Vertical Woodcutting Bandsaw
Introduction
The Vertical Woodcutting Bandsaw is a high­quality, precision-cutting tool. It will give you years of superior service. Naturally, you
will get maximum performance from your new woodcu­tting band saw if you
follow the instructions
in
this manual.
Before attempting to install or operate your new bandsaw, we recommend you read this manual and familiarize yourself with the details of opera­tion. Understanding the contents of the manual will help you obtain the best possible results and
achieve highest standards of accuracy.
It will also
resolve many of the problems you could encoun-
ter otherwise.
A serial number
is
stamped on the nameplate.
Please refer to this serial number
in
any communi-
cations regardi
ng
your machine, and refer to the
parts list accompanyi
ng this
manu
al
to order spe-
cific part numbered items.

Features
The vertical banosaw
is
an
easy-to- use,
cost-effectiv e
tool for producing fixtures, fur-
niture or marine woodwork. It
is
an essential piece of equipment for custom cabinet shops, boat building shops, home workshops, and the advanced hobbyist.
It gives excellent results in
cutting plastic, aluminum and similar material s, or wherever cutting curves and compound curves
is
required.

Unpacking and Cleanup
To ensure maximum performance from your wo­o
dcuttin
g bandsaw, clean it properly; a
nd
install it accurately before use. As soon as you receive
th
e bandsaw, we recom-
mend you follow these procedu
res
:
1.
In
spect packing crate for dama
ge
in transit.
Re
cord damage, a
nd
report it immediately to
shipper.
2. Carefully remove loose items, saw and
st
and,
and check that
all arrived in good condition. If not, let your industrial distributor know imme­diately.
3. Machined surfaces of band saw are protected
by a heavy coating that
mu
st be remo
ved
before machi
ne
is used. Remove protective
coating
wi
th
kerosene
or diesel oil.
DO
NOT
USE CELLULOSE-BASED
SOLVENTS; they
damage pain
t.
Also
DO
NOT USE SOL­VENTS on plastic parts; they dissolve or damage plastic.

Selecting Saw Blades
For longest blade wear and best cutting results, use correct blade thickness, width and temper for
type
of
material cut. When sawing small curves and delicate work, use narrow blades. Otherwise, use widest blade possible.
Saw blades may be purchased at any saw shop ,
welded, set and shar.pened ready for use. For
cut­ting wood and similar materials, purchase blades in widths
up
to
3/4
inch.
For longest blade wear, avoid these most common
causes
of
blade breakage:
• Poor guide alignment and adjustment
• Forcing or twisting a wide blade around a short radius
• Feeding too fast
• Dull teeth or not enough set
Too
much blade tension
• Setting top guide assembly too high above workpiece
• Lumpy or improperly finished braze or weld
on
blade
• Continuous running
of
blade when not
cutting
The saw blade when new is
931/z
inches long.
Adjustments can be made on blades from
91
1
/2
to
94 inches.
Changing Blades
To
change blades:
1. Remove upper and lower wheel guards.
2.
Release blade tens ion. See "Adjusting Blade Tension" in this manual.
3.
Remove table insert and table spreader pin at right edge of table.
4.
Slip blade off wheel, guiding it through table slot.
5.
To
install blade, reverse procedur
e.
Operating the Bandsaw
Operation
of
power tools involves a certain
amount of hazard. Before attempting regular
work, we recommend
you
get the feel of ooera-
tions, us i
ng
scrap lumber to check settings. Read
entire ins tructions
·before cutting a workpiece. Always pay attention to safety precautions to avoid inj
ury.
Before turning on power, make all adjustments.
check th
at
guard is
in
place. and turn pulley by
hand to make sure
all parts work properly. ·
Always keep top guide assembly down close to
your work.
Do
not force material against blade:
light contact permits easier cutti
ng
and prevents
unwanted friction, heating and work-hardening
on
back edge
of
blade.
If you keep saw blade sharp. little pressu
re
is
needed for cutting. Steadily move stock against
blade without forci
ng
it.
To avoid twisting the
blade, do not turn sharp corners;
sa
w arou
nd
cor-
ners.
10
Page 14
Cutting Curves
When
cutting curves, carefully turn stock so blade
follows without twisting.
If curve is so sharp that
you must repeatedly back
up
and cut new kerf,
use narrow blade
or
blade wit h more set. When blade has more set, stock turns easier but cut is rougher.
When changing a cut, avoid withdrawing work­piece, as with
dra
wing may draw blade off wheels.
Rath
er,
turn stock; and saw
out
through waste
material.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord having an equipmentgrounding conduc­tor and a grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into a matching outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all
local codes and ordmances.
Do not modify the plug provided -
if
it will not
fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by
a qualified electrician.
Improper
connection
of
the
equipment­grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. The conductor with insulation
having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the equipment­grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of
the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not
COJ1nect
the equipment grounding conductor to
a live terminal. Check with a qualified electrician or service
personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if
in
doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded.
Use only 3-wire extension cbrds that have 3-prong grounding plugs and 3-pole receptacles that accept the tool's plug.
Repair or replace damage or worn cord
immediately.
Grounded, cord-connected tools intended for use on a supply circuit having a nominal rating less than 150 volts: ·
17
This tool is intended for use on a ci
rcu
it that has an outlet that looks like the one illustrated in Sketch A in Figure
1.
The tool has a ground-
ing plug that looks like the plug illustrated
in
Sketch A in Figure 1. A temporary adapter,
which looks like the adapter illustrated in
Sketches 8 and
C,
may be used to connect this
plug
to
a 2-pole receptacle as shown in Sketch
8
if
a properly grounded outl
et
is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green-colored rigid
ear,
lug, and the like, extending from the
adapter must be connected
to
a permanent
ground such as a properly grounded outlet box.
Grounded, cord-connected tools intended for use on a supply circuit having a nominal rating between
150-250
volts, inclusive:
This tool is intended for
use
on a circuit that has an outlet that looks like the one illustrated in Sketch D
in
Figure 1. The tool has a ground-
ing plug that looks like the plug illustrated in Sketch 0 i:l Figure 1. Make sure the tool is connected to an outlet having the same
configuration as the plug. No adapter is availa­ble or should be used with this tool. If the tool must
be
reconnected for use on a different type
of
electric circuit, the reconnection should be made by qualified service personnel; and after reconnection, the tool should comply with all local codes and ordinances.
