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.

Lubrication

All ball bearings are permanently lubricated and

sealed. They require no further attention.

The gear box lubricant should be changed after

the first 50 hours of operation. Change lubricant

from then on every 250 hours of operation.

To check level of gear box lubricant, place saw

arm in down position and allow a few minutes to

pass so that oil drains down. Check level in sight

glass on side of gear casing. Correct level is the

dot in the middle of sight glass.

To change gear box lubricant:

1. Disconnect machine from the power source.

2. Open drain plug and allow lubricant to drain

completely. Drain plug may be found on

lower front of gear case under right wheel

cover. Remove drain plug with a hex

wrench.

3. Replace drain plug.

4. Remove filler cap (A, Figure 12) and fill gear

box with Mobil DTE® Oil Heavy Medium

until level reaches dot in middle of sight

glass.

5. Replace filler cap.

6. Connect machine to the power source.

Use a light machine oil to lubricate all other

moving parts as needed.

A detailed explanation on blade selection and

blade problems and their solutions can be found

in the enclosed “Guide to Band Sawing,”

Company. Used by permission.
