Miscellaneous
Always be aware of the condition of your machine. Routinely check the condition of the following items and
repair or replace as necessary
：
• Loose mounting bolts
• Worn switch
• Worn or damaged blade
• Worn or damaged support bearings or guide bearings
V-Belts
To ensure optimum power transmission from the motor to the blade and to the hydraulic pump, the V-belts
must be in good condition (free from cracks, fraying and wear) and operate under proper tension. Check the
V-belts at least every 3 months
；
more often if the bandsaw is used daily.
Bearings
Sealed and pre-lubricated ball bearings require no lubrication for the life of the bearings. All bearings are
standard sizes, and replacements can be purchased from our parts department or bearing supply store.
Greasing
The photos on this page label the grease fittings by number for easy identification. Wipe clean and lubricate
the grease fittings with two pumps of high temp bearing grease. The proper greasing intervals are indicated
by white boxes on the chart below.
Note—This page was designed to be copied and used as a check-off chart to help maintain a regular
lubrication schedule.
