This machine is part of a growing Grizzly family of fine metalworking machinery. When used according to the guidelines set forth in this manual, you can expect years of trouble-free, enjoyable operation and proof of Grizzly’s commitment to customer satisfaction. The vertical metal-cutting bandsaw has a flexible continuous blade that cuts in one direction. The type of bandsaw blade to be used and the speed of the blade depends on the workpiece type, feed rate, and the form of the cut. The specifications, drawings, and photographs illustrated in this manual represent the Model G0659 when the manual was prepared. However, owing to Grizzly’s policy of continuous improvement, changes may be made at any time with no obligation on the part of Grizzly. For your convenience, we always keep current Grizzly manuals available on our website at www.grizzly.com. Any updates to your machine will be reflected in these manuals as soon as they are complete. Visit our site often to check for the latest updates to this manual! Contact Info We stand behind our machines. If you have any service questions, parts requests or general questions about the machine, please call or write us at the location listed below. Grizzly Industrial, Inc. 1203 Lycoming Mall Circle Muncy, PA 17756 Phone: (570) 546-9663 Fax: (800) 438-5901 E-Mail: [email protected] This type of bandsaw can be used for straight cuts, angular cuts, and curved or contour cuts. Straight cuts are made by clamping the workpiece in a stationary position and using the gravity feed to move the blade through the workpiece. Adjustments can be made to fine tune the blade feed speed and pressure. Angular cuts are made in a similar fashion with the workpiece clamped to the miter, which is rotated shown by the miter scale. Contour cuts are made by removing the vise and locking the blade in the forward position. This locates the blade in the center of the table and allows the workpiece to be fed into and around the blade while remaining well supported by the table. The blade is supported by upper and lower bearing blade guides that keep the blade from wandering during the cut. The efficiency of the cutting operation can be easily checked by examining the shape and color of the metal chips produced during cutting.

BLADE CONDITION. Do not operate with a dull, cracked or badly worn blade that can break during operation or decrease the performance of the bandsaw. Inspect blades for cracks and missing teeth before each use. 2. BLADE REPLACEMENT. Wear gloves to protect hands and safety glasses to protect eyes when replacing the blade. When installing the new blade, make sure teeth face forward and down toward the table in the direction of blade travel. 3. WORKPIECE HANDLING. Your hands can be drawn into the blade during operation if the workpiece moves unexpectedly. Always keep your hands a safe distance away from the moving blade. 4. CUTTING FLUID SAFETY. Cutting fluids are poisonous. Always follow manufacturer’s cutting-fluid safety instructions. Pay particular attention to contact, contamination, inhalation, storage and disposal warnings. Spilled cutting fluid invites slipping hazards. Like all machinery there is potential danger when operating this machine. Accidents are frequently caused by lack of familiarity or failure to pay attention. Use this machine with respect and caution to lessen the possibility of operator injury. If normal safety precautions are overlooked or ignored, serious personal injury may occur. -8- 5.FIRE HAZARD. Pure magnesium burns easily. Cutting magnesium with a dull blade can create enough friction to ignite the small magnesium chips. Avoid cutting magnesium if possible. 6. ENTANGLEMENT HAZARDS. Always keep the blade guard correctly positioned and wheel doors closed and secured when bandsaw is in operation. Loose clothing, jewelry, long hair and work gloves can be drawn into working parts. 7. MAINTENANCE/SERVICE. All inspections, adjustments, and maintenance are to be done with the power OFF and the power disconnected. Wait for all moving parts to come to a complete stop. 8. Hot Surfaces. Be aware that contact with hot surfaces from machine components, ejections of hot chips, swarf and workpiece can cause burns. 9. EXPERIENCING DIFFICULTY. If at any time you are experiencing difficulties performing the intended operation, stop using the machine! Contact our Technical Support Department at (570) 546-9663. No list of safety guidelines can be complete. Every shop environment is different. Always consider safety first, as it applies to your individual working conditions. Use this and other machinery with caution and respect. Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury, damage to equipment, or poor work results. G0659 9" x 14" Vertical Metal-Cutting Bandsaw SECTION 2: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS 220V Single-Phase Serious personal injury could occur if you connect the machine to the power source before you have completed the set up process. DO NOT connect the machine to the power source until instructed to do so. Grounding In the event of an electrical short, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock. The grounding wire in the power cord must be properly connected to the grounding prong on the plug; likewise, the outlet must be properly installed and grounded. All electrical connections must be made in accordance with local codes and ordinances. Amperage Draw Electrocution or fire could result if this machine is not grounded correctly or if your electrical configuration does not comply with all applicable codes. Ensure compliance by checking with a qualified electrician! The Model G0659 motor draws the following amps under maximum load: Motor Draw............................................... 8 Amps Power Supply Circuit Requirements We recommend connecting your machine to a dedicated and grounded circuit that is rated for the amperage given below. Never replace a circuit breaker on an existing circuit with one of higher amperage without consulting a qualified electrician to ensure compliance with wiring codes. If you are unsure about the wiring codes in your area or you plan to connect your machine to a shared circuit, consult a qualified electrician. Minimum Circuit Size.............................. 15 Amps Plug/Receptacle Type Recommended Plug/Receptacle....... NEMA 6-15 Extension Cords We do not recommend the use of extension cords. Instead, arrange the placement of your equipment and the installed wiring to eliminate the need for extension cords. If you find it absolutely necessary to use an extension cord at 220V with your machine: •Use at least a 14 gauge cord that does not exceed 50 feet in length! •The extension cord must also contain a ground wire and plug pin. • A qualified electrician MUST size cords over 50 feet long to prevent motor damage. Figure 1. NEMA 6-15 plug and receptacle. G0659 9" x 14" Vertical Metal-Cutting Bandsaw -9- SECTION 3: SETUP Setup Safety Inventory After all parts have been removed from the packaging, you should have the following items: This machine presents serious injury hazards to untrained users. Read through this entire manual to become familiar with the controls and operations before starting the machine! Wear safety glasses during the entire set up process! The Model G0659 is a heavy machine. DO NOT over-exert yourself while unpacking or moving your machine—get assistance. Main Components: (Figure 2) Qty A.

B Unpacking The Model G0659 was carefully packed when it left our warehouse. If you discover the machine is damaged after you have signed for delivery, please immediately call Customer Service at (570) 546-9663 for advice. Save the containers and all packing materials for possible inspection by the carrier or its agent. Otherwise, filing a freight claim can be difficult. When you are completely satisfied with the condition of your shipment, you should inventory the contents. -10- D C E F H J I G Figure 2. Inventory. NOTICE Some components on the inventory list may arrive pre-installed on the machine. Check these locations before assuming that any items from the inventory list are missing. G0659 9" x 14" Vertical Metal-Cutting Bandsaw Clean Up The unpainted surfaces are coated with a waxy oil to prevent corrosion during shipment. Remove this protective coating with a solvent cleaner or degreaser, such as shown in Figure 3. For thorough cleaning, some parts must be removed. For optimum performance from your machine, clean all moving parts or sliding contact surfaces. Avoid chlorine-based solvents, such as acetone or brake parts cleaner that may damage painted surfaces. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions when using any type of cleaning product. Site Considerations Floor Load Refer to the Machine Data Sheet for the weight and footprint specifications of your machine. Some residential floors may require additional reinforcement to support both the machine and operator.

C-clamp vise. -18- G0659 9" x 14" Vertical Metal-Cutting Bandsaw Cutting Depth To adjust the depth of cut: 1. Use the saw release lever to move the saw to the desired depth-of-cut, then adjust the stop clamp so that it is snug against the saw frame stop. This will prevent the saw from moving beyond that point (Figure 21). Feed Rate The feed rate is the rate at which the saw frame travels. On the Model G0659, the feed rate is controlled hydraulically by a knob on the control panel. The optimal feed rate depends on the type and dimensions of stock being cut as well as the blade being used. The optimal feed rate is determined by observing the chips produced by the cut, as described on Page 33. To adjust the feed rate: 1. Stop Clamp Saw Release Lever Be sure the saw is at the start position by pushing the saw release lever all the way down (Figure 22). Saw Release Knob Figure 21. Depth of cut adjust. Saw Release Lever NOTICE This bandsaw will damage the vise and table if the depth of cut and saw frame stop are not properly adjusted. Before making any cuts, check that the blade will not contact the table or vise when it is positioned all the way forward. Feed Rate Control Knob Figure 22. Adjusting feed rate. 2.Rotate the feed rate control knob to "0". This will prevent the saw frame from moving. 3.Turn the saw release knob to the left, then lift the saw release lever to release the saw frame. 