Unpacking
Due to modern mass production techniques, it is unlikely
that your GMC Power Tool is faulty or that a part is
missing. If you find anything wrong, do not operate the
tool until the parts have been replaced or the fault has
been rectified. Failure to do so could result in serious
personal injury.
Mounting
1. It is best to attach the band saw to a firm, stable
surface at a convenient working height. A work bench
is ideal.
2. Drill four 12 mm holes in the work bench to match the
four holes in the base of the saw.
3. Attach the band saw to the work bench using 8 mm
screws (inserted from the top), lock washers and nuts.
Assembly
The Band Saw is shipped partly disassembled and the saw
table and rip fence have to be installed prior to use.
1. Attach the trunnion to the
underside of the table using
the two screws, two washers
and two spring washers
supplied.
2. Place the table onto the saw
frame, threading the saw
blade through the slot in
the table.
3. Position the table so that the
trunnion rests in the groove on
the side of the frame.
4. Fasten the table to the frame
using the lock handle.
NOTE. To loosen the table, push
in the handle and turn the handle
a quarter turn anti-clockwise. To
re-tighten the table, push in the
handle and turn the handle
clockwise.
5. Insert the cheese head screw
in the hole in the top of the
table, add the washer then
screw on the wing nut.
6. Insert the table insert.
7. Position the fence on the
table, slide it to the desired
location and turn the fence
handle to lock the fence in
position.
8. If required, add the protractor
guide to one of the channels
in the table.
