Cutting Fluid System
This bandsaw has a built-in cutting fluid system
that extends the life of your bandsaw blades by
lowering the cutting temperature and washing
away chips.
See
Cutting Fluid on Page 31 for more informa-
tion.
To use cutting fluid system:
1. Thoroughly clean and remove any foreign
material that may have fallen inside reservoir
during shipping.
2. Place filter screen and drain tube in reservoir,
as shown in
Figure 38.

HAZARD! Never plug or
unplug machine with wet
hands or while standing on
wet floor.
4. Adjust valve on coolant hose to control flow
of coolant (see
Figure 39). Make sure that
pressure is not so high that coolant spills on
floor and creates a slipping hazard.
5. Turn pump toggle switch ON before making
your cut.
FIRE HAZARD! DO NOT cut
magnesium when using oil-
water solutions as a cut-
ting fluid! Always use a
cutting fluid intended for
magnesium. The water in
the solution will cause a
magnesium-chip fire.
Keep tray chip screen clear so coolant can
recycle to pump reservoir. NEVER operate
pump with reservoir below low mark or you
will over-heat pump and void warranty!
3. Fill reservoir to "High" mark with cutting fluid.
