WORKTABLE AND TILT ADJUSTMENT
1. The standard worktable measures 26 by 26
inches (660.4 by 660.4 mm). Its load capacity is
500 pounds (226.8 kg) evenly distibuted with NO
impact.

Worktable.
2. The worktable can be tilted manually up to 10º
left and 45º right -- primarily for sawing compound
angles. The amount of worktable tilt is indicated
by a pointer and a trunnion-mounted calibrated
scale.
3. To tilt the worktable: (a) Use the wrench provided
to reach through the machine frame and under
the worktable to loosen the tilt locknut; (b) Tilt
the worktable manually until the pointer reaches
desired angle shown on the scale; (c) Tighten the
tilt locknut.
4. The worktable is drilled and tapped on three (3)
sides to attach accessory equipment. Its removable
center plate can be replaced with optional plates for
band ling and band polishing and other various
options.
WHEEL BRUSH AND CHIP REMOVAL
1. A brush, located on the lower bandwheel
approximately in the ten (10) o'clock position, cleans
metal chips from the bandwheel during machine
operation. Removed chips drop into a removable
pan in the machine base. This pan should be
emptied periodically.
DO NOT open the bandwheel doors until saw
band has completely stopped.
2. During operation, chips and other depris may
accumulate around such machine areas as saw
guides, worktable surfaces, bandwheels, slides,
etc. Remove this debris as soon as possible. The
DoALL Company recommends removing chip
collections at least twice per each eight (8) hour
shift, and more often with heavier use.
TYPICAL SAWING PROCEDURES
Set-Up
1. These procedures assume that the following
machine conditions exist: (a) The machine has
been properly installed and aligned; (b) The band
drive motor is off; (c) The proper saw band has been
installed, is correctly tracked and tensioned; (d) All
lubrication procedures have been carried out.
Procedure
1. Raise the post high enough so that the upper saw
guide can not be damaged while stock is being
loaded onto the worktable.
2. Tilt the worktable to the desired angle and lock it in
place.
3. Load stock to be cut onto the worktable. Clamp the
stock if required.
4. Lower the post until the upper saw guide is just
above the stock, but NOT touching.
5. Determine the band speed range and desired band
speed for the procedure to be undertaken. Then:
(a) Use the transmission gear shift lever to choose
between "high" and "low" band speed ranges; (b)
Push the Band Start button; (c) Turn the Band
Speed knob to the band speed desired.
6. Before starting the cut, make sure to adjust the mist
coolant spray (if supplied) onto the saw band and
cutting area.
7. Carefully move the stock toward the saw band and
begin the cut. Adjust the band speed as necessary
during the cutting procedure.
8. After the cut has been nished: (a) Turn the Band
Speed knob to its lowest speed; (b) Push the Band
Stop button; (c) Remove the piece just cut from the
worktable; (d) Reposition the stock to begin another
cut; (e) Push the Band Start button and then set
the band speed.
