8.1Operating lever

Refer to Figure 3.

1.Remove the hex nut and screw from the hole at the front of the saw head (Figure 4). These fasteners will not be used again unless the machine needs to be transported in the future.

2.Insert the operating lever into the threaded fill hole. Rotate it a good distance into the hole, and make sure the final orientation of the handle grip is in a comfortable position for the operator, as shown in Figure 3.

3.Secure the operating lever by tightening the hex nut against the saw head.

4.Push the two-pin cable connector into the receptacle sleeve on the junction box of the motor, and tighten the knurled ring to secure.

8.4Coolant tank

Refer to Figure 5.

Direct the lower end of the drain hose into the basket of the coolant tank, as shown.

Fill the tank with coolant before operating the coolant pump. Failure to do so may damage the pump.

Adjust the valve on the coolant fitting atop the blade housing, to achieve desired flow. When the coolant switch is in the ON position, flow starts when the drive motor is started. Turning off the coolant switch stops coolant flow.

8.2Handle

Refer to Figure 4.

Screw the handle into the handwheel and tighten with the nut, using a 12mm wrench.

8.3Exension roller

Refer to Figure 4.

Mount the extension roller to the side with the existing socket head cap screws, using a 6mm hex key.

Slots make the roller assembly adjustable for height. Place a straight edge across the clamp table and the extension roller to achieve alignment.

Figure 5

8.5Splash plates

Refer to Figure 6.

The plates deflect expended coolant and swarf coming off the blade, into the encircling channel of the base. The coolant drains back into the tank, while the swarf is easily cleaned from the channel.

Mount the two plates to the front and rear of the base, using the existing screws in the base and a 6mm hex key. Slots allow height adjustment.

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.
