INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE, AND CLEANING

 WARNING!  Make sure the Power Switch of the Band Saw is in its “OFF” position and

that the tool is unplugged from its electrical outlet before performing any inspection,
maintenance, or cleaning procedures.

1.

Before each use, inspect the general condition of the Band Saw. Check for loose

screws, misalignment or binding of moving parts, cracked or broken parts, damaged
electrical wiring, and any other condition that may affect its safe operation.  If abnormal
noise or vibration occurs, have the problem corrected before further use.

Caution: Do not use damaged equipment.

2.

Check that the Saw Blade does not contact the Base (1) when brought down. Adjust

the Depth Adjustment Bolt (93) if necessary.

3.

Periodically recheck all nuts, bolts, and screws for tightness.

4.

Cover and store in a clean and dry location.

5.

If the Band Saw will not be used over long periods of time, release the tension on the

Saw Blade (49).

6.

Clean the Band Saw after each use. Sweep clean of all cutting debris.

7.

Some repair and maintenance procedures, not described in this manual, may require

the use of a qualified service technician.

Replacing the Saw Blade

Caution: The Saw Blade (49) is very sharp and difficult to handle. Always wear gloves.

1.

Remove the Body Cover (4) by unscrewing six screws holding it in place.

2.

Turn the Blade Tension Knob (47) counterclockwise to decrease tension on the Saw

Blade enough to loosen and remove it from the Return Flywheel (20) and the Motor
Flywheel (6).

Note: Observe the direction of the teeth on the Saw Blade, and the direction arrow indicator on
the Band Saw.

3.

Wearing gloves, remove the old Saw Blade. Coil and secure.

4.

Place the new Saw Blade over the Return Flywheel (20) and the Motor Flywheel (6).

See the Specifications on page 2 for the correct Saw Blade specifications. Verify that

the direction of the teeth are correct as noted on the Band Saw indicator arrow.

5.

Turn the Blade Tension Knob (47) clockwise to increase tension on the Saw Blade

enough so it does not slide while on the Return Flywheel (20) and the Motor Flywheel
(6).

6.

Replace the Body Cover (4) by replacing the six screws that hold it in place.