4.Slowly turn the feed rate control knob counterclockwise to increase the feed rate. G0659 9" x 14" Vertical Metal-Cutting Bandsaw -19- Feed Pressure Guide Post The force with which the saw moves through the workpiece is the feed pressure. On the Model G0659, the feed pressure is controlled by a counterweight mechanism located on the base of the machine. The optimal feed pressure depends on the type and dimensions of the stock being cut as well as the blade being used. The optimal feed pressure is best determined by observing the chips produced by the cut, as described on Page 33. The guide post assembly is used for two purposes: 1) To properly position the blade guard to protect the operator from the exposed blade between the workpiece and the upper wheel housing, and 2) to position the upper blade guides close to the workpiece for blade support. To adjust the feed pressure: 1.Loosen the counterweight lock knob, then slide the counterweight. Moving the counterweight toward the front of the machine increases feed pressure while moving the counterweight towards the back of the machine decreases feed pressure (Figure 23). Counterweight In order to cut accurately and safely, position the bottom of the upper blade guides approximately ½" above the workpiece when the saw frame is at its lowest point. This positioning provides the greatest blade support and minimizes the amount of blade exposed to the operator during operation. To properly position the guide post: 1.DISCONNECT BANDSAW FROM POWER! 2. Support the guide post with one hand and loosen the lock knob with the other until the guide post slides freely (Figure 24). Lock Knob Lock Knob Increase Decrease Figure 23. Adjusting feed pressure. 2.Once the counterweight is positioned, tighten the lock knob. -20- Figure 24. Guide post. 3. Position the bottom of the upper blade guides approximately ½" above the workpiece when the saw frame is at is lowest point, then retighten the lock knob to secure the setting. G0659 9" x 14" Vertical Metal-Cutting Bandsaw Adjusting Saw Frame Stop The saw frame stop controls the overall forward movement of the saw frame. The proper setting will ensure that the blade cuts completely through the workpiece without cutting into the table or the vise. Adjust the frame saw stop whenever the blade is changed, fails to cut completely through the workpiece, or contacts the vise. To adjust the saw frame stop: 1. Make sure the blade tracks properly and is correctly tensioned. 2. DISCONNECT BANDSAW FROM POWER! 3.Remove the stop clamp, turn both hydraulic knobs on the control panel counterclockwise to release the saw frame, then lift the saw release lever to bring the saw frame all the way forward. The saw frame will come to rest on the saw frame stop (Figure 25). Locking Blade To lock the blade in the forward position: 1. Remove the stop clamp, then release the saw frame by lifting the saw release lever. Allow the saw frame to move all the way forward, as shown in Figure 26. Saw Release Lever Stop Clamp Figure 26. Saw frame moved forward. 2. Place the stop clamp behind the saw frame rest, as shown in Figure 27. Saw Frame Rest Stop Clamp Lock Nut Saw Frame Stop Figure 25. Saw frame stop. 4.Loosen the lock nut on the saw frame stop, then turn the saw frame stop as needed to position the blade as close to the vise as possible without touching it. This is the ideal saw frame stop position. 5. Figure 27. Saw frame locked forward. 3. Slide the stop clamp forward against the saw frame rest. Apply pressure to secure the saw frame in the forward position, then tighten the stop clamp knob. Without turning the saw frame stop, tighten the lock nut. G0659 9" x 14" Vertical Metal-Cutting Bandsaw -21- Blade Selection Blade Length Selecting the right blade for the cut requires a knowledge of various blade characteristics. Measured by the blade circumference, blade lengths are usually unique to the brand of your bandsaw and the distance between the wheels. The Model G0659 uses a 120" blade. Blade Terminology Blade Width Measured from the back of the blade to the tip of the blade tooth (the widest point), blade width is often the first consideration given to blade selection. Blade width dictates the largest and smallest curve that can be cut, as well as how accurately it can cut a straight line—generally the wider the blade, the straighter it will cut. The Model G0659 uses a 1⁄4"–1" wide blade. A B C D E F Always pick the blade width that best suits your operation. H G I Figure 28. Bandsaw blade terminology. A. Kerf: The amount of material removed by the blade during cutting. B. Tooth Set: The amount each tooth is bent left or right from the blade. C. Gauge: The thickness of the blade. D. Blade Width: The widest point of the blade measured from the tip of the tooth to the back edge of the blade. E. Tooth Rake: The angle of the tooth face from a line perpendicular to the length of the blade. F. Gullet Depth: The distance from the tooth tip to the bottom of the curved area (gullet). Curve Cutting: Use the chart in Figure 29 to choose the correct blade for curve cutting. Determine the smallest radius curve that will be cut on your workpiece and use the corresponding blade width. The list below serves as a general guideline for the minimum radius curve that can be cut by common blade widths. The actual radius will vary depending on the materal being cut and its thickness, of the workpiece. . . . . . . . Width Radius 3 ⁄16".................................... 3⁄8" 1 ⁄4''..................................... 5⁄8'' 3 ⁄8''..................................... 11⁄4'' 1 ⁄2''..................................... 21⁄2'' 5 ⁄8''..................................... 33⁄4'' 3 ⁄4''..................................... 51⁄2'' 1''...................................... 71⁄2'' Figure 29.

