DO NOT operate this bandsaw without an adequate dust collection system. This saw creates substantial amounts of wood dust while operating. Failure to use a dust collec- tion system can result in short and long-term respiratory illness.

Recommended CFM at Each Dust Port: 400

Do not confuse this CFM recommendation with the rating of the dust collector. To determine the CFM at the dust port, you must take into account many variables, including the CFM rating of the dust collector, the length of hose between the dust collector and the machine, the amount of branches or wyes, and the amount of other open lines throughout the system. Explaining this calcu- lation is beyond the scope of this manual. If you are unsure of your system, consult an expert or purchase a good dust collection "how-to" book.

To connect a dust collection hose:

1.Fit a 4" dust hose over each dust port, as shown in Figure 21, and secure in place with a hose clamp.

2.Tug each hose to make sure it does not come off. Note: A tight fit is necessary for proper performance.

The threaded holes on the front and back of the table are mounting holes for the fence rails.

To assemble the fence:

1.Mount the rear fence rail to the table with (2) M6-1 x 16 cap screws. If a cap screw falls inside of the rear fence rail, remove the rail end plug to retrieve it.

2.Install the front fence rail to the table with (2) M6-1 x 20 hex bolts and (2) 6mm lock wash- ers. Make sure the scale is face up.

3.Set the fence on the front and rear rails. The fence should easily slide across the rails. If the fence rubs on the table surface, the height adjustment screw on the bottom of the fence needs to be threaded out a small amount. This raises the riding height of the fence.
