MAINTENANCE
1. Always use a dust collection system. This will help prevent sawdust from building up inside the band saw.
2. Wipe off the table after every use. Remove any pitch, sap, or resin that has accumulated on the table, blade guide,
bearings, etc. using a damp cloth.
3. At least once a month, open the doors and vacuum out any accumulated dust, shavings, etc. Remove the blade
and clean off any built-up sawdust from the wheels and tires using a stiff brush.
4. Check the drive belt at least monthly for proper tension and any signs of wear.
5. As needed, apply a light coat of good-quality paste wax to the table. This will help provide a smooth gliding sur-
face for your workpieces.
6. The bearings on your band saw are permanently sealed and lubricated, and require no additional lubrication.
7. If you do not plan to use the saw for a long period of time (over 1 week), release tension on the blade, as well as
on the drive belt. This will help prolong blade life and belt life. Do not forget to re-engage the belt and blade tension
before using the saw again.
WARNING!
Always turn OFF and unplug the band saw before performing any maintenance.
