if you are ai i right up to here, put your parts off to the side for the present and store your fasteners
in a suitabie place until you are ready to assemble the G1538. (An old muffin tin is ideal forthis job.)
*Note: Not all of the fasteners that are listed in the parts list are recorded here. This is because
there has been some preassembly at the factory.
VI. CLEAN-UP BEFORE ASSEMBLY
All of the unpainted surfaces on this BANDSAW, as well as a few of the painted ones, are coated
with a preservative oil - to protect them from rgstand corrosion during shipment. The best way to
remove this is with a common paint thinner (mineral spirits) and a lot of paper towels. Do not use
gasoline, lacquer thinner, or kindred products because of the extreme danger of flash fire and/or
explosion: besides, these products do not work that much faster anyway. Do not usecholorinated
solvents such as perchlorethylene; they will lift the paint and ruin the finish. Be careful while you
are working around drive line parts where the belts will go, because, invariably, any kind of
cleaner that cuts grease will, in the long run, be harmful to rubber. As you are doing this, please
pay attention to the following safety rules:
1. Work only in a well ventilated area.
2. Make certain that there are no sources of ignition anywhere in the area; pilot lights in water
heaters, clothes dryers, and the like.
3. No smoking while you are working.
4. The waste towels from the cleaning operation, while not explosive, are still quite combustible.
You must dispose of them properly so they do not constitute a fire hazard to a building,
adjoining property — or you!
When the cleaning is done, we would like to suggest that you give the unpainted parts, such as the
table top a "shot" of a rust preventative oil. This is particularly true if you will be "taking a break"
from the work for awhile.
That sums up our ideas on machine clean-up. Next, let's give a thought to where your new
bandsaw will be set up.
