Machine Setup

To ensure that your bandsaw arrives without damage to the hinge system, a shipping bracket was installed. After removing the shipping bracket, you will have to adjust the downfeed stop bolt.

To set up the machine:

1.Remove the shipping strap hex bolt and strap as shown in Figure 10. Keep this shipping bracket in case you transport or ship the bandsaw in the future.

2.Adjust the downfeed stop bolt and jam nut shown in Figure 11 with a 14mm wrench, so the bandsaw blade teeth are just below the table surface when the cut is complete.
