Remove all packing material from around the machine. Remove screws holding the saw to the skid. Lift the machine off the skid using straps around the cast iron portions of the head (keep straps away from blade, levers, etc.).

The location should have sufficient lighting to prevent shadows around the work area. Leave enough room on all sides of the machine for movement of stock and for general maintenance work.

The base of the machine must be anchored to the floor by two lag bolts or studs properly anchored into concrete.

After positioning the machine, remove any cords that were used to secure the head in lowered position during shipping.

Exposed metal surfaces have been coated with a rust-protectant from the factory. Remove this using a soft cloth dampened with a good cleaner/degreaser. Do not use gasoline, paint thinner, acetone, or other highly flammable substances, and avoid using an abrasive pad as it may scratch metal surfaces.

CS-315, CS-275 specifications

Jet Tools has a long-standing reputation for delivering quality woodworking and metalworking machinery, and their CS-275 and CS-315 bandsaw models exemplify that commitment to excellence. Designed with both professional woodworkers and hobbyists in mind, these saws are engineered to provide precision, power, and ease of use.

The CS-275 features a robust design that includes a heavy-duty cast iron frame providing stability and reducing vibration during operation. This enhances the accuracy of cuts. With a 2.5 HP motor, the CS-275 delivers ample power for most woodworking tasks, enabling users to tackle various materials, from softwoods to hardwoods. Its easy-to-read scale and quick blade change system make blade adjustments seamless. The saw blade can accommodate a range of widths, allowing users to switch between intricate cuts and larger operations without hassle.

On the other hand, the CS-315 takes it a step further with a 3 HP motor, catering to those who need more power for demanding projects. This model boasts an extended cutting capacity, which is perfect for larger workpieces. The dual table support system ensures maximum stability, while the integrated dust collection port helps maintain a clean work environment by minimizing debris and sawdust.

Both models incorporate Jet's advanced technology that prioritizes user safety and comfort. Features such as an oversized handwheel and a precision tensioning system allow for easy adjustments of the blade, ensuring optimal performance. The CS-275 and CS-315 are equipped with high-quality bearings and a precision ground cast iron table that provides a smooth surface for cutting, enhancing performance and longevity.

Additionally, these bandsaws share a common feature: a large viewing window that allows users to monitor their cutting line easily. This ensures that every cut is precise and increases overall productivity. The saws also come with a solid standard warranty, underscoring Jet Tools' confidence in their durability and quality.

In summary, whether you choose the CS-275 or the more powerful CS-315, Jet Tools offers robust construction, innovative technologies, and user-centered design. Both models are excellent additions to any workshop, providing reliability and performance that professionals and enthusiasts alike will appreciate.
