Maintenance

Cutting Band Replacement
• The band saw is factory equipped with a band for general
use. If the job requires a different band or the band is worn
or damaged it shall need to be replaced.
• Use a 6 tpi* band for softer materials. Use a 14 tpi* for
harder materials. Keep in mind a 14 tpi* band cuts slower
because the teeth are finer and its cutting operation is
slower.
CAUTION • Before changing the blade, ensure that
the machine is off and disconnected from the wall outlet.
• To replace the band, remove the nut and the Allen hex
screw from the work table (P).
• Loosen the band tension turning the band tension knob (Q)
counterclockwise.
• Open the two cabinets (R) to gain access to the cutting
band flywheels.
• Remove the band making it pass through the work table
slot (S) and through the saw column slot (T).
• Set the replacement band setting it so that it can run in
the center of the two pulleys (U) and tense them
slightly.
• To verify where the band passes turn manually
the upper flywheel. If rectifying the band pass
through, make it with the alignment knob of the
cutting band (V).
• Adjust the cutting guides as indicated in page 8.
• Set the nut and the Allen hex screw back into the
work table (P).

Cleansing and Lubrication
• Turn off and disconnect the saw.
• With a hard bristle brush and a vacuum cleaner remove all
the dust. Pay attention to the mechanisms and in the motor
air inlet.
• Apply dry graphite lubricant or silicon in the mechanisms.
CAUTION Do not use grease or oil because they
accumulate sawdust and will hinder the mechanism
functions.
• The motor bearings are factory sealed and lubricated. Do
not need additional lubricating.
Service
• Service to the tool can only be carried out in a
Authorized Service Center. Service and
maintenance carried out by unqualified people may be
dangerous and could cause personal injuries and void the
warranty.
