8.6Length stop

Refer to Figure 7.

1.Screw the lower rod into the threaded hole in the base. Orient the rod so that the graduated scale is visible, and tighten the hex nut with a 19mm wrench to secure.

2.Calibrate the length stop: Lower the blade, and loosen the knobs on the rod holder. Then slide the upper rod into contact with the blade, and adjust the rod holder so that its left edge aligns with the zero. Re-tighten the top knob to secure the zero setting.

9.0Electrical connections

Electrical connections must be made by a qualified electrician in compliance with all relevant

codes. This machine must be properly grounded to help prevent electrical shock and possible fatal injury.

On all models, if a machine is being hard-wired to a panel, make sure a disconnect is available for the operator. During hard-wiring of the machine, make sure the fuses have been removed or the breakers have been tripped in the circuit to which the cold saw will be connected. Place a warning placard on

the fuse holder or circuit breaker to prevent it being turned on while the machine is being wired.

See table 2 for recommended circuit sizes for your particular model. NOTE: Local codes take precedence over recommendations.

9.1Three-phase models

The CS-275 (3-phase) and CS-315 (3-phase) are rated for 230-volt only power. They are not supplied with a plug. You may either install a proper 230V UL/CSA listed plug, or “hardwire” the machine directly to a service panel.

After wiring, make sure that the blade rotates in the proper direction. If it does not, reverse two of the 3- phase wires on the supply input.

9.2Single-phase models

The CS-315-1 (single phase) is rated for 230-volt only power. It is not supplied with a plug. You may either install a proper 230V UL/CSA listed plug, or “hardwire” the machine directly to a service panel.

The CS-275-1 (single phase) is rated for 115/230V, prewired for 115V and supplied with a 120-volt rated plug. It may be converted to 230V. See section 9.3.

9.3Voltage conversion (model CS- 275-1 only)

To convert from 115V to 230V:

1.Remove the panel from the control box.

2.On the transformer, reconnect the L11 line from the 120V terminal to the 230V terminal (A, Figure 8).

Figure 8

3.Replace the 20 amp fuses with 10 amp fuses in the first two fuse holders (B, Figure 8).

CS-315, CS-275 specifications

Jet Tools has a long-standing reputation for delivering quality woodworking and metalworking machinery, and their CS-275 and CS-315 bandsaw models exemplify that commitment to excellence. Designed with both professional woodworkers and hobbyists in mind, these saws are engineered to provide precision, power, and ease of use.

The CS-275 features a robust design that includes a heavy-duty cast iron frame providing stability and reducing vibration during operation. This enhances the accuracy of cuts. With a 2.5 HP motor, the CS-275 delivers ample power for most woodworking tasks, enabling users to tackle various materials, from softwoods to hardwoods. Its easy-to-read scale and quick blade change system make blade adjustments seamless. The saw blade can accommodate a range of widths, allowing users to switch between intricate cuts and larger operations without hassle.

On the other hand, the CS-315 takes it a step further with a 3 HP motor, catering to those who need more power for demanding projects. This model boasts an extended cutting capacity, which is perfect for larger workpieces. The dual table support system ensures maximum stability, while the integrated dust collection port helps maintain a clean work environment by minimizing debris and sawdust.

Both models incorporate Jet's advanced technology that prioritizes user safety and comfort. Features such as an oversized handwheel and a precision tensioning system allow for easy adjustments of the blade, ensuring optimal performance. The CS-275 and CS-315 are equipped with high-quality bearings and a precision ground cast iron table that provides a smooth surface for cutting, enhancing performance and longevity.

Additionally, these bandsaws share a common feature: a large viewing window that allows users to monitor their cutting line easily. This ensures that every cut is precise and increases overall productivity. The saws also come with a solid standard warranty, underscoring Jet Tools' confidence in their durability and quality.

In summary, whether you choose the CS-275 or the more powerful CS-315, Jet Tools offers robust construction, innovative technologies, and user-centered design. Both models are excellent additions to any workshop, providing reliability and performance that professionals and enthusiasts alike will appreciate.
