• Floor Load: This machine distributes a
heavy load in a small footprint. Some
residential floors may require additional
bracing to support both machine, operator,
and material to be processed.
• Working Clearances: Consider existing and
anticipated needs, size of material to be
processed through the machine, and space
for auxiliary stands, work tables or other
machinery when establishing a location for
your bandsaw. Refer to Figure 4.
• Lighting: Lighting should be bright enough
to eliminate shadow and prevent eye strain.
• Electrical: Place the machine near a
power source to avoid long runs of power
cords strung across your shop. Refer to the
Electrical section on Page 9 for information
on minimum circuit requirements.
Cleaning Machine
The table and other unpainted parts of your
machine type are coated with a waxy grease
that protects them from corrosion during ship-
ment. Clean this grease off with a solvent clean-
er or citrus-based degreaser. DO NOT use chlo-
rine-based solvents such as brake parts cleaner
or acetone—if you happen to splash some onto a
painted surface, you will ruin the finish.
Machine Placement
NEVER clean with gasoline
or other petroleum-
based solvents. Most have
low flash points, which
make them extremely
flammable. A risk of
explosion and burning
exists if these products
are used. Serious personal
injury may occur if this
warning is ignored!
