Clean Up

The unpainted surfaces are coated with a waxy oil to protect them from corrosion during ship- ment. Remove this protective coating with a sol- vent cleaner or citrus-based degreaser such as Grizzly’s G7895 Degreaser. To clean thoroughly, some parts may need to be removed. For opti- mum performance from your machine, make sure you clean all moving parts or sliding contact surfaces that are coated. Avoid chlo- rine-based solvents as they may damage painted surfaces should they come in contact. Always fol- low the manufacturer’s instructions when using any type of cleaning product.

Do not use gasoline or other petroleum-based solvents to clean with. They have low flash points which make them extremely flammable. A risk of explosion and burning exists if these products are used.

Do not smoke while using solvents. A risk of explo- sion or fire exists and may result in serious personal injury.

Many of the solvents commonly used to clean machinery can be toxic when inhaled or ingest- ed. Always work in well- ventilated areas far from potential ignition sources when dealing with sol- vents. Use care when dis- posing of waste rags and towels to be sure they do not create fire or environ- mental hazards.

Site Considerations

1.Floor Load: The 24" and 27" Resaw Bandsaws represent a large weight load in a small footprint. Most commercial floors are suitable for your machine. Some residential floors may require additional build up to sup- port both machine and operator.

2.Working Clearances: Consider existing and anticipated needs, size of material to be processed through each machine, and space for auxiliary stands, work tables or other machinery when establishing a loca- tion for your bandsaw.

3.Lighting and Outlets: Lighting should be bright enough to eliminate shadow and pre- vent eye strain. Electrical circuits should be dedicated or large enough to handle amper- age requirements. Outlets should be located near each machine so power or extension cords are clear of high-traffic areas. Observe local electrical codes for proper installation of new lighting, outlets, or circuits.

Make your shop “child safe.” Ensure that your workplace is inaccessible to children by closing and locking all entrances when you are away. Never allow visitors in your shop when assembling, adjusting, or operating equipment.
