To Fill The coolant Tank
NOTE:
When cutting magnesium, use soluble
oils or emulsions (oil/water mix) as water only will
greatly intensify any accidental magnesium chip fire.
Contact industrial coolant supplier for specific coolant
recommendations before cutting magnesium.
1. Remove the Hose (78) at the top of the
Coolant Tank (82). Then slide the Coolant
Tank out from under the Stand (77S)
of the Bandsaw. (See Figure H.)
2. Fill the Coolant Tank to about 80% capacity with
a clean, water-soluble coolant (not included).
3. Slide the Coolant Tank back under the Stand
of the Bandsaw. Then re-insert the Hose
through the top of the Coolant Tank.
IMpORTANT:
Replace the water-soluble coolant
as often as is necessary to keep metal debris
in the coolant from clogging the hoses.
