ATTACHING THE SWITCH

A push-button switch (mounted in a switch box) and a cord set are supplied with the unit. To attach the switch to the band saw arm:

DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER SOURCE.

The on/off switch-to-motor cord (F) Fig. 11 is tied to the vertical mounting post (G) opposite the motor pulley. The cable tie (H) prevents the switch-to-motor cord (F) from contacting the belt or motor pulley during operation.

IMPORTANT: LEAVE THIS CABLE TIE IN PLACE. Remove it ONLY when using the Accessory Height Attachment with the machine.

1.Remove the two outer hex nuts and lock washers (A) Fig. 12 from the two screws extending out from the back of the switch box (B).

2.Insert two screws (C) Fig. 13, located on back of switch box, into two holes (D) located in the band saw arm.

3.Use the two nuts and lockwashers (E) Fig. 14, removed in STEP 1, to fasten the switch box to the bandsaw arm (Fig. 14).

4.Remove the screw and cable clamp (E) Fig. 15 from the lower arm of the band saw.

5.Insert the switch cord into the clamp (E) (removed in STEP 4), and fasten the switch cord to the machine.
