IMPORTANT!!!

Read the following instructions before assembly or use of your machine. Failure to follow instructions could result in damage to the machine or injury to operator.

MOTOR INSTALLATION

Note: A 1/3 hp, 1725 RPM is recommended for proper operation. Motor pulley should be 2” to 2 1/2” diameter. Drive belt should be selected to match desired motor mounting position. Pulley and drive belt are included with the FS8-C only.

Secure motor to motor mount with bolts provided. (Fig. 1)

Place motor pulley on the motor shaft and securely tighten the set screw on flat of motor shaft. (Fig. 2)

Install belt and adjust motor to obtain correct belt tension. Do not overtighten the belt as this will lead to excessive noise and premature bearing wear. The belt should not deflect more than 1”. (Fig. 3)

Slip the blade into the saw slot at an angle (Fig. 4) and slide it onto the shaft.

Slide the second flange next to the blade and tighten the arbor nut securely (Fig. 5).

Do not over tighten as this can warp the blade.
