Main Assembly Step 2 Line up the remaining holes in the two parts of the assembly and secure using the remaining M6 bolts, washers and nuts (20-22-25), securely tighten all fixing, see figs 03-04. Mounting the Bandsaw WARNING!! When mounting the unit, we strongly advise you get the assistance of another person because the bandsaw is heavy . Fig 03 Lift the saw on to the stand and line up the pre-drilled holes, see fig 05, secure using the eight M8 coach bolts (26) and M8 shoulder nuts (23), see fig 06.
Main Assembly Fig 13-14 Step 2 Line up the two elongated holes in the rear of the emergency stop housing with the two pre-drilled holes to the front of stand, insert one of the domed Phillips screw through the housing and while holding it in place screw on the M4 nut (21) and finger tighten. Repeat for the opposite side then fully tighten the fixings, see figs 09-10-11. A Step 3 Carefully replace the outer housing and tighten the four Phillips screws, see fig 12.
Main Assembly Step 2 Remove the table insert and table alignment pin and place safely aside, see figs 16-17. Lift the table (1), slide the blade through the table slot, see fig 18, line up the two threaded bolts to the underside of the table and lower them through the holes in the tilt quadrant assembly, see fig 19. Fig 20 18 Make sure the table is seated correctly on the tilt quadrant then screw on the two clamping knobs (18) to clamp the table (1) in position, see fig 20.
Main Assembly Step 1 Place a washer (14) over each M6x20mm bolt (12), line up the elongated holes in the front fence rail (4) with the pre-drilled holes to the front of the cast iron table (1), introduce the two M6x20mm bolts (12) through the fence rail and lightly tighten using the supplied spanner (22), see figs 27-28-29-30.
Main Assembly Fig 32-33-34 Fig 36 Adjustable guide rest 5 Step 4 Locate the M8 nut (16), and screw it onto the thread of the M8 threaded lever (9) then screw the threaded lever (9) into the threaded hole in the clamp assembly (7) mechanism and tighten the nut with a spanner, see figs 37-38.

Setting Up the Saw Fig 53 DISCONNECT THE SAW FROM THE MAINS SUPPLY! Tensioning and tracking the blade Make sure both top and bottom blade guides are well clear of the blade Open the front covers fully, giving good access to the top compartment of the saw and good visibility into the bottom compartment (see page 17). For tracking the blade first adjust all bearing guides so that they’re well clear of the blade. Check that the blade is sitting approximately in the middle of the wheels, see fig 53.
Setting Up the Saw Make sure the upper blade guide is raised as high as possible. Place a square on the table and move it up against the blade (behind the teeth), see fig 60. Fig 57-58 A Check that the blade is perpendicular to the table. If it is not, try resetting the table.
Setting Up the Saw Fig 63 Setting the Blade Guides (above table) DISCONNECT THE SAW FROM THE MAINS SUPPLY! Pointer Lower the upper blade guide to approximately 1 1/2”(38mm) above the table. Clamp in place. Loosen the butterfly screw (A),holding the guide assembly in Adjusting screw place and adjust the fore and aft position by turning the adjustment knob (B) so that the leading edges of the side guide bearings are approximately 2 mm behind the gullets of the saw blade.
Setting Up the Saw Fig 70-71 Fig 73-74 D B 2mm behind the blade Blade Guide bearings set to 0.5 thickness to the blade Thrust bearing Setting the Blade Guides (below table) IT MAY BE EASIER TO SET THE GUIDE BEARINGS IF THE CAST IRON TABLE (1) IS REMOVED, REFER TO MAIN ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS. Loosen the Hex screw (A) holding the guide bearings and move to approximately 0.5mm from each side of the blade. NOTE: A sheet of A4 of photocopy paper is approximately 0.5mm thick.
Setting Up the Saw To adjust the lower thrust bearing, loosen the butterfly screw (D), see fig 80, turn the adjusting knob (E) to move the thrust bearing approximately 2mm behind the blade, see fig 82. Re-tighten the butterfly screw (D). Fig 76-77 C When all adjustments have been made, recheck that when the blade is pressed back against the thrust bearing, both the upper and lower side guides are still behind the teeth of the saw.
Operating Instructions 9. If you are cutting long pieces of material think about sawing cutouts (i.e. a saw cut from the edge of the material to the saw line) along the saw line so that you can discard the off cuts as you progress down the saw line. in hand. Change the blade if necessary. Check the blade is not damaged; is clean, sharp, tracks properly and is correctly tensioned. 3. Set the upper blade guide to approximately 12mm (1/2”) above the height of the work piece. 10.
Changing the Saw Blade Fig 83 Fig 85-86 Tension released Lower guide bearing guards WARNING! BE VERY CAUTIOUS WHEN YOU ‘UNFOLD’ THE BLADE; IT TENDS TO ‘SPRING’ OPEN, BLADE AND TEETH GOING EVERYWHERE. Also check that the blade did not “unfold” inside out. i.e. looking at the right side front of the loop, the teeth should be on the front of the blade and pointing down. If you can’t arrive at this view, turn the blade inside out from its current position and look again.
Routing Maintenance Daily Monthly • Keep the machine clean. • Open the lower and upper door and check the condition of the tyres and the drive belt, see figs 88-8990. • Check the saw blade for missing teeth and cracks, see fig 89. • Spray oil the bare metal surfaces. Weekly • Open the top and bottom wheel covers and clean out all saw dust. • Clean impacted ‘crud’ from the tyres, apply a little oil to the screw threads of the blade and drive belt tensioners. DO NOT USE OIL near the belt.
