General
For optimum performance from your machine, follow this
maintenance schedule:
Daily
•
Check/correct loose mounting bolts.
•
Check/correct damaged saw blade.
•
Check/correct worn or damaged wires.
•
Correct any other unsafe condition.
Monthly
•
Check for V-belt tension, damage, or wear.
•
Remove blade and thoroughly clean all built-up saw-
dust from the rubber tires on the wheels.
•
Clean/vacuum dust buildup from inside cabinet and
off motor.
Cleaning
Vacuum excess wood chips and sawdust, and wipe off
the remaining dust with a dry cloth. If any resin has built
up, use a resin dissolving cleaner to remove it. Treat all
unpainted cast iron and steel with a non-staining lubricant
after cleaning.
Table.&.Base
Protect the unpainted cast iron surfaces on the table
by wiping the table clean after every use—this ensures
moisture from wood dust does not remain on bare
metal surfaces. Keep the table rust-free with regular
applications of general lubricants.
If the table becomes difficult to tilt, remove it and
lubricate the trunnion and the slides in the trunnion base
with multi-purpose grease.
Brushes
The bandsaw is equipped with two lower brushes. The
brushes should be checked daily and cleaned when they
become dirty. There are adjustment brackets that allow
the brushes to be adjusted for bristle wear. Refer to
Adjusting.Wheel.and.Blade.Brushes on Page.50 for
adjustment details.