I. -22- TPI: The number of teeth per inch measured from gullet to gullet. G0659 9" x 14" Vertical Metal-Cutting Bandsaw Tooth Set Tooth Type Three common tooth sets are standard, wavy, and raker (see Figure 30), each removing material in a different manner to make the kerf in the workpiece. The most common tooth types are described below and illustrated in Figure 31. Standard or Raker: Equally spaced teeth set a "0" rake angle. Recommended for all purpose use. HiVcYVgYdgGV`Zg KVg^VWaZE^iX]KE Alternate Wavy Raker Figure 30. Bandsaw tooth sets. Alternate: An all-purpose arrangement of bending the teeth evenly left and right of the blade. Generally used for milder metals. Wavy: Generally three or more teeth in a group that are bent one way, followed by a non-set tooth, then another group bent the other way. Recommended for straight cuts in thin metals or thin-wall tubing. Raker: Three teeth in a recurring group—one bent left, next one bent right, and then a non-set tooth. The raker is ideal for most contour cuts. KVg^VWaZE^iX]Edh^i^kZGV`Z =dd`dg8aVl H`^edgH`^eIddi] Figure 31. Bandsaw blade tooth types. Variable Pitch (VP): Varying gullet depth and tooth spacing, a "0" rake angle, excellent chip removing capacity, and smooth cutting. Variable Pitch with Positive Rake: Varying gullet depth and tooth spacing, a positive rake angle, better chip formation, and aggressive cutting. Hook or Claw: Wide gullets (round or flat), equally spaced teeth, positive rake angle, and fast cut with good surface finish. Skip or Skip Tooth: Wide, flat gullets, a "0" rake angle, equally spaced teeth, and recommended for non-ferrous materials. G0659 9" x 14" Vertical Metal-Cutting Bandsaw -23- Blade Pitch (TPI) The chart below is a basic starting point when choosing blade type based on teeth per inch (TPI) for variable tooth pitch blades and standard raker set bi-metal blades/HSS blades. However, for exact specifications of bandsaw blades that are correct for your operation, contact the blade manufacturer. To select the correct blade pitch: 1. Measure the material thickness. This measurement is the length of cut taken from where the tooth enters the workpiece, sweeps through, and exits the workpiece. 3.In the applicable row, read across to the right and find the column of the material you are cutting. Listed in the box is the minimum TPI recommended for the variable tooth pitch blades. 4.Read towards the bottom of the column to the "F.P.M." row. This figure is the recommended feet per minute blade speed for the material you are cutting. Refer to the speed chart on the machine or Changing Speeds, Page 30, to adjust the Model G0659 to the closest appropriate speed. 2.Refer to the left-most column of the cutting speed recommendation chart in Figure 32, and read down to find the workpiece thickness you need to cut. Figure 32. General guidelines for blade selection and speed chart. -24- G0659 9" x 14" Vertical Metal-Cutting Bandsaw Blade Breakage Many conditions may cause a bandsaw blade to break. Blade breakage is unavoidable, in some cases, since it is the natural result of the peculiar stresses that bandsaw blades must endure. Blade breakage is also due to avoidable circumstances. Avoidable blade breakage is most often the result of poor care or judgement on the part of the operator when mounting or adjusting the blade or support guides. The most common causes of blade breakage are: • Faulty alignment or adjustment of the blade guides. • Forcing or twisting a wide blade around a short radius. • Feeding the workpiece too fast. •Dull or damaged teeth. •Over-tensioned blade. •Top blade guide assembly set too high above the workpiece. Adjust the top blade guide assembly so that there is approximately ½" between the bottom of the assembly and the workpiece. •Using a blade with a lumpy or improperly finished braze or weld. • Continuously running the bandsaw when not in use. •Leaving the blade tensioned when not in use. •Using the wrong pitch (TPI) for the workpiece thickness. The general rule of thumb is to have not less than two teeth in contact with the workpiece at all times during cutting. G0659 9" x 14" Vertical Metal-Cutting Bandsaw Blade Care & Break-In Blade Care A bandsaw blade is a delicate piece of steel that is subjected to tremendous strain. You can obtain longer use from a bandsaw blade if you give it fair treatment and always use the appropriate feed rate for your operation. Be sure to select blades with the proper width, set, type, and pitch for each application. The wrong choice of blades will often produce unnecessary heat and will shorten the life of your blade. A clean blade will perform much better than a dirty blade. Dirty or gummed up blades pass through the cutting material with much more resistance than clean blades. This extra resistance also causes unnecessary heat. Blade Break-In The sharp teeth tips and edges of a new blade are extremely sharp, and cutting at full feed rate may cause fracturing of the beveled edges of the teeth and premature blade wear. To properly break-in a new blade: 1. Choose the correct speed for the blade and material of the operation. 