Test Run

Once the assembly is complete and you have
performed the "Blade Tracking" instructions, you
need to test run the machine to continue with the
remainder of the adjustments.
If, during the test run, you cannot easily locate the
source of an unusual noise or vibration, feel free
to contact our service department for help.
Wear safety glasses dur-
ing the entire test run
process. Failure to com-
ply may result in serious
personal injury.
To test run the machine:
1.
Make sure that you have performed the
"Blade Tracking" instructions before continu-
ing with these instructions.
2. Make sure that the blade guides are moved
away from the blade and that the blade is not
touching the table or table insert.
3. Plug the machine into the power source.
4. Press the ON button. Make sure that your
hand stays poised over the switch in case
you need to quickly turn the machine OFF.
5. Listen to and watch the bandsaw for abnormal
noises or actions. The bandsaw should run
smoothly with little or no vibration or rubbing
noises. Strange or unnatural noises should
be investigated and corrected before operat-
ing the machine further—always unplug the
machine when investigating or correcting any
situation with the machine.
