Resaw Guide; Blower Nozzle; Work Lamp - Powermatic 1791216K Operating Instructions And Parts Manual

NOTE: The pointer's zero position should be
tested later by cutting a straight piece of stock,
carefully measuring its width, and comparing it
to the scale reading.

Resaw Guide

Refer to Figure 32.
For resawing operations, attach the resaw guide
(HP4-A) to the fence using the knob (HP4-B)
through the slotted hole. Position the resaw
guide so that it is centered approximately with
the front edge of the saw blade.
The resaw guide offers a taller, single-point
contact surface that allows pivoting of the
workpiece in order to keep the blade on the
cutting line.

Blower Nozzle

Refer to Figures 33 and 34.
1. The air hose, which is already connected to
the saw body, should be inserted through
the hole in the stand (visible in Figure 16)
and connected to the nozzle of the air
regulator on the motor (Figure 33). Use a
lighter or match to briefly heat the end of the
hose so that it will slip over the nozzle. As it
cools, it will form a tight seal over the
nozzle.
2. Attach the plate (HP1-A) to the blade guide
assembly.
3. Connect the top end of the air hose to the
plate (HP1-A) with the M5x12 pan head
screw (HP1-D) through the cord clamp
(HP1-C). Heat the end of the hose with a
lighter or match, then push the wide end of
the nozzle (HP1-B) into the hose; the
tapered end points down toward the table as
shown.

Work Lamp

Refer to Figure 35.
The goose-neck lamp uses a medium base light
bulb (not provided) which should be 60 watts or
less. The work lamp is operated independently
of the main saw switch.
IMPORTANT: If you are using 115 volt power
for the band saw, use a standard 110 volt light
bulb. If you are using 230 volt power for the
band saw, you must use a 220 volt light bulb.
Use of a bulb not rated for
the voltage may result in shattering of the
bulb.