2.Reduce the feed pressure by half for the first 50–100 in2 of material cut. 3.To avoid twisting the blade when cutting, adjust the feed pressure when the total width of the blade is in the cut. 4.Use the Chip Inspection Chart on Page 33 to check the blade efficiency. -25- Blade Tensioning NOTICE To prolong blade life, release the tension on the blade if the machine will be idle for an extended period of time. Note: Make sure the blade tracks next to, but not touching, the upper wheel flange as you rotate the upper wheel by hand. 5. Close the upper wheel door and reposition the guide post. Blade Changes Proper blade tension reduces the risk of blade breakage and improves cutting performance. To correctly tension the blade: 1.DISCONNECT BANDSAW FROM POWER! 2.Open the upper wheel door, and raise the blade post and upper blade guide assembly to the highest position. 3. Check the side-to-side deflection of the blade midway between the upper blade guide and the table. The proper amount of deflection should be approximately 3⁄8" when moderate pressure is applied (see Figure 33). Note: The quickest and easiest way to check blade tension is to use the Model H5408 Blade Tensioning Gauge (refer to Page 34) Always disconnect power to the machine when changing blades. Failure to do this may result in serious personal injury. All saw blades are dangerous and may cause personal injury. To reduce the risk of injury, wear heavy leather gloves when handling saw blades. To replace the blade: 1.DISCONNECT BANDSAW FROM POWER! 6eegdm^bViZan($- 7aVYZ9Z[aZXi^dc 2.Open the upper wheel doors. 3.Release tension on the blade by rotating the tensioning handwheel. 4.Put on heavy gloves, then slide the blade off the upper and lower wheels. Figure 33. Blade deflection when correctly tensioned. 4. Make small adjustments to the blade tensioning handwheel, then rotate the top wheel by turning the gearbox pulley several times before checking the blade deflection again. Repeat this step until you are satisfied. -26- 5.Install a new blade in reverse order. Before returning the saw to use, be sure to properly tension the blade, check the tracking, and break it in. Note: Make sure the teeth are pointing down toward the table. If the teeth will not point downward in any orientation, the blade is inside out. Remove the blade and twist it right side-out. G0659 9" x 14" Vertical Metal-Cutting Bandsaw Adjusting Blade Guides Note: In most cases, the only adjustment necessary is to adjust the guide bearing eccentric spindles. This adjustment is outlined in Steps 4–6 below. If the proper positioning cannot be accomplished by turning the eccentric spindles, you must re-position the lower and upper blade guide assemblies, as outlined later in this section. Tools Needed: Qty Hex Wrench 4mm............................................... 1 Slotted Screwdriver............................................ 1 The blade guides provide side-to-side support to help keep the blade straight while cutting. Properly adjusted blade guides are essential to making accurate cuts. 4.Loosen set screws C (Figure 35). Set Screws C The ideal blade guide position on the Model G0659 accomplishes the following: •The blade guides exert enough force on the blade to hold it parallel to the path of the cut. Square •The blade is held square to the table. •The blade is supported during operation by the flanges on the blade guides, but does not ride directly upon them. •The blade is not forced to bend excessively as it passes through the blade guides. Upper and Lower Guide Bearing Adjustment 1. Make sure the blade tracks properly and is correctly tensioned. 2. DISCONNECT BANDSAW FROM POWER! 3. Familiarize yourself with the blade guide controls shown in Figure 34. Figure 35. Blade squared. 5. Adjust the blade guides by turning the slotted eccentric spindles as necessary so the blade is held flat between the blade guide wheels but not so tight that the blade must bend between them (Figure 36). Make sure the blade remains square to the table. ;GDCIK>:L IDEK>:L 8DGG:8I Set Screw B Set Screws C >C8DGG:8I IDDI><=I IDDADDH: Figure 36. Blade guide wheel position.

