MOUNTING BAND SAW TO
WORKBENCH
See Figure 9.
If the band saw is to be used in a permanent applica-
tion, we recommend that you secure it in a permanent
location such as a workbench. When mounting the
saw to a workbench, holes should be ddlled through
the supporting surface of the workbench using the
dimensions illustrated in figure 9.
Each leg should be bolted securely using 5/16 in.
diameter machine screws, lock washers, and
5/16 in. hex nuts (not included). Screw length
should be 1-3/4 in. plus the thickness of the
workbench top.
Locate and mark the holes where band saw is to
be mounted.
Drill (4) 3/8 in. diameter holes through work-
bench.
Place band saw on workbench aligning holes in
the frame with holes drilled in the workbench.
Insert all four 5/16 in. screws and tighten se-
curely with lock washers and hex nuts.
Note: All bolts should be inserted from the top. Install
the lock washers and hex nuts from the underside of
the bench.
Supporting surface where band saw is mounted
should be examined carefully after mounting to insure
that no movement during use can result, If any tipping
or walking is noted, secure workbench or supporting
surface before beginning cutting operations.
