4.0 About this machine and manual
The JET Models J-7020 and J-7040 Horizontal Cut-Off Band Saws are ruggedly built, precision-oriented
machines designed for either wet or dry applications. The 2-horsepower motor along with the worm gear
reduction drive train in an oil bath, transmits smooth and positive power to the blade. This drive system coupled
with the recirculating coolant system keeps the blade running cool and true, which results in longer blade life.
The blade guide system has adjustable six-point contact using a combination of bearing and carbide blocks.
The vise is a rapid acting, three jaw design.