While still holding the blade guide assembly in position as described in Step 6, slide the blade guide assembly in or out as necessary so the roller guide flange is directly behind, but not touching the back of the blade, then tighten set screw B (Figure 40). Blade Tracking Assembly "Blade Tracking" refers to how the blade rides on the wheels. When tracking correctly, the blade rides just next to, but not touching the wheel flange. Blade tracking is primarily controlled by adjusting the upper wheel tilt. Adjusting the upper blade guide assembly follows the same procedure as adjusting the lower blade guide assembly. The additional consideration is that the upper blade guide assembly must also hold the blade square to the table. Another way to track the blade is known as "Coplanar Tracking." Coplanar tracking involves aligning the wheels so they are parallel and aligned (see Wheel Alignment on Page 40). When wheels are coplanar, vibration and heat are reduced during operation. Upper Blade Adjustment Guide To position the upper blade guide assembly: 1. DISCONNECT BANDSAW FROM POWER. 2. Loosen set screws A, B, and C on the upper blade guide assembly. 3. Wearing gloves, hold the blade square to the table. Rotate the eccentric shaft (Figure 39) so the blade guide assembly is centered over the blade, as shown in Figure 41, then tighten the cap screw located in the bottom of the guide post. Blade Blade tracking on the Model G0659 must be adjusted with the saw running. To reduce the risk of serious injury, keep hands clear from all moving parts and touch only the parts indicated in the following instructions. In addition, wear eye protection whenever the machine is running. To adjust the blade tracking: 1. Open the upper wheel cover and familiarize yourself with the wheel, the wheel flange, the blade, and the relationship between the blade and wheel flange (Figure 42).

Lift up on the motor to release tension from the belt. While still lifting the motor, reposition the belt in the desired position, then carefully lower the motor. 7.Tighten the cap screws, then recheck the blade tracking. If the tracking needs further adjustment, repeat Steps 4-7 until the tracking is correct. 9. Close the upper wheel cover. Note: For the best performance from your saw, regularly maintain proper blade tracking. 3.Remove the right side access cover to expose the motor, gearbox, belt and pulleys. 5.Turn the belt by hand to make sure it is properly seated in the pulley grooves. 6.Replace the right side access cover. NOTICE Changes in the blade tension may change the blade tracking. -30- G0659 9" x 14" Vertical Metal-Cutting Bandsaw Workpiece Inspection Cutting Tips Some metal workpieces are not safe to cut with a vertical metal cutting bandsaw; instead, a different tool or machine should be used. Keep the upper blade guides adjusted to approximately ½" above the workpiece when the saw frame is at its lowest point to provide proper support for the blade during cutting operations. Before cutting, inspect the material for any of the following conditions and take the necessary precautions: •Replace, sharpen, and clean blades as necessary. Make adjustments periodically to keep the saw running in top condition. Small or Thin Workpieces: Small or thin workpieces are dangerous to cut if held by hand—avoid cutting these workpieces if possible. If you must cut a small or thin workpiece, attach it to or clamp it between larger scrap pieces that will both support the workpiece through the cut and keep your fingers away from the blade. Some thin sheet metals will not withstand the forces from this bandsaw during cutting; instead, use a shear, nibblers, or sheet metal nippers to cut these pieces. •Use light and even pressure while cutting. Light contact with the blade makes it easier to follow lines and prevents extra friction. • • Round/Unstable Workpieces: Workpieces that cannot be properly supported or stabilized without a vise or jig should not be cut on a vertical metal-cutting bandsaw. Examples are chains, cables, round or oblong-shaped workpieces, workpieces with internal or builtin moving or rotating parts, etc. • Material Hardness: Always