Depending on the desired cutting application, this
band saw can be set for either “Wood Cutting” mode
with a speed range of 540-3600 SFPM (with wood
working blade installed) or “Metal Cutting” mode
with a speed range of 100-650 SFPM (with metal
working blade installed).
This is done by changing the positioning and
configuration of the belt(s) to match the desired
mode of operation.
Wood Mode 7.20
Metal Mode 7.21
Metal Mode
indicator 7.22
7.17.1 Changing to “Wood cutting” Mode
Reference figures 7.20, 7.21, 7.22, 7-23, and 7-
24
Wear gloves when handling
blades.
This procedure will presume that the saw is setup of
the opposite operating mode.
1.
Disconnect machine from power source.
2. Turn the handwheel (A, Figure 7-23) to loosen
the drive belts (D, Figure 7.21). This will push
the intermediate pulley (B, Figure 7-23) inboard.
Figure 7-23
3. Loosen the lock handle (C, Figure 7-23) and lift
the motor to loosen the vertical drive belt (C,
Figure 7.21) and then tighten the lock handle to
hold the motor in the up position.
4. Open the lower drive wheel door.
5. Remove the short Poly V-Belt A28 (D, Figure 7-
24) and store for use when setting up for metal
cutting.
6. Route the long Poly V-Belt 17-470 off of the
inboard groove of the intermediate pully (E,
Figure 7.24) and onto the inboard groove of the
motor pulley (F, Figure 7.24).
Figure 7-24
7. Loosen the lock handle (C, Figure 7-23) and
lower the motor to tighten the vertical drive belt
(C, Figure 7.21).
8. Check tension by pushing with moderate
pressure on the belt halfway between the
pulleys. An adequately tensioned belt will
deflect about 1/2”. If tension is not strong
enough, push down on motor.
