Coolant Flow and Nozzle Position

The coolant pump must be submerged before operating to prevent damage to the pump.

Adjust the coolant flow shut-off valve at the top of the saw head weldment. The flow should be no more than the saw blade can draw into the workpiece by the movement of the blade.

The coolant flow can be stopped in two ways:

‰by the coolant selector switch (A, Fig. 4) on the control box (the preferred method)

‰by closing the shut-off valve

Note: The coolant pump is self-circulating when the shut-off valve is closed.

Setting the Work Stop

Referring to Figure 12:

The work stop is an accessory that is included with the Wilton 7015 Bandsaw. It is used to set up the saw for making multiple cuts of the same length.

Do not allow the blade to rest on the workpiece when the saw is not cutting.

Thread the stop rod (A) into the threaded opening the on the front of the saw bed (B) as shown.

Set the work stop as follows:

1.Loosen the stop arm (C).

2.Position the stop arm (C) on the stop rod (A) to obtain the desired length of cut on the workpiece (D).

3.Rotate the stop arm (C) so it contacts the end of the workpiece (D).

4.Secure the stop arm.
