Powermatic PWBS-14CS Resaw Guide, Blower Nozzle, Work Lamp, Refer to Figures 33

NOTE: The pointer’s zero position should be tested later by cutting a straight piece of stock, carefully measuring its width, and comparing it to the scale reading.

Resaw Guide

Refer to Figure 32.

For resawing operations, attach the resaw guide (HP4-A)to the fence using the knob (HP4-B)through the slotted hole. Position the resaw guide so that it is centered approximately with the front edge of the saw blade.

The resaw guide offers a taller, single-point contact surface that allows pivoting of the workpiece in order to keep the blade on the cutting line.

Blower Nozzle

Refer to Figures 33 and 34.

1.The air hose, which is already connected to the saw body, should be inserted through the hole in the stand (visible in Figure 16) and connected to the nozzle of the air regulator on the motor (Figure 33). Use a lighter or match to briefly heat the end of the hose so that it will slip over the nozzle. As it cools, it will form a tight seal over the nozzle.

2.Attach the plate (HP1-A)to the blade guide assembly.

3.Connect the top end of the air hose to the plate (HP1-A)with the M5x12 pan head screw (HP1-D)through the cord clamp (HP1-C). Heat the end of the hose with a lighter or match, then push the wide end of the nozzle (HP1-B) into the hose; the tapered end points down toward the table as shown.

Work Lamp

Refer to Figure 35.

The goose-neck lamp uses a medium base light bulb (not provided) which should be 60 watts or less. The work lamp is operated independently of the main saw switch.

IMPORTANT: If you are using 115 volt power for the band saw, use a standard 110 volt light bulb. If you are using 230 volt power for the band saw, discontinue use of the provided lamp, and use an alternate lamp with an independent power cord.
