Model G0887 (Mfd. Since 01/19)
This bandsaw has a built-in coolant system
that can extend the life of your bandsaw blades
by lowering the temperature of the blade and
workpiece if used properly when cutting.
FIRE HAZARD! DO NOT cut
magnesium when using oil-
water solutions as coolant!
Always use coolant intend-
ed for magnesium. Water in
the solution could cause a
magnesium-chip fire.
NEVER run machine without coolant in
the reservoir or when coolant is below low
mark or you will overheat pump and void
warranty!
Add coolant (refer to
Adding Coolant on Page
57) before using coolant system.
Turn coolant pump
ON with the coolant pump but-
ton (
) on the control panel. Open coolant valves
to control flow of cutting fluid (see
Figure 57).
Using Coolant System
Figure 57. Coolant valve (1 of 3) open.
Coolant Valve
Note: Too much flow at the fluid nozzle will make
a mess and can make the work area unsafe; and
not enough fluid at the cut will overheat the blade,
causing the blade teeth to load up and break.
The auxiliary hose and sprayer can be used to
rinse metal chips into the reservoir.
Figure 59. Example of spray gun in use.
1. Position splash guard on side of base near
location of spraying operation.
2. Close coolant control valves.
3. Press coolant pump button ( ). Coolant will
now spray when the trigger is pressed (see
Figure 59).
Using Spray Gun
IMPORTANT: Monitor coolant level frequently to
keep system working properly. DO NOT let cool-
ant level fall below halfway level on filter screen
(see
Figure 58).
