Remove the shrink-wrap covering the machine, carefully as not to damage painted
surfaces, electrical or hydraulic parts. Carefully inspect the machine for physical damage. If
damage is noted, notify the truck line at once. They may require inspection, and that a claim be
filed. Check that all standard accessories are with the machine. Some accessories may be boxed or
placed behind access doors or chip drawer. (See figure 2 & 3) The band saws are provided with lifting
eyes that screw into the top of the machine. These lifting eyes may be located in any of the
compartments shown by arrows in figure 1 & 2 above. Particular care should be taken in selecting
areas of the machine for handling, as electrical components and adjustment knobs can be marked up
or damaged. WARNING: Machine table may NOT
be used as a lifting point. Damage to the saw
and alignment problems could result. Remove the mounting bolt nuts from the machine. Using the
lifting eyes, remove the machine from the skid and put in place. (See figure 1)

Location of the machine should take into consideration the ability to traverse
large work pieces. The machine is provided with holes in the base to anchor the unit to the floor.

on machined metal surfaces. Surfaces should be cleaned with the appropriate solvent and then coated
with a light film of oil.
