6.2 Tools required for assembly
All tools needed for assembly are provided in the

maintenance and adjustments.
6.3 Uncrating and spotting
1. Finish uncrating the saw and inspect for
damage. Should any have occurred, contact
your local distributor. Do not discard packing
material until saw is assembled and running
satisfactorily.
2. Compare contents of shipping carton with the
contents list in this manual. Report shortages,
if any, to your distributor.
3. Remove four screws holding machine to
shipping pallet.
4. Leave any packing material between vise
clamps and bow intact until band saw has
been lifted to its final position.
5. Use lifting straps that are isolated from the
band saw’s finished surfaces and clear of any
handles or levers; lift machine and place in
desired location. For best performance, the
band saw should be located on a solid and
level foundation. Allow room for servicing and
for moving large stock around the machine
when determining location.
6. Install four leveling screws with hex nuts
(provided) into flanges on base. Place a level
on the table surface and check side-to-side
and front-to-back. Adjust leveling screws until
machine is level in both directions and tighten
nuts.
7. Clean all rust preventative from surfaces with
kerosene or cleaner/degreaser. Do not use
gasoline, paint thinner, mineral spirits, etc., as
these may damage painted surfaces. After
cleaning, apply a light coat of oil to exposed
metal surfaces.
6.4 Assembly
Install chip tray on edge of base above the two
screws (see cover photo).
Mount control panel support box to machine base,
as shown in Figure 6-1. (Note: Do not cut straps
holding cables to control panel support.)

6.5 Lubrication
The band saw is shipped with appropriate levels of
gear and hydraulic oil. The user should verify these
by checking sight glass levels before operating.
Cutting fluid or coolant must be supplied by the
operator. See sect. 11.0 for information.
