MAINTENANCE
REPLACING THE OIL
If the saw is undergoing normal usage, replace the oil
approximately once every year. The oil quantity is 5 to
6.7 fl. oz. (150 to 200 ml). For professional or industrial
use, replace more often. The gear box oil type used
with your band saw is L-CKE 150# gear oil.
To access the oil, open the gearbox by removing the
four screws (Fig. 24 - 1). Prepare a container below the
gear box and open the gear box cover. Be careful, as
the oil may pour out when the cover is removed. Drain
the oil into the container and replace with fresh gear oil.
NOTE: The gear box may be air tight and not easy to
open.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
1. Keep all surfaces clean and free of rust, chips and coolant buildup. At the end of each work day, vacuum sawdust
and clean the machine with a dry cloth or brush. Use a small paintbrush or parts cleaning brush to remove metal
particles. Keep blade guides clean and free of metal chips/residue.
NOTE: Do not use compressed air to clean the band saw. Compressed air may force chips into the guide bearings
and other critical areas of the machine.
2. Periodically check that all nuts and bolts are tight.
3. Routinely check the condition of the power supply cords and replace them if they are broken, worn or if internal
wires are showing.
4. To ensure effective machine operation, check the condition of the blade daily. Sharpen or replace the saw blade
as necessary. Check guide bearings frequently to make sure they are properly adjusted and turning freely.
5. Your may release the blade tension at the end of each workday to prolong blade life.
6. Check and refill coolant. Low coolant level can cause foaming and high blade temperatures. Dirty or weak cool-
ant can clog the pump and damage the blade. Dirt in the coolant can also contribute to the growth of bacteria that
can cause skin irritation.
7. During unpacking, you should have applied a coat of good quality light machine oil to the machine. Reapply
machine oil as necessary to protect the machine from rust and corrosion.
8. If you do not intend to use the machine for a long time, clean it and store it in a dry place. Release the blade ten-
sion and make sure the blade stays slack so that it is not kept under tension during storage.
WARNING:
Disconnect the machine from the power source before making any maintenance or adjust-
ments. Failure to do so may result in serious injury.
