SECTION 1: SAFETY For Your Own Safety, Read Instruction Manual Before Operating This Machine The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your attention to possible hazardous conditions. This manual uses a series of symbols and signal words intended to convey the level of importance of the safety messages. The progression of symbols is described below. Remember that safety messages by themselves do not eliminate danger and are not a substitute for proper accident prevention measures.
WEARING PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear clothing, apparel or jewelry that can become entangled in moving parts. Always tie back or cover long hair. Wear non-slip footwear to reduce risk of slipping and losing control or accidentally contacting cutting tool or moving parts. HAZARDOUS DUST. Dust created by machinery operations may cause cancer, birth defects, or long-term respiratory damage. Be aware of dust hazards associated with each workpiece material.
Additional Safety for Bandsaws Serious cuts, amputation, or death can occur from contact with the moving saw blade during operation or if blade breakage occurs. To reduce this risk, anyone operating this machine MUST completely heed the hazards and warnings below. HAND PLACEMENT. Placing hands or fingers in line with blade during operation may result in serious injury if hands slip or workpiece moves unexpectedly.
SECTION 2: POWER SUPPLY Availability Before installing the machine, consider the availability and proximity of the required power supply circuit. If an existing circuit does not meet the requirements for this machine, a new circuit must be installed. To minimize the risk of electrocution, fire, or equipment damage, installation work and electrical wiring must be done by an electrician or qualified service personnel in accordance with all applicable codes and standards.
Circuit Requirements These machines are prewired to operate on a 220V power supply circuit that has a verified ground and meet the 220V operation requirements listed below. Models G0513, G0513ANV, G0513X2, and G0513X2F can be converted to operate on a 110V power supply (refer to Voltage Conversion instructions beginning on Page 14) that has a verified ground and meets the 220V operation requirements listed below.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding wire can result in a risk of electric shock. The wire with green insulation (with or without yellow stripes) is the equipment-grounding wire. If repair or replacement of the power cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding wire to a live (current carrying) terminal. No adapter should be used with plug.
Extension Cords Voltage Conversion We do not recommend using an extension cord with this machine. If you must use an extension cord, only use it if absolutely necessary and only on a temporary basis. The voltage conversion MUST be performed by an electrician or a qualified service personnel. Extension cords cause voltage drop, which can damage electrical components and shorten motor life.
SECTION 3: SETUP This machine presents serious injury hazards to untrained users. Read through this entire manual to become familiar with the controls and operations before starting the machine! Wear safety glasses during the entire setup process! HEAVY LIFT! Straining or crushing injury may occur from improperly lifting machine or some of its parts.

Cleanup The unpainted surfaces of your machine are coated with a heavy-duty rust preventative that prevents corrosion during shipment and storage. This rust preventative works extremely well, but it will take a little time to clean. Be patient and do a thorough job cleaning your machine. The time you spend doing this now will give you a better appreciation for the proper care of your machine's unpainted surfaces.
Site Considerations Moving & Placing Bandsaw Floor Load Refer to the Machine Data Sheet for the weight and footprint specifications of your machine. Some residential floors may require additional reinforcement to support both the machine and operator. This bandsaw is a heavy machine. Serious personal injury may occur if safe moving methods are not used. Get assistance and use power equipment to move the shipping crate and remove the machine from the shipping pallet.
Using Wood Blocks 1. Move the crate to the prepared location, then remove the crate from the shipping pallet. 2. Unbolt the bandsaw from the pallet. 3. Carefully place the forklift forks under the head and insert a 1x4 block between the head and the left fork and a 2x4 block between the head and right fork so the bandsaw is level, as shown in Figure 18. Mounting We recommend mounting your new machine to the floor. Because floor materials may vary, floor mounting hardware is not included.
Assembly 4. Loosen blade tension by rotating the quickrelease tension lever clockwise, as shown in Figure 23. Installing Guide Post Handwheel, Positive Stop Bolt, & Table 1. Secure the guide post handwheel onto the handwheel shaft flat with the included set screw (see Figure 21). Loosen Tighten Guide Post Handwheel Figure 23. Quick-release tension lever. 5. Adjust the upper and lower blade guides away from the blade. Refer to Adjusting Blade Guides beginning on Page 36 for more details. Figure 21.
