Fig.
2) onto stop rod and tighten lock knob (C,
Fig. 2). Attach the connecting plate (D, Fig.
2) to stop bracket with hex cap bolt and
washer (E, Fig. 2), and tighten. Attach the
work stop (F, Fig. 2) to the connecting plate
with lock handle (G, Fig. 2), and tighten.
