Unpacking

Remove the crate and packing material from the band saw except for the transport skid on the bottom. Inspect the machine for damage. Report any damage to your distributor and shipping agent.

Move the saw to its permanent working location. The site should be dry, well lit, and have enough room to handle long stock and the service and/or adjustment of the machine from any side.

Move the band saw off the skid. Clean all rust protected surfaces with a mild solvent or diesel fuel and a soft cloth. Do not use lacquer thinner, paint thinner, or gasoline. These will damage painted surfaces.
