ATTACHING BAND SAW

TO THE STAND

CAUTION: The band saw is very heavy. Use a helper when attaching the saw to the stand.

Attach the band saw to the stand in the four holes provided (two of which are shown at (A) Fig. 8). Place one 5/16 -18 x 1-3/4" hex head screw and one 5/16" flat washer through each hole through the bottom of the band saw and the top of the stand, and attach with a 5/16" lock washer, and 5/16- 18 hex nut.

ATTACHING AND ALIGNING V-BELT, ADJUSTING BELT TENSION

1.Attach the V-belt (E) Fig. 9 on the two pulleys (A and B), and adjust the belt tension by raising or lowering the motor

(C) on the motor mounting bars (D). (If necessary, the motor mounting bars (D) can be repositioned on the two posts (F). Tension is correct when the belt is deflected approximately 1" in the center.

2.Place a straight edge against the belt along the V- groove of both pulleys. Visually check to see that both pulleys are in line. Either pulley can be moved in or out by loosening the set screw (the lower pulley set screw is shown at (B) Fig. 7). After aligning, tighten the set screw. The motor can also be moved on the mounting bars.
