Unpacking and Installation
IMPORTANT!
This machine cannot be handled without the use of lifting tools. Take all
necessary precautions when manoeuvring.
Unpack your bandsaw and check to ensure it is undamaged. If damage has
occurred during transit, you should notify your Clarke dealer immediately.
Using appropriate tools, raise the saw sufficiently for blocks to be placed beneath, to
allow the wheels to be fitted. Ensure it is perfectly stable.
Slide the axles through the holes provided in the base, then slide a circlip on to
each axle, followed by a wheel. Secure each wheel with a further circlip then
attach the plastic wheel hub covers.
Raise the saw using an appropriate tool, remove the blocks, then lower on to its
wheels. It will now be easier to manoeuvre to your desired location.
Clean rust protected surfaces with kerosene/paraffin or a mild solvent. DO NOT
use cellulose solvents such as paint thinners as these will damage painted surfaces.
Finally, wipe the cleaned, bare surfaces with a cloth impregnated with clean oil.
