Machine Set-up

The saw delivered to you has been adjusted at the factory. A number of test pieces have been cut using the saw to verify the accuracy of cutting.

Therefore, the only set-up operations required before releasing the saw for service are spotting the saw and establishing the electrical connections to the motor.

If ordered with the coolant kit, the kit is typically installed at the JET factory. However, if the kit is ordered separately by you, it must be installed by a set-up mechanic, so instructions for this task are included in this Machine set-upsection, as well.

Uncrating and spotting the saw

Spot the saw where it makes the most sense for the operations you will probably be doing. If you are going to be doing cut-off work on very long pieces of stock, allow plenty of room for the stock, infeed and outfeed supports, etc.

Remove the saw from the shipping skid and discard any hold-down devices which might have secured the saw to the skid.

Note the lock plate on the arm of the saw which is secured under the bump rubber. This lock plate must be removed before the saw arm can be raised. You may discard the lock plate and cap screw used to hold it in place. Be sure, however, to replace the nut on the bottom of the horizontal stop.

Electrical

The saw is delivered as either a 115 volt or 230 volt saw, depending upon your order. Wiring diagrams for either type of circuit are shown here.

The motor is connected, internally, to achieve the voltage set-up required. However, you can change the motor's internal wiring connections to change the operating voltage, if necessary.

To change the operating voltage

1.Disconnect the saw from its electrical power source.

2.Open the motor plate. The requirements for

either 115 or 230 volt connection will be seen on a diagram inside the motor plate.

3.After making the connections, close the motor plate.

4.If you are using a plug connection to a socket, you will need to use the appropriate plug for the new power source supplying the saw, then plug the cord into the supplying receptacle to reconnect power to the saw.

5.If you are hard wired to a junction box, connect to the wires in the box, close the box, and reestablish power to the branch.

6.The saw is now ready for service.

Note: JET recommends that any wiring involving hard wiring of the saw to a branch, or any change of voltage supplied to the motor, be performed by a licensed electrician.

Note: also --- if the coolant kit is installed on the Model J-3410 saw is prewired for 115 volt operation . When changing the motor voltage to 230 volts, the coolant pump must be changed to 230 volt following Figure-20 or the wiring diagram on the pump lable.

J-3410-2, J-3410 specifications

Jet Tools is renowned for its high-quality woodworking and metalworking equipment, and the J-3410 and J-3410-2 drill presses are prime examples of this commitment to excellence. These machines are engineered for precision, durability, and efficiency, appealing to both hobbyists and professional craftsmen.

The J-3410 features a robust 1 HP motor that provides ample power for a variety of drilling applications. This strength enables it to handle a wide range of materials, making it versatile enough for various projects. The machine operates at five different speeds, ranging from 600 to 3,100 RPM, allowing users to select the ideal speed for the specific material and drill bit size they are using. This versatility is crucial for achieving the desired results, whether it’s delicate woodwork or tougher metals.

One of the standout features of the J-3410 is its adjustable table, which can tilt up to 45 degrees, facilitating angled drilling. The table is constructed from heavy-duty cast iron, ensuring stability and reducing vibration, which is vital for precision work. Additionally, this model comes with a built-in laser guide that provides an accurate reference point for drilling, enhancing user efficiency and accuracy.

The J-3410-2 model builds upon the features of the J-3410, offering dual laser guides for even greater precision. These guides help users easily align the drill bit, ensuring that holes are drilled exactly where intended. The dual lasers also enhance visibility, especially in low-light environments. This model also includes a larger work table, allowing for drilling operations on bigger workpieces without compromising stability.

Both models are equipped with a heavy-duty, quick-adjust depth stop. This feature allows for consistency in repetitive drilling tasks, which is essential for users who need to achieve uniform results. They also feature an easy-to-use belt and pulley system for speed changes, ensuring that the transition between different speeds is effortless.

Safety is paramount in the design of the J-3410 and J-3410-2 press. A protective on/off switch prevents accidental start-ups, while the cast iron construction enhances overall stability and reduces the likelihood of accidents during operation.

The Jet Tools J-3410 and J-3410-2 combine power, precision, and safety, making them excellent choices for anyone in need of reliable drilling equipment. Whether for professional use or personal projects, these drill presses stand out in their class, showcasing Jet's commitment to quality and innovation.
