Figure 5. Legs and braces attached to top.
3. Attach the four (4) legs to the inside of the
stand top and the four horizontal braces to
the inside of the legs as shown in Figure 5.
Use the
5
16"-18 x
5
8" carriage bolts,
5
16"-18
nuts, and
5
16" washers provided. The two
shorter braces are slightly wider than the
longer braces. When attaching the braces to
the legs, the longer braces rest inside the
two flanges of the shorter braces. The
square holes in the legs are angled to
accommodate the angle of the legs.
4. Attach the four (4) rubber feet to the legs.
Use four (4)
5
16"-18 x 1" hex head bolts, four
(4)
5
16" flat washers and four (4)
5
16"-18 nuts
provided. The bolts should go through the
pad first and then through the feet. Tighten
carefully so you do not deform the rubber
feet.
5. Slide the motor pulley onto the motor shaft
and tighten the setscrew down. The small
end of the pulley should be near the motor.
6. Flip the stand/motor assembly rightside-up
on the floor, but do not tighten the stand

Bandsaw Mounting Holes
Bandsaw To Stand
1. Safely lift the bandsaw onto the stand.
Ensure that the bandsaw step pulley is posi-
tioned over the hole in the stand.
2. Attach the bandsaw to the stand with four (4)
3
8"-16 x 2" hex bolts, four (4)
3
8"-16 hex nuts,
and eight (8)
3
8" washers provided. The bolts
on the left side should go through the motor
mount bracket. Hand tighten for now.
3. Position the bandsaw on the stand so that
the legs are evenly balanced and the stand
is symmetrical in appearance, rather than
lopsided. When the stand is positioned cor-
rectly on all four sides, tighten all the stand
nuts to secure it in place.
4. Working from the bottom up, tighten all stand
bolts, motor mount bracket to the stand top
(leave the motor bolts loose for now), and
the bandsaw mounting bolts at the holes
shown in Figure 6.
The bandsaw (without stand
and motor) weighs approxi-
mately 325 lbs. Use a lifting
device or get help from peo-
ple who can safely lift that
much weight. Serious per-
sonal injury may occur if
this warning is ignored.
