MAINTENANCE
During the life of your machine, you will
need to practice some regular maintenance
to keep your saw in peak performance
condition.
CLEANING AND
LUBRICATION
The moisture from the wood dust remains
on the table surface and can cause rust.
Protect the un-painted cast iron surfaces of
the table by cleaning the dust and wiping
with a piece of cloth after every use. Apply
a protective coating after.
If the table becomes harder to tilt, remove
the table and apply a few drops of oil on the
trunnions
V-BELT
The V-belt stretches with use, and should
be re-tensioned periodically. To ensure
optimum power transfer from the motor to
the blade, the belt must be in good
condition and under proper tension.
Check the V-belt at least after every 3
months and more often if the band saw is
used daily.
TO REPLACE THE V-BELT:
Turn the power switch to OFF position and
disconnect the cord from the power source.
Remove saw blade. See page-16.
Remove tension on drive belt by loosening
screw securing the motor to the saw body.
See figure-19.
Figure-19 Releasing tension on the V-belt
Use snap ring pliers and remove the snap
ring that secures the lower wheel to the
shaft. See figure-20.
Figure-20 Removing the lower wheel
Slide lower wheel assembly off the shaft
and remove the old belt.
Place new belt onto lower wheel pulley.
Reinstall lower wheel assembly by sliding it
back onto the shaft.
Reinstall snap ring.
WARNING!
When installing, removing, cleaning or
servicing any part of the machine, make
sure the power switch is in the off
position and the cord is disconnected
from the power source. Failure to do so
may result in serious personal injury or
death.