factor in the hardness of the metal before cutting it. Hardened metals will take longer to cut, may require lubrication, and may require a different type of blade in order to efficiently cut them. • Tanks, Cylinders, Containers, Valves, Etc: Cutting into containers that are pressurized or contain gasses or liquids can cause explosions, fires, caustic burns, or machine damage. Avoid cutting any of these types of containers unless you have verified that the container is empty and it can be properly supported during a cut. • Magnesium: Pure magnesium burns easily. Cutting magnesium with a dull blade can create enough friction to ignite the small magnesium chips. Avoid cutting magnesium if possible. G0659 9" x 14" Vertical Metal-Cutting Bandsaw • • Avoid twisting the blade when cutting around tight corners. Use the proper width of blade for the radius of the corner and make relief cuts. • Misusing the bandsaw or using incorrect techniques is unsafe and results in poor cuts. Remember—the blade does the cutting with the operator's guidance. •Never start a cut with the blade in contact with the workpiece, and do not start a cut on a sharp edge of the workpiece. •Pay attention to the characteristics of the chips when cutting—they are good indicators of proper blade speed and feed rate. Figure 45 on Page 33 shows the basic chip characteristics and what they mean. -31- Straight Cuts Freehand Cuts Once you have familiarized yourself with all of the adjustments necessary for making safe and accurate straight cuts, proceed through the following instructions to perform the cut: To create freehand cuts with the Model G0659, the saw frame must be locked in the forward position and the table must be cleared to allow the workpiece to move freely around the blade. 1. To prepare the G0659 for freehand cuts: Verify that the blade tension (Page 26) and blade tracking (Page 29) are correct. 2. Adjust the vise clamp to the desired angle. 3. Adjust the depth of cut. 4. Clamp the workpiece into the C-clamp vise. If possible, first use a scrap piece similar to your final workpiece. This will allow you to make the needed adjustments before cutting your actual workpiece. 5. Be sure that the saw frame is at the start position by pushing the saw release lever all the way down. 6.Turn the frame release knob to the right (OFF). 7.Turn feed rate knob to "0". 8.Turn the motor ON. 9.Turn the frame release knob to the left (ON). 10.Lift the release lever. 11.Slowly increase the feed rate to feed the saw into the workpiece. DO NOT apply pressure by pulling up on the saw release lever. 12. When the cut is complete, turn OFF the motor and allow the blade to come to a stop. 13.Lower the saw release lever to return the blade to the starting position and turn the frame release knob to the right (OFF). 1. DISCONNECT BANDSAW FROM POWER! 2.Remove the vise and clamp from the table (Page 18). 3.Lock the blade in the forward position (Page 21). 4. Make sure the blade you are using is the proper width for any curves you are planning to cut. Refer to the minimum radii table on Page 22. 5. Connect the bandsaw to power. When cutting curves, simultaneously feed and turn the stock carefully so the blade follows the layout line without twisting. If a curve is so abrupt that it is necessary to repeatedly back up and cut a new kerf, use a narrower blade, a blade with more TPI (teeth per inch), or make more relief cuts. Relief cuts are made through the waste portion of the workpiece and stop at the layout line. Relief cuts reduce the chance that the blade will be pinched or twisted during the cut. ELECTROCUTION HAZARD This bandsaw is not designed to be used with water soluble cutting fluid or coolant. If needed, use a small amount of oil-based lubricant. 14. Inspect the cut as described in the Chip Inspection Chart on Page 33, and make any necessary adjustments. Make additional test cuts if necessary. -32- G0659 9" x 14" Vertical Metal-Cutting Bandsaw chip inspection chart i]^cXjgaZY Chip Inspection Chart i]^cXjgaZY i]^cXjgaZY The best method of evaluating the performance of your cutting operation is to inspect the chips that are i]^cXjgaZY h]dgi!]VgYi]^X` formed.

