If any parts are missing or broken, please call Harbor Freight Tools at the number on the cover of this manual as soon as possible. Assembly WARNING! Always make sure that the unit is off and unplugged before assembly. The Guide Bar needs (63) to be assembled to the bandsaw for proper operation. Remove the Screws (62) on the Frame (21), along with their Spring and Flat Washers (47, 46). Install the Guide Bar around the blade as shown using the Screws (62), Spring Washers (47), and Flat Washers (46). 46, 47, & 62 63 REV 06/06 Operation Warning: Never use a blade which is not in accordance with the sizes approved for this Bandsaw. If you are unsure of the blade, do not use it and contact a Harbor Freight technician at the number on the cover of this manual. Select the proper blade according to the cutting material and the diameter of the workpiece. This bandsaw comes with a 14 teeth-per-inch blade which is suitable for most applications (see below). 14 TPI - Soft/ Thick Material( aluminum, lead, rubber-like material, wood ) Other applications for 24 teeth-per-inch blades (not included) are shown below: 24 TPI - Hard/Thin Material ( cast iron, soft steel, hard steel ) Switch Operation Warning: Before plugging in the Bandsaw make sure the trigger switch on the inside upper portion of the U-shaped handle returns to it’s original position after being depressed. Test it by depressing it with your index finger and letting go. It should spring back into position if it is in working order. 1. When the trigger is pulled, the saw motor will switch on. 2. When the trigger is released, the motor stops. 3. Adjacent to the trigger is the lock button. This enables you to lock on the motor without continually depressing the trigger. To activate the lock switch, turn on the motor as explained in Step 1. While continuing to depress the trigger, engage the lock button with your other hand. Release the trigger and the motor will stay locked on. To disengage the lock button, pull the trigger again. REV 03/04 How to Cut 1. Secure your work piece to a workbench or other solid surface. 2. Make sure the cord is out of the way. 3. Set the Guide Bar (63) against the work piece. 4. Turn on the Bandsaw and allow it to come up to full speed before starting the cut. 5. Tilt the unit so that the blade is vertical as shown in Figure B. Cut objects from the flattest side, where the most teeth of the bandsaw will contact the workpiece at the beginning of the cut. Figure ATop ViewWork- piece90° 6. When the motor turns on, the blade will begin turning in a counterclockwise direction and begin cutting. Figure B 7. Do not apply force to the tool by exerting too much hand pressure or leaning into it. The weight of the tool itself creates enough force to make a clean cut. Be patient. Forcing or leaning on the tool may twist or break the blade, damaging the saw and possibly causing injury. 8. As you reach the end of your workpiece, finish off the cut by slightly raising the unit slowly, bringing the blade up. REV 06/06 How to Install a Saw Blade Warning: Make sure the trigger is unlocked and unplug the tool before installing and removing a saw blade. 1. Thoroughly clean off the saw blade with a clean, dry cloth. 2. Turn the Tension Handle (24) until it feels loose (loose position). 3. As shown on Figure C, turn over the unit and begin to install the blade as shown in #1 on Figure C. Note: The blade teeth must be pointing downward. 4. Set the blade onto one blade guide over one side of both Ring Gears (41c, 41d). 5. Insert the other side of the blade onto the other blade guide until it reaches the bearing that supports the back of the blade. 6. Hold the blade on the guides and push in as shown on numbers 2 & 3 of Figure C. Make sure the blade evenly fits around the wheels. 7. Turn the Tension Handle (24) until the blade is taut and the handle “Tight”. 8. Plug in the tool and put on your ear/eye protection, and turn on the tool. Inspect the blade and make sure it runs steady and evenly around the wheels, and that the teeth are pointed in the correct direction. Figure CRemoving a Saw Blade 1.
