Mark work piece to be cut 2. Ensure you are wearing proper PPE, especially eye protection 3. Clean off saw table 4. Adjust height of blade guide 5. Install rip fence or miter guide if needed 6. Place work piece on table, not contacting blade 7. Start the saw 8. Push the work piece slowly through the saw along mark – use pushers if necessary – keep hands away from blade 9. When through with cut, stop the saw 10. Wait for it to come to a complete stop 11. Remove work piece and cuttings – they will be hot! Watch for sharp edges Hands-on Training – Jet Band Saw Common Maintenance Activities and Adjustments Adjusting blade tension and tracking Adjusting table angle and leveling Adjusting miter slot parallelism Adjusting blade speed (use table in manual) Changing saw blades (use gloves) Adjusting blade guides Hands-on Training – Jet Band Saw Troubleshooting Common Problems Excessive blade breakage: Material loose, incorrect speed or feed rate, teeth too coarse for material, incorrect blade tension, starting saw in contact with work piece, blade rubbing wheel flange (tracking), misaligned blade guides, cracking of blade weld Premature blade dulling: Blade teeth too coarse, blade speed too high, hard spots or scale on work piece, work-hardening of material (esp. stainless), insufficient blade tension, operating saw without pressure on work piece Bad cuts (out of square): Feeding too fast, guides out of adjustment, inadequate blade tension, dull blade, incorrect blade speed, loose blade guide assembly, loose blade guide bearing assembly, blade too far from wheel flanges, worn guide bearing Bad cuts (rough): Blade speed too high for feed rate, blade too coarse Blade twisting: Feeding too fast, blade tension too high Unusual blade wear on back or sides: Worn blade guides, blade guide bearings not adjusted, blade guide bracket loose Teeth missing or ripped from blade: Blade tooth pitch too coarse for material, feeding too slow or too fast, work piece vibrating, gullets loaded with chips Motor running too hot: Blade tension too high, drive belt tension too high, blade too coarse or too fine, speed reducer needs lubrication Excessive speed reducer noise or vibration: V-belt too tight Slamming or banging sound when cutting: Missing teeth, gullets loaded with chips Hands-on Training – Jet Drill Press Description Swing: 15 inches Spindle travel: 3-1/8 inches Maximum chuck capacity: 5/8 inch Maximum spindle to table distance: 29 inches Table size: 16.5 x 13 inches Speed range: 200-3630 RPM Weight: 161 lbs Hands-on Training – Jet Drill Press Key Parts Identification On/Off Switch Depth stop adjustment Work light switch Chuck Work table Pulley cover and pulleys Motor Downfeed handle Quill (chuck connects to quill) Crank lock (on opposite side) Table lock Column Work light (under) Base Return spring Table height crank handle Hands-on Training – Jet Drill Press Drilling a Hole 1.

Locate the correct drill bit and tighten it in the chuck 5. Adjust height (and angle if necessary) of the drill press table 6. Tighten locks on table height and angle adjustments 7. Align work piece mark with drill bit, using a piece of wood or spacer below piece to avoid drilling into table 8. Secure work piece to the table (a machine vise is a good investment) 9. Turn on drill press 10. Drill hole to required depth, avoid drilling into the table or machine vise 11. Pull drill out and stop motor 12. Allow drill to stop completely before reaching for work piece – watch for sharp cuttings Hands-on Training – Jet Drill Press Maintenance and Adjustments Refer to the Operating Instructions and Parts Manual available online Return spring adjustment Adjusting the depth stop gauge Changing spindle speeds (higher for wood, lower for metals) Replacing work light (underside of head) Lubrication – gear, rack, table height crank, spindle grooves, quill Hands-on Training – Jet Drill Press Troubleshooting Common Problems Will not start: Unplugged, fuse blown or breaker tripped, cord damaged, bad starting capacitor Does not come up to speed: Extension cord too light or too long, low current Vibrates excessively: Uneven surface for base, bad belt Noisy operation: Incorrect belt tension, dry spindle, loose spindle pulley, loose motor pulley Work piece burns: Incorrect speed, chips not clearing hole or bit, dull bit, feeding too slowly Drill bit wanders: Dull bit, bent bit, bit or chuck not installed properly, work piece moving or vibrating, did not use auto-punch to mark hole location Wood splinters on underside: No backing board used Drill bit binds in work piece: Work piece pinching bit (moving), excessive feed rate, chuck jaws not tight, improper belt tension Excessive drill bit runout or wobble: Bent drill bit, worn spindle bearings, bit or chuck not installed properly Quill returns too slowly or too fast: Improper spring return tension Chuck or arbor does not stay in place: Dirt, grease, etc. on arbor, chuck, or spindle Hands-on Training – Demonstrations Identify the main parts of the drill press and band saw Demonstrate use Each person use the drill press and band saw Training Your Team Members Plan training for your team, including annual refreshers Train your team members Be sure you keep a record of who is trained Have the record available in your bay Online files available which include: Copy of these presentation materials (Powerpoint) Copy of suggested written test Some example safety program materials Copies of Operating Instructions and Parts Manuals Q&A and Closing Questions and Discussion?
