MAGNUM INDUSTRIAL MI-91500 DELUXE 14” BAND SAW
CHANGING SPEED SETTINGS
The MI-91500 has two speed settings: 2,300 LFM (low) and
3,250 LFM (high).
• Low speed is ideal for cutting soft woods over 4” in height
or hardwoods over 2” in height.
• High speed is best for cutting soft woods under 4” in
height or hardwoods under 2” in height.
If wood starts to burn at high speed, stop and change to
the lower speed setting.
To change the speed of your band saw complete the following
steps:
At the back of the band saw, next to the motor, there is a
RATCHET LEVER (A) for loosening the tension on the drive
belt. When you pull it out as shown in Figure 37, it disengages.
When you release it, it engages the bolt for screwing or
unscrewing. See Figure 38.
1. Unscrew the bolt a few turns counterclockwise then lift
the MOTOR (D) by hand and tighten RATCHET LEVER
(A) to lock the motor in position. This will loosen the drive
belt enough to move it between one set of pulleys and the
other.
2. Open the lower wheel cover door.
3. To set the band saw speed to low (2,300 LFM), place the
belt on the front set of pulleys. See Figure 39.
4. To set the band saw speed to high (3,250 LFM), place the
belt on the rear set of pulleys. See Figure 40.
5. After the belts are in position, set the motor back to its
initial position to tighten the belt around the pulleys
6. To secure the motor, turn the RATCHET LEVER (A)
clockwise until it is tight and the motor does not move.
