SAW TO STAND

THE BAND SAW IS VERY HEAVY. USE A HELPER WHEN ATTACHING THE SAW TO THE CABINET.

1.Place the band saw on top of the cabinet as shown in Fig. 23. NOTE: MAKE SURE THE PULLEY (A) FIG.

23, IS ON THE SIDE OF THE CABINET WITH THE BELT OPENING (B).

2.Align the four holes in the saw with the four holes in the top of the cabinet.

3.Place 5/16" flat washers on a 5/16-18x1½" hex head screws. Insert the screws through the holes (C) in the saw and the cabinet.

4.Thread 5/16-18 hex nuts on the screws and tighten securely.

MOTOR PULLEY

NOTE: Both the motor pulley (A) Fig. 24, and the gearbox pulley (B) are four-step pulleys and should always be attached inverted to each other.

Check to see if the gear box pulley (B) is attached with the largest step of the pulley in the “in” or “out” position. In this case, the largest step of the gear box pulley (B) is in the “out” position. Attach the motor pulley (A) to the motor shaft with the largest step of the motor pulley in the “in” position.

1.Place the 3/4" to 5/8" reducing bushing on the motor shaft. Align the split in the reducer with the key way slot.

2.Place the key in the motor shaft.

3.Position the pulley on the shaft. Line it up with the key. Secure with two 5/16-18x5/16" set screws.

BELT TO SAW AND MOTOR PULLEY

1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER

SOURCE.

2.Use a straight edge to align the inside grooves of the pulleys (A) and (B) Fig. 24 to the inside edge of the drive pulley (C). The pulleys can be moved in or out on the shafts and the motor can also be moved.

3.Place the longer V-Belt on the inside groove of the motor (A) and the drive pulley (C) Fig. 25. Place the shorter V-Belt on any one of the remaining three grooves on the motor pulley (A) and the corresponding groove on the gear box pulley (B). (Fig. 25 shows belts in place.)

4.Adjust the belt tension by raising or lowering the motor on the motor mounting brackets (A) Fig. 7. Keep the pulleys in alignment when performing this operation. Proper tension is 1/4" deflection at the center of the belt with light finger pressure.