Failure to do this may result in serious personal injury. Schedule For optimum performance from your machine, follow this maintenance schedule and refer to any specific instructions given in this section. Daily: • Check/correct loose mounting bolts. • Check/correct damaged or dull saw blade. • Check/correct worn or damaged wires. • Clean/protect table. • Clean metal chips from upper and lower wheel areas, and empty bottom chip tray. • Correct any other unsafe condition. Monthly: • Check for V-belt tension, damage, or wear. •Lubricate the tension leadscrew and guide post. • Remove the blade and clean the wheels. • Clean and grease the rails on which the saw frame moves. •Lubricate the pivot points of all levers. • Check gearbox oil level. Yearly: •Drain & refill gearbox. Use a brush and a shop vacuum to remove chips and other debris from the machine. Keep the table rust-free with regular applications of products like G96® Gun Treatment, SLIPIT®, or Boeshield ® T-9. Once a month, remove the blade and thoroughly clean all metal chips or built-up grease from the wheel surfaces. Redress the rubber tires if necessary. Redressing Rubber Tires As the bandsaw ages, the rubber tires on the wheel may need to be redressed if they become hardened or glazed over. Redressing the rubber tires improves blade tracking and reduces vibration/blade lead. If the rubber tires become too worn, then blade tracking will become extremely difficult. At that point, redressing will no longer be effective, and the rubber tires must be replaced. To redress the rubber tires: 1.DISCONNECT BANDSAW FROM POWER! 2.Put on heavy gloves and remove the blade. 3.Use a brush and shop vacuum to clean any chips from the rubber tires. 4.Lightly sand the circumerence of both the upper and lower wheel with 100 grit sandpaper. Only redress the rubber enough to expose a fresh rubber surface. G0659 9" x 14" Vertical Metal-Cutting Bandsaw -35- Lubrication Bearings The bearings on your bandsaw are factory lubricated and sealed. Leave them alone unless they need to be replaced. Blade Tension Leadscrew When needed, brush a light coat of multi-purpose grease on the tension leadscrew and guide post to maintain smooth operation (see Figure 49). Gearbox (Figure 51) Use a mirror to inspect the oil level through the sight glass. If the level is low, inspect for leaks and replace seals if necessary, then refill to the level indicated on the sight glass. Change gear box oil by removing the drain plug on the lower edge of the gear box (out of view). Replace the drain plug and refill through the fill cap with SAE-90 oil. Fill to the mark indicated on the sight glass. Sight Glass Location Fill Cap (On Top Of Gearbox) Mirror Sight Glass Reflection Drain Plug Location (Hidden From View) Figure 51. Gearbox lubrication. Figure 49. Tension leadscrew and guidepost. Chip Tray Saw Release Lever Mechanism Grease the pivot points of all of the levers associated with the saw release lever and the counterweight mechanism, and clean and lubricate the saw frame rails (Figure 50). The chip tray catches most of the metal chips produced during cutting and must be periodically removed and cleaned to avoid a buildup of waste material and potential corrosion. To remove the chip tray: 1. Pull the tray out of the front of the machine. Remember that the metal chips in the tray may add significant weight to the tray and make it difficult to slide out. 2.Using help, if necessary, lift the tray and dispose of the metal chips. Use a brush to sweep away any chips still left in the tray, then lightly coat the tray with a spray rustinhibitor such as Boeshield™ T-9 or Slipit™. Figure 50. Lubrication points example. -36- 3.Replace the tray. It may be necessary to lift the back of the tray to get it into position.

G0659 9" x 14" Vertical Metal-Cutting Bandsaw tensioning/replacing v-belts V-Belt Pulley Alignment Tensioning/ Replacing V-Belt Periodically check the V-belt for signs of wear. If you notice one side of the belt is worn more than the other, the belt pulleys are likely misaligned. The correct alignment of the motor and lower wheel pulleys help to ensure proper power transmission and reduce V-belt heat and wear during operation. To ensure optimum power transfer from the motor to the blade without slipping, the V-belt must be in good condition and operate under proper tension. Blade tension is maintained by the weight of the motor and requires no adjustments. Check the condition of the belt at least every three months for signs of wear, slipping, or oiliness—check more often if the bandsaw is used daily. To align the V-belt pulleys: To check/replace the V-belt: 1.DISCONNECT FROM POWER! 2.Remove the right side base cover and use a straightedge across both pulleys, as shown in Figure 52, to check the pulley alignment. —If the pulleys are aligned, no further action is necessary. —If they are not aligned, continue with Step 3. 1.DISCONNECT BANDSAW FROM POWER! 2.Remove the right side base cover. 3. Make sure the motor and lower wheel pulleys are correctly aligned. 4.Inspect the V-belt for any signs of glazing, cracking, side wear, fraying, or any other excessive wear. —If the V-belt is in good shape, no further action is required. Replace the right side base cover. If not, continue below. Straightedge 5.Lift up on the motor to release pressure from the belt, then roll the belt off the motor pulley. Remove the belt.
