DATED 2-26-92 Detla Inter PART NO. 132063 rational Machinery С; SAFETY RULES “As with all machinery there are certain hazards involved with operation and use of the machine. Using the machine with respect and caution will considerably lessen the possibility of personal injury. However, if normal safety precautions are overlooked or ignored, personal injury to the operator may result. This machine was designed for certain applications only. Delta Machinery strongly recommends that this machine NOT be modified and/or used for any application other than for which it was designed. If you have any questions relative to its application DO NOT use the machine until you have written Delta Machinery and we have advised you. DELTA INTERNATIONAL MACHINERY CORP. MANAGER OF TECHNICAL SERVICES 246 ALPHA DRIVE PITTSBURGH, PENNSYLVANIA 15238 (IN CANADA: 644 IMPERIAL ROAD, GUELPH, ONTARIO N1H 6M?7) WARNING: FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE RULES MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY 1. FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, READ INSTRUCTION MANUAL BEFORE OPERATING THE TOOL. Learn the tool's application and limitations as well as the specific hazards peculiar to it. 2. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working order. 3. ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION. 4. GROUND ALL TOOLS. If tool is equipped with three- prong plug, it should be plugged into a three-hole elec- trical receptacle. If an adapter is used to accommodate a two-prong receptacle, the adapter lug must be attached to a known ground. Never remove the third prong. 5. REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed from tool before turning it “on.” 6. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and benches invite accidents. 7. DON’T USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. Don't use power tools in damp or wet locations, or expose them to rain. Keep work area well-lighted. 8. KEEP CHILDREN AND VISITORS AWAY. All children and visitors should be kept a safe distance from work area. 9. MAKE WORKSHOP CHILDPROOF - with padlocks, master switches, or by removing starter keys. 10. DON’T FORCE TOOL. It will do the job better and be safer at the rate for which it was designed. 11. USE RIGHT TOOL. Don't force tool or attachment to do a job for which it was not designed. 12. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. No loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry to get caught in moving parts. Nonslip foot wear is recommend- ed. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair. 13. ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Wear safety glasses (must comply with ANSI Z87.1). Everyday eye- glasses only have impact resistant lenses; they are not safety glasses. Also use face or dust mask if cutting opera- tion is dusty. 14. SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold work when practical. It’s safer than using your hand and frees both hands to operate tool. 15. DON'T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. 16. MAINTAIN TOOLS IN TOP CONDITION. Keep tools sharp and clean for best and safest performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories. 17.

Serious injury could occur if the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is accident- ally contacted. 21. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to ensure that it will operate properly and perform its intended function - check for alignment of mov- ing parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced. 22. DIRECTION OF FEED. Feed work into a blade or cutter against the direction of rotation of the blade or cutter only. 23. NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED. TURN POWER OFF. Don’t leave tool until it comes to a complete stop. 24. DRUGS, ALCOHOL, MEDICATION. Do not operate tool while under the influence of drug, alcohol or any medication. 25. MAKE SURE TOOL IS DISCONNECTED FROM POWER SUPPLY while motor is being mounted, con- nected or reconnected. 26. WARNING: The dust generated by certain woods and wood products can be injurious to your health. Always operate machinery in well ventilated areas and provide for proper dust removal. Use wood dust collection systems whenever possible. ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR BAND SAWS 1. ADJUST the upper guide about 1/8” above the material being cut. 2. MAKE SURE that blade tension and blade tracking are properly adjusted. 3. STOP the machine before removing scrap pieces from the table. 4. ALWAYS keep hands and fingers away from blade 5. CHECK for proper blade size and type 6. DO NOT attempt to saw stock that does not have a flat surface, unless a suitable support is used. 7. HOLD material firmly and feed into blade at a moderate speed. 8. TURN OFF machine if the material is to be backed out of an uncompleted cut. ‘9. MAKE “release” cuts before cutting long curves 10. SECURE STAND OR BENCH to the floor if there is any tendency for the saw to tip over, slide or walk on the supporting surface during operation. 11 DO NOT use the motor as a lifting point. 12. DO NOT remove jammed cut-off pieces until blade has stopped. UNPACKING “Carefully unpack the band saw and all loose items from the carton. ASSEMBLY ASSEMBLING TABLE 1. Place table (A) onto band saw frame making sure the blade travels through the slot in the table and that the mounting rib (B) on the frame engages with the groove on the inside of the trunnion (C) Fig. 2. 2. Fasten the table to the frame using the two table tilting lock knobs (D) Fig. 3. ASSEMBLING POINTER 1. Assemble the pointer (E) to the saw frame, as shown in Fig. 4, using screw (G). ASSEMBLING TABLE INSERT 1. Place the table insert (F) on the table, as shown in Fig. 5, and assemble the table alignment screw (Q), washer and wing nut (H) to the table. The washer and wing nut (H) are positioned below the table. FASTENING BAND SAW TO SUPPORTING SURFACE IF DURING OPERATION THERE IS ANY TENDENCY FOR THE MACHINE TO TIP OVER, SLIDE OR WALK ON THE SUPPORTING SURFACE, THE MACHINE MUST BE SECURED TO SUPPORTING SURFACE. CONNECTING BAND SAW TO POWER SOURCE POWER CONNECTIONS ) “A separate electrical circuit should be used for your tools. This circuit should not be less than #12 wire and should be protected with a 20 Amp time lag fuse. If an extension cord is used, use only 3-wire extension cords which have 3-prong grounding type plugs and 3-pole receptacies which accept the tools plug. For distances up to 100 feet use #12 wire. For distances up to 150 feet use #10 wire. Have a certified electrician replace or repair damaged or worn cord immediately. Before connecting the motor to the power line, make sure the switch is in the “OFF” position and be sure that the electric current is of the same characteristics as stamped on motor nameplate. All line connections should make good contact. Running low voltage will injure the motor. GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS "CAUTION: THIS TOOL MUST BE GROUNDED WHILE IN USE TO PROTECT THE OPERATOR FROM ELECTRIC SHOCK. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding pro- vides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord having an equipment-grounding conduc- tor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. Do not modify the plug provided - if it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conduc- tor can result in risk of electric shock. The conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the equipment-grounding conduc- tor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding conductor to a live terminal. Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded. 77 “ GROUNDED OUTLET BOX / / CURRENT CARRYING PRONGS SE 5 GROUNDING BLADE 2 IS LONGEST OF THE 3 BLADES Fig. 6 Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong ground- ing type plugs and 3-hole receptacles that accept the tool’s plug, as shown in Fig. 6. Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately. This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet and a plug that looks like the one shown in Fig. 6. A temporary adapter, which looks like the adapter illustrated in Fig. 7, may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle, as shown in Fig. 7, if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician. THIS ADAPTER IS NOT APPLICABLE IN CANADA. The green-colored rigid ear, lug, and the like, extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground, such as a properly grounded outlet box, as shown in Fig. 7. CAUTION: IN ALL CASES, MAKE CERTAIN THE RE- CEPTACLE IN QUESTION IS PROPERLY GROUNDED. IF YOU ARE NOT SURE HAVE A CERTIFIED ELEC- TRICIAN CHECK THE RECEPTACLE.

