Unpacking and cleanup
Open boxes and inspect contents. Report any
shipping damage or missing parts to your
distributor. Do not discard packing material until
machine is assembled and running satisfactorily.
The band saw should be located in a dry, well lit
area, with enough room to handle long stock and
servicing or adjustment of the machine from any
side.
Clean off any rust-protectant with a mild solvent or
kerosene and a soft cloth. Do not use lacquer
thinner, paint thinner, or gasoline, as these will
damage painted surfaces.
Band saw must be
disconnected from power source during
assembly procedures. Failure to comply may
cause serious injury.
Note: Figures show optional accessory lamp
(#714403) mounted to Band Saw. This item is not
provided; see your dealer to order.

Assembling saw to stand
Remove rear panel of stand. Use forklift or hoist with
straps to lift saw from box and place on stand. (Keep
straps away from handles and knobs). Secure saw
firmly to stand with fasteners (Figure 5-3). Reinstall
rear panel.
5.5
Installing handles
Thread handle (C, Figure 5-3) into top and bottom
handwheels and tighten with 13mm wrench on flats.
