Align the three holes on the table with the three holes in the angle bracket. Fasten the table to

MOUNTING BAND SAW TO

WORKBENCH

See Figure 9.

If the band saw is to be used in a permanent applica- tion, we recommend that you secure it in a permanent location such as a workbench. When mounting the saw to a workbench, holes should be drilled through the supporting surface of the workbench using dimen- sions illustrated.

Each leg should be belted securely using 5/16 in. diameter machine screws, lock washers, and 5/16 in. hex nuts (not included). Screw length should be 1-314 in. plus the thickness of the bench top.

Locate and mark the holes where band saw is to be mounted.

Drill (4) 318 in. diameter holes through work- bench.

Place band saw on workbench aligning holes in the frame with holes drilled in the workbench.

Insert all four 5116 in. screws and tighten se- curely with lock washers and hex nuts.

Note: All belts should be inserted from the top. Install the lock washers and hex nuts from the underside of the bench.

Supporting surface where band saw is mounted should be examined carefully after mounting to insure that no movement during use can result. If any tipping or walking is noted, secure workbench or supporting surface before beginning cutting operations.