The table is heavy and requires two people to lift it onto the trunnions. Remove the saw blade to make table installation easier. 8. Models G0513 and G0513ANV: Secure the table to the trunnions, as shown in Figure 24 with the (4) M8-1.25 x 16 hex bolts, 8mm lock washers, and 8mm flat washers. Installing Fence (G0513, G0513ANV, G0513X2 & G0513X2F) 1. Attach the rear rail to the table with the (2) M6-1 x 16 cap screws, as shown in Figure 25. 2.
4. Pull the fence handle up and place the fence assembly on the front rail (see Figures 27–28). Installing Fence (G0513X2B & G0513X2BF) 1. Attach the rail plates to the front rail with the (3) M6-1 x 20 cap screws, 6mm lock washers, and 6mm flat washers (see Figure 29).

5. Install the fence on the left-hand side of the blade. Installing Resaw Fence (G0513X2, G0513X2B, G0513X2BF & G0513X2F) 6. Place the fence flush against the bandsaw blade (see Figure 31). 1. Place the 8mm flat washer on the locking handle (see Figure 33), slide it through the hole in the fence, then thread the moving plate onto the end of the locking handle threads. 2.
Initial Blade Tracking Serious personal injury can occur if the machine starts while your hand is touching the bandsaw wheel during tracking adjustments. Disconnect power from the bandsaw before performing blade tracking adjustments. Blade tracking is primarily affected by the tilt of the upper wheel, known as “center tracking.” However, the alignment of both wheels plays an important part as well (see the Aligning Wheels instructions on Page 68 for more details).
6. Adjusting Positive Stop Loosen the lock lever on the back of the bandsaw (see Figure 37) so that the blade tracking knob can rotate. Blade Tracking Knob The positive stop allows the table to be quickly and accurately returned to the horizontal (0˚) position after being adjusted to a different angle. To position the positive stop: 1. DISCONNECT BANDSAW FROM POWER! 2. Adjust the blade tension until the mark on the blade tension scale is between 4 and 6. 3.
Dust Collection DO NOT operate this bandsaw without an adequate dust collection system. This saw creates substantial amounts of wood dust while operating. Failure to use a dust collection system can result in short and longterm respiratory illness. Recommended CFM at Dust Port: 400 CFM Do not confuse this CFM recommendation with the rating of the dust collector.
Power Cord Connection (G0513X2BF & G0513X2F) 3. Loosen the right strain relief on the junction box, then feed the cord into the box with enough slack in the wires to make the connections. 4. Re-tighten the strain relief around the cord. Tug on it to make sure the wires inside the box will not move. 5. Connect the incoming ground wire to the ground post, as shown in Figure 41. Serious injury could occur if you connect machine to power before completing setup process.
Test Run Once the assembly is complete, test run your machine to make sure it runs properly and is ready for regular operation. The test run consists of verifying the following: 1) The motor powers up and runs correctly, and 2) the safety disabling mechanism works correctly. If, during the test run, you cannot easily locate the source of an unusual noise or vibration, stop using the machine immediately, then review Troubleshooting on Page 60.
e. Push the OFF button in, then twist it clockwise so it pops out. When the OFF button pops out, the switch is reset and ready for operation (see Figure 43). Tensioning Blade A properly tensioned blade is essential for making accurate cuts, maximizing the life of the blade, and making other bandsaw adjustments. However, it will not compensate for cutting problems caused by too rapid of a feed rate, hardness variations between workpieces, and improper blade selection. OFF Button Figure 43.
4. Engage the blade tension quick-release lever to apply tension to the blade (see Figure 44). Blade Tension Quick-release Lever Deflection Method The deflection method is more subjective than the flutter method. Each blade deflects differently and every user must determine what "moderate pressure" means. The following are general guidelines for tensioning the blade with the deflection method. To tension the bandsaw blade: 1. DISCONNECT BANDSAW FROM POWER! 2.
Adjusting Blade Support Bearings Support bearings stop excessive backward deflection of the blade from the advancing workpiece. The proper adjustment of the support bearings is an important part of making accurate cuts and prevents damage to the blade teeth from contact with the blade guides. It is important that the distance of the support bearing behind the blade is the same as the distance of the blade guides behind the teeth gullets, which is typically about 0.016" (see Figure 46).
