SAW TO STAND

THE BAND SAW IS VERY HEAVY. USE A HELPER WHEN ATTACHING THE SAW TO THE STAND.

1.Place the band saw on top of the stand as shown in Fig. 23. NOTE: MAKE SURE THE PULLEY (A) FIG. 23,

IS ON THE SIDE OF THE STAND WITH THE BELT OPENING (B).

2.Align the four holes in the saw with the four holes in the top of the stand.

3.Place a 5/16" flat washer onto a 5/16-18x1½" hex head screw. Insert the screw through the hole (C) in the saw and the stand.

4.Thread a 5/16-18 hex nut onto the screw.

5.Repeat this process for the three remaining holes in the saw and the stand and tighten securely.

MOTOR PULLEY
