Electrical Connections

All electrical connections must

 

be done by a qualified electrician! Failure to

 

comply may result in loss of property and/or

 

serious injury!

 

The JWBS-16B is rated at 1-1/2 HP, 1Ph,

 

115V/230V, prewired 115V.

 

The bandsaw comes with a 115V plug (A, Fig. 22).

 

If you switch the motor to 230V a plug needs to be

 

purchased for the bandsaw that matches the 230V

 

outlet you intend to use.

 

Confirm power at the site is the same as the saw

 

before making any electrical connections. Review

Figure 22

the wiring diagram on page 30.

 

Review the Grounding Instructions, 115 Volt

 

Operation, and 230 Volt Operation sections on

 

page 7.

 

Maintenance

Keep blade guides clean and free of build up.

Do not let saw dust build up in the upper and lower wheel housings. Vacuum out frequently.

Connect the bandsaw to a JET dust collection system.

Clean and grease the raising/lowering rack for the upper blade guides if it becomes difficult to raise, or lower.

Clean, and oil the tensioning mechanism if it becomes difficult to adjust.

Vacuum out the motor fan cover.