A. Support Bearing. Stops excessive backward blade deflection from the pressure of the advancing workpiece. Note: The flat surface of the upper support bearing faces the blade. The round edge of the lower support bearing faces the blade. B. Upper Support Bearing Shaft. Mounts the support bearing behind the blade. When the support bearing shaft cap screw is loose, move this shaft by hand to adjust the upper support bearing approximately 0.

3. Loosen the lateral rod cap screw and slide the guide block to position the blade guides approximately 0.016" behind the blade gullets, as illustrated in Figure 55. Note: The 0.016" spacing is ideal, although with larger blades it may not be possible. In such cases, adjust the guide bearings as far forward as possible to the blade gullets, and still maintain the proper support bearing spacing adjustment.
—If the distance is not the same at the front and back of the table, adjust the table until it is. 6. 4. Place a square on the table and against the back of the blade, as shown in Figure 57. The table should be perpendicular to the back of the blade. Loosen the four cap screws located on the top face of the fence (see Figures 58–59).
1. DISCONNECT BANDSAW FROM POWER! Calibrating Miter Gauge 2. Make sure the table is aligned with the blade (see Aligning Table on Page 39 for detailed instructions). The miter gauge needs to be calibrated to the blade when it is first mounted in the miter slot. 3. Install the fence and lock it in place next to the miter slot.

SECTION 4: OPERATIONS Operation Overview The purpose of this overview is to provide the novice machine operator with a basic understanding of how the machine is used during operation, so the machine controls/components discussed later in this manual are easier to understand. Due to the generic nature of this overview, it is not intended to be an instructional guide.
Disabling & Locking Switch (G0513, G0513ANV, G0513X2) The switch can be disabled and locked by inserting a padlock through the power button, as shown in Figure 63. Locking the switch in this manner can prevent unauthorized operation of the machine, which is especially important if the machine is not stored inside an access-restricted building. IMPORTANT: Locking the switch with a padlock only restricts its function. It is not a substitute for disconnecting power from the machine when adjusting or servicing.
General Overview The bandsaw is one of the most versatile wood cutting tools in the shop. It is capable of performing many different cutting functions including: Straight Cuts • • • • • • Miters Angles Compound Angles Resawing Ripping Crosscutting Workpiece Inspection Some wood workpieces are not safe to cut or may require modification before they are safe to cut.
Table Tilt Models G0513X2, G0513X2B, G0513X2BF & G0513X2F Model Tilt Specifications G0513, G0513ANV.................... 10° left, 45° right G0513X2...................................... 5° left, 45° right G0513X2B................................... 5° left, 45° right G0513X2BF................................. 5° left, 45° right G0513X2F....................................
Guide Post Fine Tune Tracking The guide post connects the upper blade guide assembly to the bandsaw. The guide post allows the blade guide assembly to move up or down so that it is as close to the workpiece as possible for safety and blade support. During setup, the blade was tracked without the machine connected to power. In this procedure, the bandsaw is turned ON to perform fine tuning of the tracking. Make small changes with the blade tracking knob as you monitor the effect on the blade tracking.
Blade Selection Selecting the right blade for the cutting task requires knowledge about blade characteristics and cutting priorities (i.e. speed, finish, etc.). Blade Terminology B C D G I Figure 68. Bandsaw blade components. A. Kerf: The amount of material removed by the blade during cutting. B. Tooth Set: The amount each tooth is bent left or right along the blade. C. Gauge: The thickness of the blade. D.
Bimetal Blade: A strip of high-speed tool steel is precision welded to a flexible carbon blade, then teeth are ground into the blade to provide good edge-holding qualities for blades taking a lot of abuse (see Figure 70). Carbon Steel Blade Alternate: An all-purpose arrangement where the teeth are bent evenly left and right of the blade. Raker: Three teeth in a recurring group—one bent left, one bent right, and then one that is not bent. The raker set is ideal for most contour cuts.
Blade Selection Chart Use the blade selection chart below as a general guide when selecting a blade for your operation.
Blade Breakage Many conditions may cause a bandsaw blade to break. Blade breakage is unavoidable in some cases, since it is the natural result of the peculiar stresses that bandsaw blades must endure. Blade breakage is also due to avoidable circumstances. Avoidable blade breakage is most often the result of poor care or judgement on the part of the operator when mounting or adjusting the blade or support guides.
