Vertical Metal Cutting Bandsaw

Lubrication

The bearings on your bandsaw are factory lubri-
cated and sealed. Merely leave them alone unless
they need to be replaced.

When needed, brush a light coat of multi-purpose
grease on the tension leadscrew (all Models) and
guide post rack (Model G8146Z only) to maintain
smooth operation (see

Figures 44 & 45).

If the table becomes difficult to tilt, position it so
that you can brush a thin coat of multi-purpose
grease on the trunnion surface (see

Figure 46).
