Shut-Off Switch

Remove the screw and hex nuts which held the bow to the base during shipment. These should be retained in case of future transportation of the Band Saw.

The screw below the limit switch, shown in Figure 4, has been pre-set at the factory so that the switch will contact the screw and stop the blade after each cutting operation.

Coolant Hose

Before operating, the coolant drain hose (Figure

5)must be connected to the coolant pan and the other end of the hose placed into the filter cup in the tank as shown.

The hose from the coolant pump is attached to a valve which should be inserted into the hole on the guide assembly (see Figure 17).

Grounding Instructions

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.

This machine must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.

This band saw is pre-wired for 115 volt and is equipped with an electric cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug similar to that shown in Figure 6. The plug must be inserted into a matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Do not modify the plug provided. If it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

Improper connection of the equipment- grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. The conductor, with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes, is the equipment- grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding conductor to a live terminal.

Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the machine is properly grounded.
