Graphite impregnated polymer blade guides with roller bearing thrust guides provide quicker set-up and a cooler running blade. This bandsaw features very little setup when you first get it home but will promise years of solid heavy duty use.

Maintenance Tips

• Clean sawdust buildup daily from the blade guides, wheels, and lower cabinet to ensure smooth operation.

• Inspect and tension the blade before each use; improper tension reduces cut accuracy and wears components.

• Check blade tracking and adjust tracking knob as needed to keep the blade centered on the wheels.

• Lubricate moving parts (e.g., trunnions and elevation gears) monthly using manufacturer-recommended lubricants.

• Align the table to ensure square cuts; recalibrate after blade changes or heavy use.

• Inspect tires and guides regularly for wear or cracking—replace if damaged.

• Verify proper belt tension between motor and lower wheel; adjust to prevent slipping or strain.

• Switch to 230V operation if needed for more efficient power use (consult manual).

• Secure the stand and level the base to minimize vibration and improve cut quality.

• Use sharp, properly sized blades for material type; replace dull or damaged blades immediately.
