OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: Now that you have completed the four adjustment steps which are an essential part of safe, accurate bandsaw
operation, it would be a good idea to make yourself a checklist as follows to ensure that each adjustment to the bandsaw
is made in the proper order starting with the general safety precaution:
1. Turn off the bandsaw and unplug the power cord.
2. Adjust blade tension.
3. Adjust blade tracking.
4. Adjust upper blade guides and thrust bearing.
5. Adjust lower blade guides and thrust bearing.
CHECKLIST BEFORE STARTING
These additional safety measures should be be included in your checklist:
6. Make sure all the blade guards are in place.
7. Make sure the bandsaw table and work area in general are clean and free of sawdust and debris.
These steps should always be followed when any adjustment is performed, the blade is changed, or periodically as vibra-
tion and normal wear and tear on the machine could throw these parts out of alignment.
CONNECTING TO A DUST COLLECTOR
A dust port with a 2.5” opening is provided to accommodate
connection to a dust collector (not included).
Once the dust port has been installed (See Previous section
“Attaching the dust port”), be sure to use appropriate sized
hose and fittings (not included) and check that all connec-
tions are sealed tightly to help minimize airborne dust.
If you do not already own a dust collection system consider

tion on our complete line of dust collection systems and acces-
sories or visit our Web Site at: www.general.ca.
