Warning
1. Read and understand the entire owner's manual before attempting assembly or operation.
2. Read and understa nd the warnings pos ted on the m achine and i n this m anua l. F ailure t o com pl y with
all of these warnings may cause serious injury.
3. Replace the warning labels if they become obscured or removed.
4. This bandsaw is designed and intended for use by properly traine d and experienced per sonnel onl y.
If you are not familiar with the proper and safe operation of a band saw, do not use until proper training and knowledge have been obtained.
5. Do not use this bandsaw for other than its intended use. If used for other pur poses, JET, disclaims
any real or implied warranty and holds itself harmless from any injury that may result from that use.
6. Always wear approved s afety glasses/face shields while using th is bandsaw. Everyday eyeglasses
only have impact resistant lenses; they are not safety glasses.
7. Before operating this band saw, rem ove tie, ri ngs, watc hes and other jewe lry, an d roll s leeves up pas t
the elbows. Remove all l oos e clothing a nd conf ine lo ng hair. N on-s lip f ootwear or anti-sk id f loor strips are recommended. Do not wear gloves.
8. Wear ear protectors (plugs or muffs) during extended periods of operation.
9. Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction activities
contain chemicals k nown to cause cancer, b irth defects or other reproductive har m. Some exam ples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead based paint.
• Crystalline silica from bricks, cement and other masonry products.
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.
Your risk of exposure varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals, work in a well-ventilated area and work with approved safety equipment, such as face or dust masks that are specifically designed to filter out microscopic particles.
10. Do not operate this machine while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or any medication.
11. Make certain the switch is in the OFF position before connecting the machine to the power supply.

Saw Head

The saw head (Figure 1) consists of a drive motor, gearbox, bl ade wheels, blade gu ides and supports, control panel, blade tension mechanism, wire brush, and the saw blade.
The drive wheel is instal led on the output shaft of the gearbox. The driven wheel is located o n the left side of the machine and is m ounted on a shaft that is part of the blade tension mechan­ism. The blade tension mechanism is used to tighten the saw blade on the blade wheels.
Blade tension generall y req uir es adj us tment only after the saw blade is changed , but the tension should be monitored with the convenient blade tension indicator.

Machine Features
Figures 1 depicts t he m ain f eatures of the Mod el J-9225 Bandsaw. The machine consists of a machine base onto which is installed a saw head.

Machine Base

The machine base consists of four panels that require assembly.
Figure 1

Work Stop

A work stop is provided with the machine to allow cutting multiple pieces of identical length (refer to Figure 6). The stop consists of a s et rod onto which is installed a distance set bracket, stop rod assembly and two lock handles. The rod is installed in a b ore in the front of the saw bed. The distance set br ack et is moved in or out on the set rod to establish the length of the workpiece and the stop rod can be adjusted to accommodate workpieces of various widths.

Control Panel

The control panel is mounted on the top of the saw head. Refer to the Controls and Indicators section (page 9) for a des cripti on of the con trols. Switches and fuses required for operation and protection of the drive motor are inside the box.

Mounting Saw to Stand

Tools required for assembly:
– 8mm hex wrench Remove any plastic or holding straps from
around the bandsaw. Are as of the machine have been given a protective coating at the factory. This should be removed using a soft cloth moistened with kerosene or a cleaner­degreaser. Do not use gasoli ne, paint thin ner, or lacquer thinner as these will damage painted surfaces. Do not use an abrasive pad.
Determine the final location for the saw and allow for a sufficient work space around it.
The saw is extremely heavy.
Use a hoist to lift.
When moving the saw/stand top assembly the cutting head, or “bow”, should be in the down position.
Figure 3

Electrical Connection

All electrical connections
must be done by a qualified electrician. All adjustments or repairs must be done with the machine disconnected from the power source, unplugged. Failure to comply may result in serious injury!
The Model J-9225 bandsaw is rated at 230V. This machine is not sup plied with a plug. Use a
plug and outlet rated at least 20amps. The circuit for the mac hine should also be protected by at least a 20 amp circuit breaker or fuse.
Make sure that the blade moves in the correct direction. If it does not, simply reverse
two of the phase wires on the supply input. The sawing machine is now ready for use.

Controls and Indicators

Control Panel

The operating controls for the bandsaw are located on the control panel (Figure 4) and consist of the following controls and indicators:
Emergency Stop Switch – by depressing this switch the user can quickly stop the machine when it is in operat ion; to restart, turn clockwise slightly to release then press Start switch
Feed Rate Control – used in conjunction with the Feed Rate Start/Stop Control (see below); this knob is used to set the downward head speed that is applied to the s aw blad e. The f eed rate is proportional to the opening of the valve. When set to zero, the sa w head is locked in position. Increasing the valve open ing (counter-clockwise adjustment) increas es the feed rate; decreasing the valve opening (clockwise adjustment) reduces the feed rate.
Feed Rate Start/Stop Control – used in conjunction with the Feed Rate Control (see above); in the locked position the saw head is prevented from descending; in the unlocked position the saw head will descend at the rate determined by the Feed Rate Control setting.
Motor Speed Selector – select Low for 137 SFPM, High for 275 SFPM; machine will not operate when Off is selected.
On/Off Switch – main power switch Standby Lamp Indicator – indicates that po wer is
present, i.e., machine is plugged in and On/Off Switch in set to ON.
Start Switch – pres s to start machine, also: set On/Off Switch to ON, select Motor Speed Selector to Low or High, Emergency Stop must be released.

Blade Speeds

The Model J-9225 bandsaw has two blade speeds which are set by the Motor Speed Selector dial (D, Fig . 4). In normal operation t he machine is stopped, the speed selected (Low/High) then restarted. Changing the speed while in operation will shu t the machine off and will require restarting (E, Fig. 4).
