GENERAL ELECTRICAL CAUTIONS
This saw should be grounded in accordance with the National
Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances. This work should
be done by a qualified electrician. The saw should be grounded to
protect the user from electrical shock.
Caution: For circuits which are far away from the electrical
service box, the wire size must be increased in order to deliver
ample voltage to the motor. To minimize power losses and to
prevent motor overheating and burnout, the use of wire sizes
for branch circuits or electrical extension cords according to the
following table is recommended.
3. SAFETY INSTRUCTION FOR MACHINERY
1. Always wear leather gloves when handling saw b l a d e . The
operator shall not wear gloves when op e r a t i n g the
m a c h i n e .
2. All doors shall be closed, all panels replaced, a nd other
safety guards in place prior to the m a c h i n e being started
or op e r a t e d .
3. Be sure that the blades are not contact with t h e workpiece
when the motor is started. The motor s h a ll be started and
you should allow the saw to come up t o full speed before
bringing the saw blade into c on t a c t with the workpiece.
4. Keep hands away from the blade area. See Figure A.
5. Remove any cut off piece carefully while keeping y ou r
hands free of the blade a r ea .
6. Saw must be stopped and electrical supply must be cut off
before any blade replacement or adjustment of blade
support mechanism is done, or before any attempt is made
to change the drive belts or before any periodic service or
maintenance is performed on the saw.
7. Remove loose performed on the unnecessary workpieces
from area before staring machine.
8. Bring adjustable saw guides and guards as close as possible
to the workpiece.
9. Always wear protective eye wear when op e r a t i n g ,
servicing, or adjusting machinery. Eyewear shall b e
impact resistant, protective safety glasses with si d e
shields. Not using eye wear which could result in
severe injury f r o m breakage of eye protection. See
Figure B.
10. Nonslip footwear and safety shoes are r e c o mm e nd e d .
See Figure C.
11. Wear e ar protectors (plugs or muffs) during e x t e nd e d
periods of operation. See Figure D.
12. Wear mask to operate machine. See Figure E.
13. Do not smoke during operating machine. See Figure F.
14. The workpiece, or part being sawed, must be s e c u r e l y
clamped before the saw blade enters the w o r k p i e c e .
15. Remove cut off pieces carefully, keeping hands away
from saw b l a d e .
16. Saw must be stopped and electrical supply cut off o r
machine unplugged before reaching into cutting a r ea .
17. Avoid contact with coolant, especially guarding y ou r
e y e s .

ASSEMBLING RIP FENCE
1. Install the fence rail to the table. Use (1) two
M6 spring washers (2) two M6 hex head bolts
(3) two M6 flat washers.(see Figure 6)
2. Place fence base on fence rail. Slide the fence
on its guides until it is the required distance
from the blade. Push lock lever down to secure
fence in place.(see Figure 6)
3. Fix the fence face to the fence base.(see Figure
6)
4. Check the scale. Make sure the distance
between the edge of the miter slot and both
front and rear of the rip fence. Adjust to let both
distances equal.
CHANGING BLADES
1. Unplug power cord.
2. Remove the table insert and table pin.
3. Open upper and lower wheel cover.
4. Loosen the upper and lower blade guide system
and bearing.
5. Loosen quick change saw blade system lever on
rear of bandsaw.(see Figure 7)
6. Remove the blade and guide new blade through
table slot. Place blade in upper and lower ball
bearing guides system.
7. Replace blade in the MIDDLE of the upper and
lower wheel. If the blade is not in the right
position, you must relax the fixed handle and
adjust the tracking control knob.(see Figure 7)
8. Replace the table insert and table pin.
9. Adjust the blade tension and blade tracking if
the blade width is different.
ADJUSTING THE TENSION OF
BLADE
Blade tension is set by a spring loaded tension
mechanism on the upper wheel. Check the level of
the tension device before cutting. The tension for
various blade widths as indicated on the window of
upper wheel cover.
Turn the blade tension hand wheel (see Figure 8)
and see the saw tension instruction (see Figure 9)
indicated on the window of upper wheel cover.

ADJUSTING UPPER BLADE GUIDE
ASSEMBLY
1. Set the bearing of upper and lower blade guide
within approx. 0.5mm of the blade. Make sure the
bearing and the back of the blade approx. 0.5mm.
(see Figure 10 and Figure 11)
2. Do not set the bearing too close. The friction
generates heat, which may have an adverse effect
on the bearings and the saw blade.
DUST COLLECTION
The band saw is recommended to be connected to dust
collect. There are two 4” dust ports (see Figure 12) to
attach with 4” steel clamping.
SETTING THE CUTTING HEIGHT
The upper blade guide should always be set as close
practical against the work. To adjust, loosen the hand
wheel (see Figure 13) at the side of housing and see
the blade guide to the required height. Then, tighten
after setting.

SAFETY DEVICE
1. Limit switch (see Figure 14) inside the machine
body for cutting off the power while door
opening during operation.
2. The emergency stop (see Figure 15) can help
you stop the machine immediately once
dangerous situation happens.
REMINDER
Once completing assembly, please test run the machine to ensure it is properly connected to power
and safety components are functioning correctly.
If you find an unusual problem during the test run, please stop the machine immediately. Disconnect
the machine from power and fix the problem before operating the machine again.

MECHANICAL BRAKE SWITCH OPERATING INSTRUCTION
1. To start the machine: turn the switch to “2”
position, press “ON” button to start the
machine.
2. To change the saw blade: turn machine off,
turn the switch to “1” position to change the
blade.
3. To lock the machine: turn the switch to “0”
position, to lock the machine and wheel.
For emergency situation, press the emergency
switch to stop machine at any time.

11
TABLE PARALLEL ADJUSTMENT
1. Insert table pin into the table groove.(Figure 16)
2. Use the ruler gauge to put it on the table. (Figure
17) Adjust the position of table pin (adjust the
depth of the pin) and adjust the parallel of the
table by using the feller gauge. Tolerance for the
table parallel is within 0.4mm.
3. When adjusting the table, the table edge can
higher than the middle position about 0.4mm
which is acceptable. (Figure 18& Figure 19)
Edge can not lower than the middle part of the
table.
Note: Insert the table pin deeper, the middle part
of the table will be lower.
4. Follow above steps to finish the table parallel
adjustment.
Trouble Shooting:
If the table pin gets stuck, it’s because you push it too
deep. Use a round bar 5mm~ 8mm and a soft
hammer to knock the table pin out from inside of the
table. Please be aware of your fingers!