Blade Changes Blade changes entail removing the existing blade from the wheel and table, installing the new blade, then properly adjusting the blade tension and tracking. Installing Blade 1. DISCONNECT BANDSAW FROM POWER! 2. Slide the blade through the table slot, ensuring that the teeth are pointing down toward the table. Note: If the teeth will not point downward in any orientation, the blade is inside-out. Remove the blade, and twist it right side-out. Removing Blade 1.
Blade Speed 3. Refer to Figure 76 to locate the correct V-belt position for the desired blade speed and move the V-belt to the indicated pulleys. The blade speed can be adjusted to 1700 or 3500 FPM. Speed adjustments are made by moving the V-belt position on the motor and wheel pulleys. BANDSAW WHEEL Most woodcutting can be performed successfully at the higher blade speeds.
Crosscutting Resawing Crosscutting is the process of cutting across the grain of wood. For plywood and other processed wood, crosscutting simply means cutting across the width of the material. Resawing (see Figure 79 for an example) is the process of cutting a board into two or more thinner boards. The maximum board width that can be resawn is limited by the maximum cutting height of the bandsaw. To make a 90˚ crosscut: 1. Mark the workpiece on the edge where you want to begin the cut. 2.
To resaw a workpiece: 1. 2. Verify that the bandsaw is setup properly and that the table is perpendicular to the blade. Use the widest blade your bandsaw will accept. Note: The blade must also be sharp and clean. 3. Install the resaw fence, set it to the desired width of cut, and lock it in place. Note: When resawing thin workpieces, set up the resaw fence in the alternate position, as shown in Figure 80, and make sure to use a push stick.
Stacked Cuts One of the benefits of a bandsaw is its ability to cut multiple copies of a particular shape by stacking a number of workpieces together. Before making stacked cuts, ensure that both the table and the blade are properly adjusted to 90°. Otherwise, any error will be compounded. 4. Make relief cuts perpendicular to the outline of your intended shape in areas where changes in blade direction could strain the woodgrain or cause the blade kerf to bind. 5.

Blade has insufficient support near cutting area. 4. Blade installed backwards. 5. Too much side pressure when feeding workpiece. 6. Wheels are out of alignment. 7. Dull or incorrect blade for workpiece. 8. Blade is bell-mouthed. 9. Fence not parallel with blade (pressure at blade backside). 10. Table top is not square with blade.
V-Belt Service Checking V-Belt To ensure optimum power transmission from the motor to the blade, the V-belt must be in good condition and properly tensioned. The belt should be free of cracks, fraying, and wear. Belt tension and condition should be checked at least every 3 months—more often if the bandsaw is used daily. To replace the V-belt: 1. DISCONNECT BANDSAW FROM POWER! 2. Open both wheel covers, and remove the blade (refer to Blade Changes on Page 51). 3.
Blade Lead "Blade Lead" means that the blade does not cut straight when using the fence or miter gauge (see Figure 94). This is a common condition with all bandsaws. Worn or damaged blades may cause lead and replacing them will fix the problem. Still, if your bandsaw is setup correctly and lead occurs, compensate for it by skewing the fence. 2. Slide the fence out of the way and cut freehand along the line. Stop at the halfway point. Turn the bandsaw OFF and wait for the blade to come to a complete stop.
Adjusting Wheel Brush Adjusting Tension Lever The lower wheel has a brush, as shown in Figure 95, that is designed to sweep sawdust off the wheel tire as the wheel rotates. In order to work properly, the brush must make firm contact with the wheel. The quick-release tension lever was setup at the factory for use with the pre-installed 131 1⁄ 2" blade.
Adjusting Guide Post Travel The guide post assembly should remain parallel with the blade front-to-back and side-to-side along its length of travel. If it does not, follow these instructions to adjust it. —If there is no gap between the square and the guide post along its full length, no adjustments need to be made. Proceed to the next procedure. —If there is a gap between the square and the guide post, the guide post is not parallel to the blade. Go to Step 4. 4.
1. DISCONNECT BANDSAW FROM POWER! 2. Loosen the guide post lock knob, lower the blade guide assembly to within 1" of the table top, then tighten the lock knob. 3. Remove the screws that secure the guide post guard and move it up and out of the way. 4. Measure the distance "A" between the upper front face of the guide post rack and the back of the blade (see Figure 99). 6. Place the guide post guard on top of the guide post assembly so you can access the guide post bracket. 7.
