Setting the Work Stop
Referring to Figure 5:
The work stop is an accessory that is included
with the JET J-9225 Bandsaw. It is used to set
up the saw for making multiple cuts of the same
length.
Do not allow the blade to rest
on the workpiece when the saw is not
cutting.
Installation
1. Insert the distance set rod (A) into the hole
(B) at the front of the base as shown.
2. Secure by tightening the socket setscrew
(C) with a 3mm hex wrench.
Adjustment
3. The distance set bracket (D) is moved along
the distance set rod (A) by loosening the
lock handle (E). The stop rod (F) can be
repositioned (G) by loosening lock handle
(H) and also by rotating the set rod (A) to
reposition the angle of the bracket (D).
Quick Release Vise Operation
Referring to Figure 6:
The vise on the J-9225 bandsaw comes
equipped with a quick-release handle that
permits the workpiece to be rapidly repositioned
or changed for a repeated cutting operation
while requiring only one initial adjustment of the
vise handwheel. This is done as follows:
1. Place the quick-release handle (A) in the up
position as shown.
2. Turn the handwheel (B) counterclockwise
until the workpiece can be placed in
position.
3. Place the workpiece (C) in the vise (D) and
against the work stop (E); turn the hand-
wheel (B) until the vise begins to clamp onto
the workpiece. Then back the handwheel off
just enough to permit the workpiece to slide
in and out of the vise.
4. Place the quick-release handle (A) in the
down position. The workpiece is secure and
ready for cutting.
The vise is now set up for a repeated cutting
operation. Simply raise the quick-release
handle, reposition or replace the workpiece and
reset the handle down again.
