8.3 Spotting the band saw
Tools required for assembly and set up:
Hoist or forklift, with straps/hooks
8mm hex wrench (provided)
Square
Remove all crating and plastic from around
machine. Remove any screws or straps holding
band saw to shipping pallet.
Exercise care when removing
machine from shipping pallet.
Install two eye bolts (F, Figure 2) to top of band saw.
Use hoist or forklift with straps/hooks to remove
machine from pallet. Straps must have a lifting
capacity greater than the band saw weight. Do NOT
place forks or straps directly beneath table or
against handles or levers.
Move band saw to its permanent location, which
should be dry and well lit, with enough space on all
sides to handle long stock or perform routine
maintenance on machine. Make sure floor is able to
support weight of machine. If desired, band saw can
be secured to floor using lag screws (not provided)
through the four holes in the base.