Tighten two blade guide screws (A) Fig. 14. FOR ALL BLADE SIZES 7. The lower blade guide bracket support (E) Fig. 14, should always be adjusted as close as possible to the table to properly support blade. Loosen two screws (F), move bracket (E) and tighten screws (F). SWITCH The switch (A) Fig. 16, is located on the front side of the band saw. To turn the saw ON, move the switch to the “up” position. To turn the saw OFF, move the switch to the “down” position. "WE SUGGEST THAT WHEN THE SAW IS NOT IN USE, THE SWITCH BE LOCKED IN THE “OFF” POSITION. This can be done by grasping the switch toggle (B) Fig. 17, and pulling it out of the switch. With the switch toggle (В) removed, the switch will not operate. However, should the switch toggle be removed while the saw is running, the saw can be turned OFF once, but cannot be restarted without inserting the switch toggle in the switch. CHANGING BLADES ‘Disconnect band saw from power source. 2. Release blade tension, remove side cover, upper blade guard (A) and table alignment screw (B) Fig. 18. 3. Carefully remove saw blade 4.

Frequently Answers and Questions
How do I adjust the blade tension?
Loosen the blade tension lock knob 1/4 of a turn by turning the knob counter-clockwise. Remove the side cover from the saw. Turn the blade tension adjusting knob clockwise until the blade is tensioned. Blade tension can be checked by pushing down on the blade midway between the two lower wheels. The blade should move slightly with firm finger pressure. After correct tension is obtained tighten the blade tension lock knob. Be careful not to overtension the blade. Too much tension may tend to cause blade breakage. Too little tension may cause the blade to slip on the wheels. Replace the side cover before operating the band saw.
How do I adjust the blade tracking?
Remove the side cover from the saw. Rotate the hand knob clockwise and check to see if the blade rides true, on the approximate center of the three wheels. If the blade rides forward or backward, the following adjustment must be made. Loosen the blade tension lock knob about 1/4 of a turn. Using the hex wrench supplied, turn the blade tracking adjusting screw slightly clockwise to move the blade to the rear and counter-clockwise to move the blade to the front. NOTE: Very little movement of the blade tracking adjusting screw is necessary. Tighten the blade tension lock knob. Rotate the hand knob clockwise to see if the blade rides on the approximate center of the wheels. Readjust if necessary until the blade tracks properly. Replace the side cover before operating the band saw.
How do I adjust the upper blade guide assembly?
The upper blade guide assembly should always be set about 1/8” above or as close as possible to the top surface of the workpiece being cut. Loosen the knob and position the guide assembly to the desired position.
How do I change the blades?
Disconnect the band saw from the power source. Release blade tension, remove side cover, upper blade guard, and table alignment screw. Carefully remove the saw blade. Replace the saw blade by reverse procedure. IMPORTANT: Teeth on saw blade must point down.
