Beginning
The photos used in this manual are of the Model G9966. They are used for illustrative purposes only and any differences between the 24" and the 27" Bandsaws will be discussed in that particular section.
To complete the assembly process, follow the instructions in this section.
NOTICE
When the fence is to the left of the blade, it must be positioned near the center of the table in order to open the lower wheel cover.
24" & 27" Resaw Bandsaws
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, 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. Do not tighten the bolt completely at this time. The assembly should now look similar to Figure 4.
