MAINTENANCE
WIRING DIAGRAM
For 115V wiring;
connect the black & white motor terminal wires to the black switch wire lead, and connect the
blue & brown terminal wires to the white switch wire lead. Disregard the wires that lead to the capacitor.
For 230V wiring;
tie the black & brown terminals together, connect the white motor terminal wire to the black
switch wire lead, and connect the blue motor terminal wire to the white switch wire lead. Disregard the wires that
lead to the capacitor.
For 220V wiring, DISCONNECT the wires leading to the Power Outlet
to make it inoperable. This plug is for 115V wiring only.
BEFORE CLEANING OR CARRYING OUT MAINTENANCE WORK, DISCONNECT THE
MACHINE FROM THE POWER SOURCE (WALL SOCKET). NEVER USE WATER OR OTHER LIQUIDS
TO CLEAN THE MACHINE. USE A BENCH BRUSH. DO NOT USE COMPRESSED AIR NEAR BEARINGS.
REGULAR MAINTENANCE OF THE MACHINE WILL PREVENT UNNECESSARY PROBLEMS.
1. Keep the table clean to ensure accurate cutting.
2. Keep the outside of the machine clean to ensure accurate operation of all moving parts and prevent
excessive wear.
3. Keep the ventilation slots of the motor clean to prevent it from overheating.
4. Keep the inside of the machine (near the saw blade, etc.) clean to prevent accumulation of dust.
Use dust collection, if possible.
5. To prolong the life of the blade, when the bandsaw is not in use for extended periods, release the blade
tension. Before reusing the bandsaw, ensure that the blade is re-tensioned and tracking is checked.
6. Keep the guide bearings free of dust, and clean the guide bearing assemblies frequently.
