DO NOT connect power to the bandsaw until instructed to do so. Failure to do this may result in serious person- al injury.

Table

The table for this bandsaw is very heavy. Get help when placing it on the trunnion.

To mount the table:

1.Installing the table is easiest if the blade is out of the way. Remove the blade by first loosening the blade tension handwheel, move the blade guide bearings (refer to the section titled Blade Changes on page 25) then by sliding it off the bandsaw wheels. Wear heavy leather gloves to protect your hands.

2.With the help of another person, lift the table onto the trunnion.

3.Place the large hex bolt with washer through the table trunnion mount and the trunnion. The assembly should now look similar to

Figure 6.

Fence

To mount the fence:

1.Loosen the lock knob and slide the fence onto the rail.

2.Slide the fence beyond the center of the table so the blade can be installed without blocking the fence as shown in Figure 7.

3.Please refer to the section titled Blade Changes on page 25 to install the blade.

4.Tension the blade enough to keep it on the saw so it does not spring off during the rest of the assembly process.
