  • Page 6: Introduction

    Introduction This manual is provided by Walter Meier (Manufacturing) Inc., covering the safe operation and maintenance procedures for a JET Model HBS-916W or HBS-1018W Band Saw.

  • Page 7: Uncrating And Cleanup

    Figure 2 4. Carefully lift motor and line up holes in the motor mounting plate and the motor bracket. 5. Slide motor support shaft into motor mount bracket to hold the motor in place. 6. Fasten shaft with nut and washer. 7.

  • Page 9: Controls

    To convert the HBS-916W from 115V to 230V, the following items will have to be changed: Main Motor – follow diagram inside junction box cover. Coolant Pump – Remove chip pan on front of saw, remove junction box cover on pump, and follow diagram inside junction box cover.

  • Page 10: Adjustments

    7. Material to be cut must be securely held in vise. 8. Check to see that coolant level is adequate and turn on coolant pump if material to be cut requires it. Machine should be filled with four gallons of the proper coolant mixture. Follow the directions on the product maker’s label and fill the coolant tank through the chip tray area.

  • Page 11: Adjusting Feed Rate

    Adjusting Feed Rate Rate of feed is adjusted by turning the cutting pressure control knob on the control panel. Rate of feed is important to band saw performance; excessive pressure may break the blade or stall the saw. Insufficient pressure rapidly dulls the blade.

  • Page 12: Blade Tracking Adjustment

    9. Tension blade to approximately 25,000 lbs. of blade tension, as indicated on the blade tension indicator found on the tension wheel shaft housing. 10. Attach wire brush to the wire brush post with screw and washer. Adjust wire brush post so that brush just comes into contact with blade teeth.

  • Page 13: Automatic Shut-Off Adjustment

    Automatic Shut‐Off Adjustment The motor should shut off immediately after the blade has cut through the material and just before the head comes to rest on the horizontal stop bolt. If the machine continues to run after the workpiece has been fully cut, locate and adjust the micro switch mounting plate down.

  • Page 14: Bow Weight Adjustment

    Bow Weight Adjustment Bow weight is one of the most important adjustments of the saw. If the bow weight is not set properly, one can expect poor performance, crooked cuts, tooth stripping, stalling, and the blade popping off the blade wheels. The hydraulic feed rate unit will not compensate for improper bow weight.

  • Page 15: Maintenance

    Maintenance Before doing maintenance on the machine, disconnect it from the electrical supply by pulling out the plug or switching off the main switch! Failure to comply may cause serious injury. Keep the band saw and the motor clean. If the power cord is worn, cut, or damaged in any way, have it replaced immediately.
